I think you're trying to make a point with this. And I'm certainly not against the sarcasm. But I'm not clear on the point. Are you saying that the Olympics are are a reasonable exception? I might buy that if you are.
But if he deserved a good sized break because of 2 condensed NBA seasons, and a hard core Olympic run (I'm sure he did deserve it), I'd still like to see him get the diet and conditioning thing worked out in general.

Oh, wait. Or did you just use a distraction technique! That almost worked!!!! You're good, you.
So, back to Dirk. Was he "known to show up out of shape"? Or did he do it just once in 20 years?
