Yeah, I think one, anytime you're asked to represent your country, I think it's an honor. Any ill will or hard foul or a buzzer beater, those things are never brought into the meeting room day one. We all leave that out. I think there's a great story with Coach K in 08. He wanted the egos to come into the room.

He felt that he can manage those big egos when you talk about Kobe, LeBron, D-Wade, Melo. He wanted that because he felt that we needed that to be able to be successful, and he was 100% right. But I think it's when you can have one goal, and that's just winning the gold medal. There is no who's the leading scorer, who's the leading assist, or who leads in rebounds or minutes.

one goal is just to win the game and that's it and move on to the next game until you are holding that gold medal and listening to that national anthem. And so I've been very fortunate to play on two national teams in 2000 in Australia and then 08 in China. And I thought that both teams have one goal and that was just to win a gold medal. And it was

I love that the officials are just out there getting cardio. I love that they're letting the players, you know, decide the game. Was that a foul or not a foul? That last shot by Timmy, you know. They said they made a mistake and missed the foul. But I think up to that point, that was an incredible game by both teams making big and difficult shots. The shot making in that game was incredible.
