Good stuff on Battier

August 6th, 2006

Richard Justice of the Houston Chronicle has a good piece on Shane Battier and his importance to Team USA. He still may not make the 12-man roster (currently numbers 14) for the World Championships, but the attributes he is showing may be just what the Rockets need.

Also, I found this video diary of Battier taped in Vegas a couple of weeks ago when the USA team first started training. It should give you further insight into his basketball philosophy, etc.
