The Olympic Games of Beijing have come and gone and as always there are many lasting impressions. One of the greatest impressions was made by the United States Men's Basketball team. Led by NBA stars, Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Wade, Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James, Team USA won the Gold Medal replacing the one U. S. lost in Athens four years ago.
On this edition of Sports Spectrum Today, we talk about the Olympic basketball team with one of our basketball analysts, long time college coach, C. J. Woollum. C. J. will share his thoughts on the final game against Spain.
He also talks about the use of the NBA players in the Olympics and how the NBA players seem to be embracing the concept of playing for their country.
