    I have my doubts that there are basketballs in Tunisia. The current spread is US by 55, and I'm not sure I would bet against it.

    I would bet against it heavily. No way USA wins by 54 1/2 spread they have.

    Lol at Kobe's reaction to that deep 3 pointer that magically went in from Tunisia

    Refs should look at those travels committed by the US. I mean, yes we want to see the US making highlight-reel plays, but that Chris Paul travel was ridiculous.

    I think Coach K gave them some talking at half-time over the sloppy first half. They look much more energized and focused.

    Is it just me, or does half court design look like something a Nazi soldier made?

    Love hurt. Don't know if it was a knee to knee or if he twisted it.

    Ha, do you know who was commentating on France vs Argentina for them?

    John Amaechi! His colleague introduced him as a NBA star

    Now that's an entertaining game. Kind of feel sorry for Tunisia though, they started surprisingly well and now they let the US score 39 in the 3rd quarter which is a lot in international basketball.

    Wow, looks like they will win by 54. How do they predict these so well?

    Anthony Davis is legit. I thought this guy was overrated, but from what I've seen he's now my favorite rookie (other than our Rockets rookies)! :grin:
