Worst dive ever in Olympics. He had to pull out with an injury from that dive.

Great run by the USA woman's team

[ghost1986]

Well apparently I'm the only one on here who's still watching the Olympics and not the NBA. Our basketball team is not looking good. We're lucky Spain is fouling us so much. Only thing is we have quite a few in foul trouble as well. Not as bad as Spain though. There's still 3 minutes in the 2nd qtr and Marc Gasol has 4 fouls. And the Spain coach needs to calm his players down. They're getting a little too irritable over the foul calls.

EDIT: These refs are letting this game get way out of hand. Iguodalagot shoved down and then he gets called for an unsportsmanlike conduct foul. Wow

[codizzle]

Yea u nailed it with ur edit
The refs are calling a terrible game both ways but it hurts USA because strength/tough basketball is a majort advantage for us and they are taking it away big time with the way they're calling

They are easily worse than any NFL replacement ref I've seen so far

[ghost1986]

Man tell me about it. Playing Spain and the refs

[cursona pirate]

Yeah Kevin Love! Represent my TimberWolves!
Thank god Rubio isint on Spain or this game might be diffrent. I love Rubio though.

Indeed your right!

[ghost1986]

10 minutes. We need to play better D. Not just inside but outside as well. Mainly inside though. Gasol and Ibaka(sp?) are tearing it up

[codizzle]

Someone posted in the nba thread about lakers being a good defensive team now (cause of dwight coming) ..


. They mentioned Kobe being a good defender..Kobe is a terrible defender like I said.. This game helps my point

We simply don't have the size

[ghost1986]

May not have size but we have Durant. I dont know who gets MVP. Him or LeBron. But LBJ has 4 now. Not good.

[indianstick]

lol they are playing a box and 1 on durant

[ghost1986]

Well we need to shoot better. Missing open 3's. Play smart D. Dont let em get any easy shots inside.

[indianstick]

wow i didn't think lebron was gonna hit that..def just sealed it

[ghost1986]

Yeah wow. And mother of pearl. That's the first moving pick/screen whatever that I've ever seen called. I knew it was a real call, but that's the first time I've ever seen it called. Come on guys put this away

EDIT: USA USA USA!!!!

That's happened quite a few times during the Olympics

[ghost1986]

What is that techno song playing after the game?

[Hjulmann]

Congratulations to the mens b-ball team, they're truly representing! And congrats to all the american as well as international athletes competing for gold, very proud of being a part of a country ranked top of the top in the medals! Great day!

Big win for Team USA... CP3, KD, and LeBron were clutch!

[arnie_uk]
