Yet another great showing by team USA this morning in a route over Australia, 116-85. I really think this team is going all the way and win the gold medal.

Not bad although they didn't cover the point spread.... THANKFULLY.....

It would be a true redemption win to go through Argentina and Greece to win it all. Looks like it may happen that way if Greece and the U.S. both win.

USA 30 - Argentina 11 after the first quarter.

Nice work. Ginobili got hurt and they kind of let up a little in the second period, but they managed to get the win. Carmelo might be the US player best suited for FIBA play. He had a nice game with 13-13 from the foul line and 21 points. He just needs to control his head and shot selection a little better.

Bring on España. Should be a beatdown, just like pool play. I'm guessing they will go zone and try to post it inside like Argentina had success doing.
