USA basketball players take in Beijing games

Am I the only one who thinks Melo is not one of the nicest people to be around? He looks completely bored and anti-social in that second picture. And look at his (Melo's) left hand in the picture where they are standing for the anthem. That is a sign of disrespect to his own country, IMO. (Yes, I know that girl in front of him is holding the rail, too, but she looks like she's doing it not to lose balance, Melo just looks like standing for the national anthem is a burden to him.)

That's so funny that you pointed that out, yet you failed to realize that in that same picture, Kobe Bryant had bot his hands BEHIND his back while everyone else had their right hands over their heart.



Thats pretty **** up if you ask me.

Are you serious? I thought putting your hands behind the back is a sign of respect...to be honest I have never put my hands over my heart.

Again, you and the OP are taking the picture too seriously.

tat was a nice butt

I hope that chick doesn't complain about guys always checking out her behind. It's impossible to miss.

Women's Beach Volleyball, best semi recent addition to the Olympics by far.

[RipCity7]

Even our president is getting some action from the same person Kobe and LeBron are checking out

[britblazerdude]

Those pictures are pretty cool. I saw Jason Kidd at a badminton match on NBC. lol.

But dude, at least Kobe has his hands around his back unlike the "enlightened one"

Same here. As long as you're standing at attention, as Kobe clearly is, that's all that really matters.

I read in another thread on another site how people were furious at Mike Phelps for laughing on the medal podium earlier in the Olympics -- without noting that he was laughing because the national anthem cut off abruptly.

Some folks have way, way too much time on their hands.

True, I didn't notice that, because I didn't even know about that. Only a handful of nations put their right hands over their heart during the anthem, and I saw in before the game against China, even some of the players were confused what to do.

[Don Draper]

Kobe's at it again. More diamonds for Vanessa.

Lebron checking out that ass.

Melo coming to the realization he's not as good as he thought he was.

Тhere are different ways to salute the anthem, like putting had over your heart, two hands behind your back, two hand right to your body and the people from Paraguay are doing military salute over theyr hearts.

[GuyverX]

You guys ever watch the national anthem before any NBA game? Some players put their hand over their heart and some don't. It's not really a big deal. Usually guys will just put their hands behind their back and look down. I can't believe I just defended Kobe...

[The Main Event]

Does it really make a difference how they stand during the national anthem? GET OVER IT. . haha.

[FlashTheKilla]

Wade was too busy with Star Jones to attend.

Dwight Howard is not allowed to sit in the stands because other people cannot see around him.

No, I think there was a matinee of Kung Fu Panda in the cinema.

[thebossman]

guys guys, calm down. Its just a picture.

We all know melo is a lazy bum... and not a "nice guy"

the real question is...

How old is Lebron?

We now know he wears a headband to hide his receding hair line, so what 28? 32?

I know I'm not picking him up for fantasy in a few years, he'll be gray'ing by then.
