With the Beijing Olympics 40 days away, it is clear that Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski has somehow molded a group of ego-strutting, unquestionably talented NBA players into a cohesive team. Kobe Bryant talked about "Coach K" with Jonathan Abrams: "Above all else, he just wants to see his players play well and he wants to win. He communicates that beautifully to his players." Meanwhile, Bryant is asked about Shaquille O'Neal, but has virtually nothing to say about his former teammate's freestyle rap.
