Coach Chancellor took Yo Griffith for the last spot on Team USA. Coach Laimbeer isn't happy about it.

“I’m sending a letter to the WNBA office, USA Basketball and to Van Chancellor to tell them of my disappointment,” Laimbeer said. “Ruth and Cheryl sacrificed money (to play professionally overseas) so they could concentrate on the Olympic team. She (Griffith) refused to sacrifice money, played professionally during the off-season, and they took her anyway despite the fact she didn’t participate in the Olympic team’s training (camps and sessions).”
