It’s possible he won’t ever get that tenacity to be next level great. That's some lazy-ass thinking. Is there something about kwame's "culture" and the way he was raised? kandi's? darko's? griffin's (rip)? So he's tall, but at 7'6 he's just not going to be explosive like that, and he's too old to really expect any more development. But hey, Rik Smits + is still a pretty good player. @gee

They'll struggle to win a single game in the Olympics. On the other hand, Australia is a realistic outside medal chance. Unless, of course, they only finish fourth in their group and play the USA in the second round. They have an excellent frontcourt by international standards, and their starting 2G was drafted by the Rockets last year and will be competing against Childress next season in Greece. St. Mary's Pat Mills will be the key for them though. Blue,

I still wonder sometimes how much Yao is really into the game of basketball itself. I wonder if he has the real desire and passion of winning at all cost. I just think between his culture and the way he was raised dude just don't care enough to a certain degree. It's possible he won't ever get that tenacity to be next level great. I like Yao and all (although I take Dwight Howard over dude right now in less than a heartbeat) he just missing that nasty I'm going to dominate you all streak. I just wonder.
