Kobe is shooting waay too many 3s in international play. I know he's older now but if you don't want to drive, use the mid-range or pass to Bron and Wade. I don't like this half-assed play

Do you guys feel like we won't always get all these dunk opportunities, and so far we haven't proven that we can hit open jumpers what so ever? We won't be able to just drive and dunk it down on every opponent.

They don't run plays. It's all on if the guards feel like setting guys up..

LeBron > Kobe

Not even an issue anymore

Yah LeBron is better in run-n-gun games like these. Even D-Wade is better cos that's the majority of their game. Kobe will be the key when they play teams that don't turn it over for easy dunks and actually clog the lane..

He probably feels like the line is so close the shots are begging him to take them. Besides, that's how Coach K teams have played in recent years: Live and die by the 3. Since the line is closer to college level he might actually be trying to use that strategy here.

USA may have the best collection of players but they don't have the best team.

They'll console themselves with the gold and hope to meet your approval in four years.

At half... stop taking threes!

Kobe is 4-for-10 but 1-for-5 behind the arc.

LeBron is 5-for-8/0-for-2.

Wade is 5-for-5.

Howard is 4-for-4.

Bosh is 3-for-3.

Carmelo and Mike Redd with only 2 rebounds between them hahaha.


edit: Carmelo :lol :lol :lol

I thought she did a great job. English is probably not her first language..

True, but I wouldn't be surprised if she was either born in the USA or grew up here. Chinese speakers usually don't get pronunciation and speech flow that good if they learn English later in life.

China's three-point shooting has gone cold :(

Edit: OooooH dwight rejeted

It's because now they're being forced almost to play up close I think, they depended too much on those shots to begin with.

Some of these are just easy points for the Usa, if china wants to make an impact they have to slow the game down.

wow lebron again is just all over the place.
