USA Men's Basketball

Anybody been paying attention to the FIBA-America tournament that's being held in Las Vegas right now? It's basically a qualifying tournament that determines your admittance to the 2008 Olympics. Team USA is 4-0 right now. They're dominating everyone right now. Their margin of victory is at 40 points I believe. Although, we play Argentina on Thursday and they're also 4-0. If I'm not mistaken, Argentina won the Olympic Gold in '04 so it should be a very good game.

They play Puerto Rico tonight at 11 pm EST on ESPN2.

Awesome awesome. Had no idea it was even time again for the USA boys to play ball, if I remember, it was pretty emberassing last time we showed up to play (terrorist scared the players, apparently)

I've seen every game. Although I'm going to have to skip the one tonight.

I saw their game against Mexico. They are pretty damn good.

Carmelo Anthony, Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Jason Kidd, and Dwight Howard. God damn we better be rollin up every team out there. Maybe could use a little more in the center position, but hey the other 4 are pretty effin impresive.

They are just pounding on Puerto Rico. I thought it was funny how Anthony just about tripped when he landed from a big dunk.

We've got Stoudamire to backup Howard and Tyson Chandler (wtf?) to back them up. I think we've got a VERY solid team.

HoH, yeah I saw that, too. It looked like he got injured. I was like.. what a fucking moron for showing off and injuring himself.

Anthony, Lebron, and Kobe = unstoppable.

Our team is incredible. Can anybody else believe how ripped Kobe god. It looks like he dropped about 20 pounds and bulked up

I think the main thing is the team has powerful depth.

I'm going to try and catch some of the one tonight, ESPN2 correct? .. Awesome, that and got to remember to watch the Jags play tomorrow, another Thursday night game on FOX I believe..

Yep. 11:00 pm EST on ESPN2. Tomorrow's game vs. Argentina doesn't start until midnight which is a total bummer because that will be their hardest challenge yet.

The beauty of DVR...

Hah, I don't have that privelege... yet. Time to call Comcast, I think lol

They've been rolling the in parts of the games that I've been able to watch.

They do that the whole game. So many great passes, knocked down 3's, monster jams; it's fun to watch.

Almost like watching the Globetrotters.

It really is, sportscenter had them on, just showing replays and it was pretty much just dunk after dunk, then Amarie hitting a 3.

Oh man last night's game was nasty. LeBron had 26 points on 11-11 shooting, in the first half. He didn't play after that, which was kinda dissapointing but they didn't need him out there anyway.

And I guess 'Melo really did injure himself on that dunk 2 nights ago. Moron.

Very impressive game, damn it was nasty only caught a bit of it but it was definately worth it, damn they look MUCH MUCH better.

Missed the game Some lush was runnin around flashin her tits all night at the bar. Couldn't pay attention to both...
