NBA Essentials ranks our six favorite stories of the day, hastily culled during USA-Greece. Please excuse typos, PeteJayhawk.

1. New York Times. Carmelo Anthony depends on Skype and 14,000 songs on his iPod to get him through the Olympics.

2. Hardwood Paroxysm. David Sparks take positional reclassificiation to the extreme.

3. Washington Post, via TrueHoop. Dwyane Wade does not eat vegetables, and frankly he's surprised you're surprised.

4. Truth About It. Among these "rejected Wizards slogans" is this winner: "Washington Wizards: Supermanning That Ho!" DeShawn Stevenson voted in favor.

5. Sacramento Bee. Geoff Petrie is somewhere in Sacramento chewing on his fingernails vigorously.

6. Arizona Republic. Kobe Bryant is among those skeptical about Chris Kaman's decision to play for Germany.

*BONUS*: This essential Wade-to-Kobe alley-oop must be watched repeatedly before the Olympidrones remove the video.
