I Love Basketball – Olympic Style

Any reader of this blog knows that I love NBA basketball.  (The Lakers got Dwight Howard.  Not sure what to make of it.  More on thoughts on that later.)  The 2012 Olympics  were must see television for me for the chance to see our best athletes compete in track (women rule), gymnastics (Gabby Douglas), swimming (Michael Phelps), tennis (Serena Williams) and basketball.

Congratulations to both squads for bringing home the gold.

Like most people in the world, I’ve been watching the Olympics.  Isn’t this amazing?
