So I suppose China got worn out from running the whole game.
All summer, Kobe's been deemed the defensive stopper, but what about Lebron's best Dikembe Mutombo impersonation with 3 demoralizing blocks...
Also impressive?...the asian version of Tony Parker, Liu Wei, why doesn't he put his name in the draft? I mean if Wang ZhiZhi lasted two years in the NBA, Liu Wei is sure to last at least three.
As a team, I don't know how confident I am in Team USA...they had flashes of very impressive basketball, maybeeee 5 minutes worth? They definitely have their spurts, but their strength of running and getting in the open court all stems from ball pressure, deflections, and steals. If a team decides to take care of the ball and not turn it over, Team USA's halfcourt offense looks like it could be rivaled by the Memphis Grizzlies...they all look confused. Luckily, Argentina lost to Lithuania who last week got killed by the US, so maybe they'll be in good shape anyway.
With the score now 87-54 with 5 minutes to go in the the 4th, I realize I should have taken the Team USA by 32 bet. I must say, it's very admirable to watch Yao Ming on the bench cheering on his team with intensity even though hold an insurmountable deficit.
