A Fool-Proof Plan For Beating Team USA
Yahoo Sports Aug 30 2003
"These guys (opponents) don't play it at a level like a Vince Carter or Tracy McGrady or myself," Iverson said. "They play it with their minds. They are more like a John Stockton-Karl Malone-type players and coach (Team USA coach Larry Brown) is always saying how good it is for kids. And, it really is. "These guys don't have all the physical ability but they are able to win basketball games because they play the right way."

O'Neal Could Have Handled The Truth
Indianapolis Star Aug 29 2003
"I'm going to come back, be a professional and play for the Pacers this year, and I'm going to approach this season the same way I approach every season," O'Neal said before leaving for the U.S. game against Puerto Rico. "But outside of this year, I don't know where my future stands with the Indiana Pacers. I don't know where the trust is. I don't know if I can believe anything they tell me anymore."

From A Bird's-eye View
ESPN.com Aug 28 2003
"Doesn't it all make sense now? Carlisle gets canned in Detroit and decides to sit out a year and wait patiently for his next NBA opportunity. I'm sure Bird told him he wouldn't be waiting long. Bird just needed to fix his O'Neal problem before implementing the plan."

Scary thought: This Gold-Medal Thing Might Not Be A Gimme For The U.S.
SI.com Aug 26 2003
"The scary thing for the U.S. is that it really didn't play a bad game. Team USA shot 53 percent from the floor, outrebounded Argentina 35-21 and generally played hard throughout. It's just that the Argentines, showing their trademark grit and teamwork, matched them pretty much every step of the way.
Apparently, this Olympic gold-medal thing is not going to be a gimme."

"If I don't get the ball, though, it won't make any difference at all," he said. "A lot of people talk about me as if I had a weight problem. The only problem I had was waiting for the ball. So, run it through the Diesel. I'm mad and I'm ready to go."
