… And Olympic Games for All

The Olympic Games are just beginning, but most of the people look forward to see the new basketball champion. Everyone is talking about the new `Dream team`, pointing at USA as one of the best team in London. American players won the warm-ups just before the London Games. They have impressed with a strong play and excellent teaming. There is no doubt that the American basketball games will be the most visited events at the Olympic Games, more popular even than the British participation.
For almost twenty years NBA has become the most popular and recognizable basketball championship in the world. People still remember the great players from the `90s and their powerful teams. These players have been the base of the American `Dream team` from the 1992nd Barcelona Games. Since FIBA allowed players from NBA to participate in the Olympic Games, the Americans are always a factor in the tournament.
The basketball is considered as a traditional American sport. Most people do not know that as a modern sport basketball has been established by an American teacher. To be part of the American basketball team is a matter of pride. Already famous and rich, the NBA monsters gather to execute beautiful and attractive basketball.
Nowadays the NBA is a home for many players outside the USA. The level of the national teams is higher than decades ago. The biggest opponents of the American team are Spain, Argentina, France, Russia, China, Germany, Serbia and Italy. In most of these teams, there are players that take part in the NBA circus.
Can we expect another American victory, or the title will go another team?! The European teams are hungry for glory and they will not hesitate anymore and miss the chances of another Olympic Games.
