kombate pa ang US vs AUS da, dili sad mapabiya ug dako ang AUS 8 pts ra labaw w/ 4:37 sa 2nd qtr.

loss lang kay duha ra ilang pilde - one against Brazil and the other against Russia..

Ok, I think your point was since they were defeated by Russia, instead of no.2, they had chosen no.3 spot to avoid the possibility of meeting the US team in the Semis.

And, why are you comparing France to US team? The issue here is the tanking of Brazil game in the prelim round and possible meet up with US team in the Semis.

Oh now finally you're in the ballpark.. Congrats!

Why the comparison? Coz you earlier said this:

That's why I said that it's a big blow to Tony P's pride coz as you've "said" they tanked their game against Brazil to avoid the US team in the Semis, and thinking they could get by France? Oh yeah? Will see.

Spain believed they had a better chance of getting by France than by United States.. Hence, USA > France.. Keep complicating the argument, bro! I got all day..

I did not complicate any argument. I just thought it on a different way.

Of course, I had to say "thinking they could get by France", who else would be their opponent in the Q-finals but France!

AUS 70 | USA 84 End of 3rd Quarter

Australian team just wouldn't go away.. They had a 9-3 run to start the 3rd prompting Coach K to call an early timeout.. Talking about better than 92 Dream Team that never called a single timeout in the tourney..

^ US made good use of their timeouts vs Lithuania

daug na? pls post final score.

Congrats to Australia for a reputable showing this Olympics.. Their program will only get better with all the young talents they got..



AUS 86 | USA 119 Final Score

LeBron had a quiet triple-double, Kevin Love easily took care of the boards, Kobe exploded in the 4th idk how many successive three-pointers he made in one stretch but pretty sure this is by far his best performance in the tournament.. Argentina bring it on!!
