    LOL at Harden making sure his balls are still intact afterwards.

    Jeremy Lin is better than Melo.

    Harden's foot got swept to the side by the dribbler....nothing to see here....seems to always be the case with those highlights.

    This team is just trying to break records...it'll only help their argument that they're better than the Dream team..

    Can't believe what I just saw. Yes, it was Nigeria, but damn - 156 points is amazing. Just amazing. And an Olympic record, by the way. That's just crazy.

    This was just too much. There's some really creative tweets about Nigeria on twitter.

    I have never seen a shooting performance like this.
    Its ridiculous how effortlessly they can shoot these threes.
    Almost wish Nigeria sucked worse so we could get the greatest margin of points record too. :grin:

    Free stroking on Nigeria, yeah that will help their argument against the dream team. Dream Team wasn't exhalting their win over Angola back in 92.

    Bad team or not, this was the greatest shooting performance of all time.
    It doesn't prove that they are better than the Dream Team overall but I'd have to say that they are better shooters.
