Ray Allen said the same thing a while back. Obviously, what Wade is saying is stupid.
I agree, but the problem with that is its nearly impossible to draw the line between who is and isn't an amateur these days. And even more impossible for the Olympic committee to determine the truth.. Some countries will help hide the truth about certain athletes, while others such as China will have an unfair advantage because their athletes are training is paid for by the state. Athletes with talent and potential are seperated from their parents at a very young age and put in state run training camps with the sole purpose of winning medals at world events.
Yup in 1988 for example we sent college kids and the Russians sent fuckin Arvydas Sabonis, a 7 foot 3 center who played professionally in Russia and was a total beast, that was not fair to expose our kids to that.
