RIO DE JANEIRO - The beaches and glamour of Rio de Janeiro havent yet convinced LeBron James that he should come back in two years for a shot at a third Olympic gold medal.James has spent several days in Rio preparing for Saturdays NBA preseason game against his former Miami Heat teammates, but reiterated on Friday that its too early to make a decision about the Olympics.Im undecided, James said at the club facilities of Flamengo, Brazils most popular soccer team, where both teams are practicing. Its not until 2016. I got two years. I got a long time.James and two other Cavalier teammates — Kevin Love and Kyrie Irving — have been picked in a national pool that will be used to select the 2016 mens team for the United States, which has won gold at the last two Olympics and in five of the last six.Irving, who said he will sit out Saturdays game with a sprained right ankle, would be playing in his first Olympics if picked.Obviously to be in the pool of guys is a great honour, he said.Love left no doubt he wants to play again, after winning gold two years ago in London.Playing for my country has done a lot of things for my career, he said. It has afforded me a great opportunity to get better. Wearing the USA across the chest was a great way to feel patriotic. I hope that I have another chance in 2016 to be here.Heat duo Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade won gold in 2008, but are out of the pool and said its time for others to take over.Ive done it and I want other guys to experience it, Bosh said. Trying to chase that experience I had in 08 — Im not going to be able to fulfil that. I was a younger guy and I was single and I had a lot more time.Wade made it clear that training and playing with the Olympic team after a full NBA season is a young mans job.I did my time, he said. Obviously its the younger guys time to have the opportunity to win that gold medal.Luol Deng, who joined the Heat this summer as a free agent after 10 seasons with the Chicago Bulls, played with Britain at the 2012 Olympics when the team qualified automatically as host.He is unlikely to get that chance again. Britain has cut funding for Olympic basketball, and the team failed to qualify for this years recent world championship in Spain.Britain funds its sports from the national lottery, and it cut basketball money because it has not produced medals.I think its really stupid, Deng said. Im not knocking any other sports. Basketball has come a long way, but the way it was looked at was: did they get any medals? No.While the NBA is constantly getting more and more international, playing abroad can still lead to misunderstandings.Players have been warned that a gesture sometimes used after a made 3-pointer may offend Brazilians. It involves players making a circle around their eyes and lifting the other three fingers.We dont want to offend anybody, Bosh said. I think its a good recommendation, but its only a recommendation. So its on the players to do it. I dont like 3-point celebrations because its just one shot. If youve got to celebrate every time, its a long season.___Stephen Wade on Twitter: http://twitter.com/StephenWadeAP Cheap Quentin Poling Jersey . -- Two-time AL Cy Young Award winner Johan Santana agreed Tuesday to a minor league contract with the Baltimore Orioles as he tries to come back from the second major operation on his left shoulder.

FRANKFURT, Germany -- Miroslav Klose, the top scorer in World Cup history, has retired from Germanys national squad a month after the team won the title for the fourth time. The 36-year-old Klose scored twice in Brazil, making him the highest-scoring player in the tournaments history with 16 goals, one ahead of Ronaldo. It was Kloses fourth World Cup tournament. With a career total of 71 goals, Klose is also the highest-scoring player for Germany. He is also the second most capped Germany player with 137 games. "The title in Brazil fulfilled a childhood dream of mine," Klose said in a statement posted Monday on the German national teams website. "I am proud and happy that I could contribute to this great success for the German football. There is no better time to close the national team chapter." Klose is the second member of the World Cup-winning side to step down after captain Philipp Lahm. While Lahms retirement came as a surprise, but Kloses move was expected. The pairs retirement will be marked at a ceremony before the Sept. 3 friendly against Argentina, the rival Germany beat 1-0 in the World Cup final. Neither will play, the German federation said. Germany coach Joachim Loew callled Klose a "world star," and "one of the greatest strikers in football.dddddddddddd" Klose was always Loews preferred striker and he was the only true striker in the World Cup squad in Brazil. Klose started the tournament on the bench but returned to the starting 11 when Loew decided to abandon the "false nine" formation and use a striker again. "You can always rely on Miro Klose, he kept his word," Loew said. "The same thing happened in Brazil, I knew that Miro would be top fit when it mattered." Born in Poland, Klose moved with his family to Germany at an early age and always played for his adopted homeland. Klose made his debut as a substitute for Germany in a World Cup qualifier against Albania on March 24, 2001, and scored the winning goal in a 2-1 victory. "The success of the team was always my priority," Klose said. With 71 goals for Germany, Klose surpassed the legendary Gerd Mueller (68). Only Lothar Matthaeus played more games for Germany at 150. Klose played for Kaiserslautern, Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga before moving to Italian club Lazio in 2011, where he has another season on his contract.
