lol @ Dwight

I wish I could be any of those NBA players in Beijing to experience the awesome opening ceremonies. I hate that I can't be there to attend, it truly looks amazing.

Really?

Is the Ralph Lauren logo big enough??

You know, looking at these pics it's not hard for me to see why these guys or anyone would want to compete in the Olympics. That's pretty epic looking, they even have their digital cameras out, that's something they'll remember forever, an arena full of thousands and thousands of people and just being a part of all that. I haven't really thought about it in any other way than 'oh it's just another Olympics', but then I see that pic with Tayshaun holding his camera like a tourist and it makes me think, wow an event so big even these stars are really into it.

When these guys bring out their cameras, you know its serious.

Didn't surprise me in the slightest.

Imagine the Dream Teams annual salary compared to the other olympic teams.
