RIO DE JANEIRO -- Ahoy there, Captain K.Mike Krzyzewski has warmed up to staying on a cruise ship during the Rio Olympics.The U.S. mens and womens Olympic basketball teams are being housed on the 196-cabin, Silver Cloud cruise ship and the luxurious accommodations have been a talking point even before the Americans arrival.Krzyzewski, who plans to step down as Team USAs coach after these games end, was asked by a French reporter about his teams living quarters following a 113-69 win over Venezuela on Monday.Coach K proceeded to go on a comical rant about his teams floating lodgings.Well, we dont live on a boat, he said. Were staying on a boat. I actually live in Durham, North Carolina. I have a swimming pool and once in a while I get on a raft and lie in there. But Ive never really thought about living on a boat. Since 1992 the U.S. teams have stayed in different locations and those are the accommodations here and that was good.The typically serious Krzyzewski was just clearing his throat.Its not our boat, he deadpanned, and were not the only people on the boat. There are other people on the boat that we see, that we say `good morning to and `hello. Weve actually made friends on the boat. I never knew I would have boat friends. In fact, now that Im talking about it, I might go buy a boat. But Id have to have a bigger swimming pool. Its a place to stay and were here to play basketball.And Ill tell you what, the people in Rio have been unbelievable as far as their treatment of us and their hospitality. Were fortunate to be here for the Olympics whether were on a boat or not.While his coach was on a roll, guard Jimmy Butler -- sitting next to Krzyzewski -smiled and mostly managed to keep a straight face.Butler, whose Olympic teammates say he doesnt like being on the water and isnt a fan of the ship, was also asked about the boat.I just do what Im told, he said. Im told to sleep on a boat, so I sleep on a boat.Krzyzewski didnt miss a chance to re-visit the vessel when the news conference ended.Im going to go back to the boat, he quipped. See you guys. I get seasick, too. Custom San Francisco Giants Jerseys . The 20-year-old Pelicans big man glanced up and smiled widely at the well-wishers -- a fitting end to a day he wont soon forget. Davis responded to his selection earlier in the day as a Western Conference All-Star with 26 points and 10 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans overcame a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves 98-91 on Friday night. Madison Bumgarner Jersey . -- Josh Sterk scored once and set up two more as the Oshawa Generals edged the visiting Belleville Bulls 3-2 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action. http://www.sfgiantsrookiestore.com/ . - Goaltender Philippe Desrosiers of the Rimouski Oceanic has broken a shutout record that was only three months old in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. Bruce Bochy Jersey .S. Open champion Justin Rose birdied the first hole with a blind shot he hit to a foot of the pin, and he stayed in front Tuesday until he completed a 4-under 67 for a two-shot lead over Jason Dufner in PGA Grand Slam of Golf. Austin Jackson Jersey . P.A. Parenteau scored early in the third period to help the Avs edge Toronto 2-1 on Tuesday night. Cory Sarich also scored for Colorado (3-0-0), which is off to its best ever start. Melbournes Lynden Dunn admits he is frustrated at plying his trade in the VFL but says the lure of an elusive maiden finals campaign has him motivated for the future.The 29-year-old has long been a mainstay in the Melbourne backline but a combination of injury, poor form and the clubs emerging key defenders means Dunn has only played four senior games in 2016.The last of them was against St Kilda in Round 6, when Melbourne copped a 39-point reality check as Nick Riewoldt and Tim Membrey ran riot.Dunn told ESPN he deserved to be demoted after the Saints game, but the 165-game veteran said he knew what he needed to do to break back into the senior side.It [my season] has been frustrating - it certainly hasnt gone how Id planned it, he said.Being injured in pre-season, coming into the team to play a handful of games and then being dropped after the St Kilda game - which was fair enough - going back to the VFL and then injuring my hamstring four weeks ago. Its not ideal. Throw in a few [VFL] byes and Ive only played two games in the past two months. Its been very frustrating.But I just need to force my way back in. I had a meeting with Roosy [coach Paul Roos] last week, [and I] have to build a consistent block of benchmark performances.Weve got some really good young key defenders in the seniors at the moment - Tom McDonald has been holding the fort, with [McDonalds younger brother] Oscar and Sam Frost, who have been developing really well, so its hard not to play them if theyre doing a good job, and I love seeing them play well.After making his name as a rugged man-on-man defender, Dunn said he had also struggled to adapt to the Demons new zone defence.It certainly is a lot different; I think the media has put their own spin on our zone defence, but its definitely different than we have had in the past, he said.ddddddddddddaving played a certain way your whole career, its difficult at times getting your head around it and the way the game is heading, but thats just modern footy. But I feel Ive made some real inroads this year with the game style, and Ive dropped a few kilos, Im moving better, but I just have to string some quality games together and force my way back in.Dunn arrived at Melbourne as the 15th pick in the 2004 national draft. Since then the Demons have endured a decade of turmoil, tragedy and shocking on-field results.Dunn steps into womens footy roleBut the club finally appears to be on the right track this season, playing an attacking brand of football and unearthing several talented youngsters to sit 10th on the ladder with a 7-8 record.Dunn, whose contract runs until the end of 2017, said he was determined to play on at the Demons and was motivated by the thought of finally breaking his AFL finals duck.[I am] contracted for next year and I plan to fulfil that at the Dees, he said.I think I have my best footy ahead of me - Ive got no doubt Ive got a new contract left in me and I feel like Ive got plenty to offer at AFL level.Its my 12th season at the Dees and weve hit rock bottom more than once, [but] seeing the group now, not just the players but the footy department, the whole club itself and our supporters, its so exciting.Finals is basically why I play footy; I want to play finals at Melbourne - we havent played finals since 2006 and Ive never played in an AFL final so thats a huge motivation for me. Were playing some really good footy at times this year but we need to string together consistent quality performances and learn to string wins together.
