| Too funny! You almost have to feel sorry for these guys, at least they wanted to play. The ones who deserve our wrath are the ones who said no. |

I feel bad for coach Brown, who can't do anything about/with a bunch of spoiled brats (Stoudemire excluded).
At least Brown got "some" credit after he defected to Angola & beat the US team
The article forgot to include WNBA teaching the men team play :lol: |

| I'm sorry I disagree with that, I don't feel sorry for Larry BRown at all...he isn't doing a very good job...He leaves certain players in for entirely too long. Lebron should have played most of the game today, and why hasn't Emeka Okafor played 1 minute....Carmelo and Lebron should have played more in the first game as well...I get the feeling LB doesn't like the young players. |

Emeka Okafor is not a spoiled brat. |

so sorry... she says verrry humbly. I know Emeka isn't a spoiled brat and I've heard that from reliable sources. It's just that Stoudemire is from Phx, so I kinda know that 1st hand.
I'm not saying I approve of Brown's leaving the youngsters sitting. He should be doing what Van does. If 1st team isn't doing the job, bring in the 2nd team. Maybe then the veterans will realize their
s--t stinks like everyone elses. What I read is that he thinks young players have to pay their dues before he considers them playable. The problem is there's not time for that in the olympics. So you're feeling is kinda right.
I feel sorry for him in that the brats won't listen to him or follow his instructions. If you recall, the Pistons played team ball because that's the way he coached them. |
