Argentina is entering the 2008 Beijing Olympics hoping to win their second consecutive gold medal in basketball. In 2004, Argentina was led by Manu Ginobili to an improbable Olympic championship.
Today, the Olympics had their opening ceremonies. Manu Ginobili was chosen to carry the flag from Argentina. If Argentina is to win another gold in basketball, Manu Ginobili will once again need to carry the team. It’s more unlikely this year but Argentina isn’t a team to ever count out.
