A scrolling cartoon of Washington's life will be projected on one wall. A theater will show an action flick about Washington at war. The audience's seats will...
...After all, he was supposed to be Team USA's savior, plucked from his perch atop Duke University to salvage America's international basketball pride following a sixth-place finish at the 2002 Worlds and bronze at the Athens Olympics. Hailed as the perfect blend of disciplinarian (he attended West Point), patriot and motivator, Coach K was the man for the job of assuaging millionaire egos and returning basketball gold to its rightful home, the inner-city blacktops and sweaty YMCA gyms in which the sport was reared...
