and we're back... the summer was always a time when i got to travel around and do fun stuff. as a kid, me and my friends, we did the aau thing and traveled across the country playing basketball against other teams and getting to see some cool places.
this summer though, I had the travel experience of a lifetime. beijing, china. man, was that a trip. it's been a couple of weeks since we've been back from the olympics, and of course been doing lots of traveling, to california for some marketing appearances, to toronto to promote a new documentary movie... but i haven't stopped thinking about winning that gold medal.
wow, what a feeling. to be able to make a commitment like that and then be able to accomplish it, that is a great feeling for me as an individual, for us as a team and for us as a country. nothing will top being able to represent my country. i don't take that lightly.
our team was made up of some of the best players in the world, but it was important for us not just as individuals. i think we all felt pressure of bringing the glory of basketball back to where it began, for the usa. and to be able to say that the united states of america is number one once again, it's a great feeling.
something else that i'm really involved with and committed to is another project i've been involved with this summer. it's called the 50 million pound challenge and it's something i'm passionate about it because it's about all of our health. yours, mine, everyone's. i do a lot of training and conditioning, but everyone should be doing that - staying active, keeping your weight down and staying fit should be a big part of everyone's life.
a lot of people look at me and say, "well you have to, because you're an NBA player, and you have to be fit." but we're talking about people being fit because it limits health hazards. this can be life or death, seriously. so if you're overweight as a young person, check out their website. there's so much you can do and should do to improve your health as you grow up.
til next time...
