Melo, Bron and Wade having huge games thus far. Already forced 8 or 9 turnovers. Melo has drained two 3’s, and Wade has a few steals. Bron had a sick dunk over some dudes. Bosh trucked Little Ricky Rubio, and Kobe bulldozed Pau early on.

Kobe got into early foul trouble and had to come out. Plus he was forcing shots.

blocked a shot, which went to a Spanish guy. Wade then came up from behind and stole it, and ran down court in a “flash” for the jam.

All in five seconds. He is the best player on the floor for the USA. So much hustle.

getting picky

I think our players do, too

every non-spaniard in the place if for US

this is where size may matter

Bingo…..2 for 2

Bosh stuck his hand in this guys ass

Shooting is good tonight

Melo stole that clean

LBJ to DWade for the jam

nice ball movement…he and Paul in together works great

I’m calling it over

Deer. Headlights

unless it is to yell at the refs

steal that ball out of the air with one hand? Guy is amazing.

he matches up well with the taller Spanish forwards

Perhaps the biggest difference between now and 04 is that the 04 team didn’t have PGs.

kid is skilled

He was the first out of Bron, melo and himself to get a title…with a little help from the refs of course.

no easy buckets

fast paced game. That will tend to happen in US games.

The NBA on NBC song! Only thing missing from the live feed.

I probably would have watched the tape-delayed..but i thought they wouldn’t tape delay on weekends…and I couldn’t go back to sleep.

From this wide angle shot, the gym looks alright….its not Staples, but looks decent for an overseas gym. Guessing it was built just for olympics. Don’t know how the rest of China’s gyms are….probably in much worse shape.

that was all ball that sent that spaniard to the deck

A rare scene in the NBA, all the players and coaching staff having a seat on the sidelines.

melo is on fire

by HOward

that guy took seven steps

like Pau, but with balls

Not too polished as a player, he’s no Pau, but he does look NBA ready. A few years from now, the trade will look good for Memphis.

its fun to to root for Goliath for once

Wade is ridiculous

Swat

I am excited about the way Wade is playing, and terrified about the way he is playing, too.

but I have never seen him take over a game on both ends of the floor like Wade can.

Or LBJ, for that matter.

Ok, I’ll get off his nuts now. But he is ballin

When the Bucks let go of ray allen so many years ago, they had thought young Redd would become the next ray allen. So far, hasn’t happened.
Also, the 72.5 mil for Andrew Bogut is truly outrageous.

Clips games used to be like this…all is quiet during live balls, except Clipper Darrell. Then they went on a playoff run and started to go crazy on the in-play music, even during last year’s bleak times.

but I’ll take 30
