Hopefully the San Antonio Spurs have a long playoff march en route to another NBA title. Currently, the team is leading their first-round series versus the Utah Jazz 2-0 but coming around the corner this summer is the 2012 Olympics where the Spurs will be heavily represented.

Tony Parker, Boris Diaw, Manu Ginobili, Tiago Splitter, and Patty Mills will be representing their respective home country in London but for Mills, he is glad Australia didn't get grouped with Team USA, France and other powerhouse teams but knows the Aussies will have their work cut out for them.

'We were all talking about the draw at [Spurs] practice this morning,'' Mills said. ''It's a great group. Brazil's in there and Great Britain, China, and Spain, and the other group is tough too, but we can definitely do our research on those teams in our group and we can be very, very competitive.
