Coach K raves over Aussie guard
St. Mary's College guard Patrick Mills considered putting his name into the NBA draft after his freshman year but opted to return to school. But after the 5-foot-11-inch Australian guard scored 20 points off the bench against the United States and 22 against Argentina, he showed he was capable of playing in the NBA now. "I'm glad my Duke team doesn't play St. Mary's," said US coach Mike Krzyzewski. "He is a great guard and he will be an NBA guard." Said Mills, "I played against the best [in the Olympics] and I take a lot from it and learned a lot. I'm much better."

If he can score 20 points against Kobe Bryant defense, Dwyane Wade defense, Chris Paul defense, and Lebron defense, he's good.

Americans were in control the entire game even when they were down early on. The thing is we didn't play team defense because of the absence of big men on our team.
A gold medal is a gold medal.

Kidd Giving Gold Medal To Wynn's Wife
Aug 24, 2008 12:56 PM EST
Elaine Wynn, who is married to casino owner Steve Wynn, was promised by Jason Kidd that he would give her his newest Olympic medal if the Americans won the gold.
"It's not a (gambling) marker or anything like that," Kidd told The Arizona Republic. "She's just a great friend and a really great person."
They met last year when Kidd and the USA team stayed at the Wynn while training in Las Vegas.
"Last summer, we stayed at the Wynn for (what seemed like) a lifetime, close to three weeks," Kidd said. "We met at a banquet, we got to talking, and she really understands the game.
"I told her I'd make a deal with her, that if we won the gold medal, I'd give it to her. She thought I was kidding. But I told her I had one already, and the way they treated us at the Wynn, it was the least I could do."
now this is news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could kidd have LA!D the smackdown on her or was he getting advice from kryobe on how to buy your way out of trouble (after waving the wand around the h0es) or even he may have had shaq on his mind after from some unknown cell phone calls with heavy breathing down the line
team USA is all class, give kidd a medal for his gesture.

drMcNinja: He posted it before I said it. FanNation deleted that comment so winkstrap posted it again.
However it still stands. I'm tired of winkstrap posting BS stories and calling it news. He's full of crap.
