[b-ball forever]

Wassup with Victor Khryapa? He injured or what?

This shud be a fun game, Russia is the 2nd most athletic European team out there, and they usually play very good defense...

Bet USA wins by 20ish pts, but won't be surprised if the Russians keep it close

Called it!

[Texas Longhorns]

A black guy on the Russian team..

Good day for Jazz players... AK was pretty good all around, always good when he swats Melo. Deron had 9 assists, 5 points, 3 boards, 2 steals, no TO's in 20 minutes and... while playing some pretty nice D. And Boozer.... well he caught a pretty sweet pass from Deron.

A black guy on the Russian team..

"What do you mean YOU people?"

"WHAT do you mean YOU people?

[kno]

Kome surfacing again. That guy should not be on the National Team.

You really are something else.

When Russia was catching up (USA was winning by less than 10pts I believe), Kobe goes off in the 3rd and scores 11 consecutive points.

After this, the defense obviously geared towards Bryant's offense, which allowed Redd to hit those two threes that extended the lead.

But youre right, all this guy is doing is being a disservice to the team. Shame on him.

[TheOUTLAW]

I thought Redds 3's were the biggest points of this game. But for some reason the US team just doesn't seem to be able to get a handle on this ball.

[carrottop12]

Alright, here comes Deron Williams and a 16-2 run I believe.

[Virtuoso]

You dudes are 12 hours late to this party

[Texas Longhorns]

lol...

Some of them are watching again, let them enjoy it.

Watching Team USA is fun even if it's a grind out game like it was against Russia.
