James makes right move
Basketball phenom LeBron James will play for Team USA at this year's world championships and the 2008 Olympics, according to published reports citing the head of USA Basketball.
This is a refreshing change from what has been a disturbing trend. Many of the NBA's biggest names are more than happy to skip out on the Olympics, because, in their view, there's nothing for them to gain by playing in the Summer Games. To some of today's stars, it's all about CTC (cutting the check). James, on the other hand, clearly sees the value in representing his country.
