Why do NBA players travel EVERY single time they get the ball outside the 3 point line? I'd really love to hear a whistle one time when Wade (or Kobe, Lebron, Redd, etc.) catches the ball and then waddles around to his preferred position on the permieter without putting the ball on the floor. I can usually tolerate it in NBA games, but it really makes me cringe in FIBA games.

Other than for Patrick Mills, this was a painful game to watch.

The get away with it in the NBA since it isn't a sport it is entertainment.

In the FIBA games the refs are terrible.

lol front page news of my local paper. Quality journalism right there.

Let's not exaggerate.

I'm not an NBA fan but this is pretty much bullshit.

It's not the WWE but it isn't just pure sport. And I am a fan of the NBA.

One of the poker sites I have in my RSS quoted another US Olympian as saying he would often play online 10 hours a day as well. No indication of which site or screen name though. I didn't know if him playing poker was legit or a level - the site was Wicked Chops Poker and, in addition to their penchant for scantily clad women, they like to...stir the pot...from time to time. Guess it seems to be legit!

Unlikely that I'll run into him this Sunday while I'm there though...

Apparently Phelps plays on Full Tilt, not sure his screen name but there have been suggestions in threads on P5's. Also SCTrojans says he would give phelps free coaching so wonder what might happen if he actually does that.
