Something about them qualifying for the Olympics... we know almost all of the NBA players who are healthy are going to want to play for the team. There almost certainly won't be room on the roster for guys like Ejim and Scrubb. And in addition to them, there are so many other guys who have given so much to getting Canada to this point, playing in the qualifiers that NBA players aren't available for. So I'd like to think that even if the NBA players who are there this year might care more about the Olympics next year, they recognize that there are guys on the team who have given a lot, and will never be this close to an international medal again.

Basically, I'd just love Ejim and Scrubb to get medals because I've got so much respect and appreciation for what they and all the other qualifying-tournament guys have put into this program.
