It looks like John Cox scored 14 the other night for Venezuela. They are in group B. Any thoughts on whethe he gets to play his cousin?

Venezuela is not in the Olympics, so that is an amazing feat indeed!

Go team USA!!! Cannot believe they have to pay taxes on their Gold Medals! Good luck to all those courageous athletes, I have watched with so much pride, and even shed a tear for the losers, but none of them are... losers, they are in the Olympics!

In my view, our IRS should be giving them a huge refund for their medals won. What about PR? And what about just our country's pride?

The Olympians should NOT pay any taxes for their Gold and what is the point of playing the country if they get taxed. The Olympians are already playing for the country and that should be enough. Now, I see why Wade and Allen mentioned that the NBA Players in the Olympic should be compensated. However, I disagree with it, however, if they are getting taxed then maybe they are on to something. Whatever did happen to playing for your country with honor and getting taxed.

The Lakers can use John Cox and Jerome off the bench

Well, I think Kobe should say something to Jim Bus about having his cousin coming off the bench for the Lakers. John Cox can play ball and playing with him at Koret with also Jerome Gumbs. The Lakers can use both of them. Maybe Kobe should pull some strings and help his cousin out. I would really like to see a U.S.F. Dons player in the NBA again.
