    LeBron on USA: Q & A

    Q. How much international travel have you done?

    A: I went to Italy and stayed there for two weeks on an All-Ohio team.

    Q: Have you played under international rules before?

    A: Yes. It was fun. You can take the ball off the rim. It?s less physical on the perimeter but more physical underneath the basket. I like the wider lane. There?s also no defensive three-second rule. That?s fine. But it?s really all about going out and competing.

    Q: What do you think of playing with Dwayne Wade?

    A: He?s good, athletic. He thinks the game. He?s a little older than I am, so I respect his game. He?s come a long way. He had a knee injury at college at Marquette. He got his strength back up and now he?s one of the best, young, exciting players in the league.

    Good article. It must be frustrating for LeBron to adjust to international rules. His signature drop step move is probably not allowed since they call traveling on almost every play.

    exactly. I think the nba made asmart move in putting their rook on this team.
    It sorta like the l is trying to make thes e rooks mature faster int heir game because they know theses guys and others to come hold the nbas future in their hands.

    the only problem i see is evertime i tune into the olypics games lebron is always benched. Have alot of you guys een lebron play on the USA team. because i dont think i have.

    I actually believe that Dwayn Wade will have just as a successful career or mabey better than LeBron's. The kid is just so driven that it impresses me. Wade has superstar written all over him, hopefully Miami finds a quality starting pg so Dwane can focus playing his position instead of running plays.
