"There was so much negativity surrounding the team. I just felt people thought, Here's twelve African-Americans, let's talk about their not playing hard, or their not doing this or doing that. Maybe it was a race thing, I don't know. I wanted them to win that semifinal game and win the gold, just to kinda shut everybody up."
Anna Vamvoudakis (fan, Greece): The U.S. players think they're sexy. They try to talk to you. They flirt. They say things like, "I need someone to show me around town." But they don't. What they need is who can shoot.

Popovich: Against Argentina, Tim was officiated like he's never going to be officiated in the NBA. There were times he was absolutely knocked to the floor, kicked over, and trampled—and no call?
Tim Duncan (center, Team USA): FIBA sucks.
Graeber: Duncan was on the pavement between two garbage cans, flat on his back. He looked like he was homeless. People had to step around him to pass. He didn't move for a long time. He ended up sitting against the wall between the waste cans, in the dark, with his hands covering his face. He was crying, I think.
perfect storm to take tim out of that tournament completely. they had to sink or swim with hardcore nba guards (iverson, marbury) playing some weird brand of eurobasket hoops.
