    He got into foul trouble in 1st half. Didnt play after 5 min mark of 2nd Q. To begin 2nd half Coach K went with the bench unit...so it was Deron, Iggy, Westbrook, Love and Melo. THey extended the 13 point halftime lead to 33 with 4 min left in 3rd Q. Game was over by then so Kobe didnt need to re-enter

    Does anybody else hate the Olympic buzzer/horn? It's so high pitched and grating to my ears. Sounds awful.

    I prefer the deeper bass buzzer in the NBA.

    It's not even the buzzer but I hate how the people who are in charge of the clock and the buzzer can't ever seem to know when to sound the buzzer and when not too.

    Can't believe no one has posted about the Russia vs. Brazil game, hand't seen a game winner like that in a while.

    I wanted to post something about it but didn't know where exactly to post it. But that shot was amazing and it also shows how terrible these refs are.

    in a wrong thread though.
    but yes, indeed. nail biter for both because brazil's previous shot could also be some game winner.
