Chatting With LeBron

Team USA's LeBron James sat down with FIBA to give his thoughts on the team's bronze-medal performance at the World Championship and what the future holds for the American team."After the FIBA World Championship 2006 in Japan, FIBA has announced its new world ranking for men's national teams," according to a report on FIBA.com. "After claiming the bronze medal, USA was able to defend its first position before Argentina." "Two hospitals, named for two mothers. One is mired in the past; the other represents beaten-down Congo's hopes for a better future," according to an Associated Press report on FORBES.com. "The 2,000-bed Mama Yemo, named after the mother of Mobutu Sese Seko, the late strongman, was once the pride of Central Africa. Now the public facility is in such bad shape that patients must bring their own medicine and are barred from going home until they pay their bills. Across town stands brand-new Biamba Marie Mutombo Hospital, partly financed by Dikembe Mutombo, a child of Kinshasa who became a Houston Rockets basketball star."
