2008 Olympics: Notes, Stories & Observations





Re: USA vs China on NOW

they are killing us behind the 3point line....do you think its because of the difference in the measurements of the line? i think in china..the line is shorter...*shrug*

There is not a more dominant player in the NBA than LJ.... He is just too strong.
 
Re: USA vs China on NOW

The US can't say give me a 3pt basket. More proof that it's all mental, in the NBA that would be a 2pt shot, but some some reason because they know it's a 3pt shot they can't buy a basket even though it's a shorter range.

I heard a report that the FIBA is contemplating moving the three-point line back for the next Olympics and going to the NBA lane instead of the international one. The international three-point line has been the great equalizer for teams playing against the United States.

If that happens, I don't see how international teams can keep up.

That's true. Those baby 3 pointers are no more than mid-range jump shots. Move that line back 3 or 4 ft and watch that 3-point percentage plummet.
 
I am watching the Olympic gymnastics competition on NBC.......and I had to make an observation......one of the commentators eluded to this also....According to the rules the gymnasts have to be at least 16 years old to compete.....but there is no focking way those female Chinese gymnasts are 16 years old.....:smh:

You think President Bush is going to vent America's ills during the Olympics while the whole world is watching? Even he is not that stupid.
 
Re: Just an observaton from the Olympics Ladies Gymnastics Competition......

Yeah, they don't look 16 at all. They are really small.
