Brazil is overrated

USA by +20
Shaq on Duncan:SA won because of TD, a guy I could never break.I could talk trash to Ewing, get in D-Rob's face, get a rise out of Mourning,but when I went at Tim he’d look at me like he was bored and say:“Hey,Shaq, watch this shot right off the glass.”

I'm really looking forward to this game. Excited to see how easy we can score when Brazil has Varejao and Splitter back there.

Splitter is a flopper evidently

I still don't get why the US can't defend the pick and roll

Kinda sad that Splitter can't back Odom down...huge height difference. I wanna see some of Splitter's post moves.

USA is off to a bad start defensively.

KD scores too easy, if he can just gain about 10 pounds of muscle...
