USA Crushes Australia At The Olympics
In Beijing, China on August 20th, the USA team demolished Australia to advance to the next round by winning by 31 points, in a score of 116-85. Kobe Bryant led the team with 25 points on 14 out of 23 field goals made. Lebron James was the runner up with 16 points on 8 out of 15 shooting. The USA men scored 19 unanswered points that started late in the second quarter and continued the run into the beginning of the third, which blew the game wide open. The team ended up shooting a fantastic 56% overall for the game.
Argentina, the reigning Olympic champions will face the USA team on Friday, August 22nd. The semifinals match will force the USA team to be at the top of there game. I expect this game will go down to the wire, with the ball in Kobe’s hands!
