    What do you mean? Does coming back to life mean actually hitting a couple wide open shots? USA is fine.

    Team USA has no spark and they are playing lazy on offense. They need to start pushing the ball and attacking the rim. Walking the ball up the court and shooting 3 pointers bails Argentina out.

    Kobe should be banned from taking 3 pointers. His ego is showing. I actually like that he got stuffed by Nocioni.

    I personally don't want to see a blowout. I want USA to be reasonably challenged to be prepared for the Spain Gold medal game.

    I think if USA is challenged, it will give Spain hope by making them look human.

    Heck, I'd be cheering for Argentina too if I paid money to attend because I want a competitive game. That being said, USA USA USA.

    I would love that to happen. I just don't want us to be upset by a gay Spanish team beacause we think we are unbeatable. The way we are randomly taking 3's here is one thing that scares me.

    Team USA is playing lazy basketball, just shooting 3s and brick everyone of them, meanwhile Arg is getting some flow in their offense, and their zone defense has been working. If Team USA continues to play like this, it is going to be a close game.

    Obviously, USA's game plan is all about how to defend Manu! After Manu is out, they don't know how to do!
