One guy could do this, another guy couldn't." Krzyzewski's vibe has fired up the team; the practices are crisp and competitive. "The way he can connect with everybody, it's unbelievable," says Brad Miller, Team USA big man (at 7 ft.), who plays for the Sacramento Kings...

...close the meal, Mo bestowed a celestial gift upon us in the form of dessert wine, this one a 2002 from Château Memoires Cadillac in Sauternes, France. Imagine a glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice laced with a sweet fragrance and no bitterness, and the flavor of this magnificent wine comes into focus.
