Say what you want about women's basketball, but USA's women have been a lot more watchable than the men's team these Olympics.

They are basically the dream team. They really play great and above the competition

I'm rooting for Serbia
I don't care who plays, I will always favor ball movement / constant motion / well-worked team basketball over individual talent randomly thrown together. It's just nicer to watch and I hope it gets rewarded.

"There are to ways for us to play this game. To play match or to play for the win"; "Let the players choose how we gonna do it." That was Djordjevic statement.
In my mind he wants to prepare his team not to feel fear from USA team and he wants to say that there is no matter for him for how many points we gonna lose if we gonna lose. He showed that in last meeting between these teams in some finals. USA blew out Serbia but he did not wanted to change his man to man defense back than although we saw on that tournament that other teams successfully used zone in defense against team USA to prevent humiliating defeats. He is kind'a born winner type of a guy who will not be happy after USA takes gold.

Feel sorry for people who couldn't catch the bronze medal game. Blow-for-blow heavy offense type game.
