Just put together this instrumental for a contest Nike is running to create an anthem for the the 2008 Beijing Olympics US Men’s Basketball team.

Says Nike:

This summer Team USA will battle in Beijing to take back what’s ours, the gold medal. Get in the game and be a part of USA Basketball’s official theme song for the 2008 Olympics. For your chance to be featured on the anthem, record a verse showing your support for Kobe, LeBron, J-Kidd and the rest of the squad.

UPDATE: Shaq tells Stephen A. Smith that it was all jokes.

“I was freestyling. That’s all. It was all done in fun. Nothing serious whatsoever. That is what mc’s do. They freestyle when called upon. I’m totally cool with Kobe. No issue at all. And by the way, don’t forget, six albums, two platinum, two gold. Anybody who knows me knows I’m a funny freestyler. Check the NBA DVD when I was wrapping about Vlade Divac during my first championship run. Please tell everybody don’t make something out of nothing.”
