More on this storyline
Dwyane Wade: ‘We’ve been respecting the rest of the world since 2004, since we won the bronze medal in ’04, and every year it gets better and better. The game grows around the world. It’s exposed, anyone has an opportunity. You can’t hide anything anymore, you get to see it all. Serbia, France, Canada, Germany, they will be back in four years. There’s 68 NBA players in this field alone and will probably be more in another four years, so the world is all good at the game of basketball. It is the US game, we continue to keep dominating the game when it comes to gold medals, but it’s not going to be easy. This is not 1992, everybody needs to get that out of their minds.’ -via reddit / August 12, 2024
