USA BASKETBALL!!!

It was a pretty entertaining game, China came out en fuego; Yao kicked
it off with a trey & the Chinese national team proceeded to rain
threes on U.S. team like current Boston summer! The crowd was quite
impartial, cheering for both squads, but definitely raising the volume
anytime the home teams players did anything of even modest skill (in
the 3rd period Yao came up limping on his right ankle, to which there
was a huge gasp both in China & @ Reebok no doubt, but the big guy
shook it off hopefully he makes it through the Olys unscathed)...Team
USA (or team nike as it comes across in the commercials, I'm sure it
isn't a coincidence adidas sporting D.Howard aka Mr. I win dunk
contests by throwing the rock at the rim is absent) looked a little
sloppy at the start, & missed a truckload of wide open shots but they
had the Chinese on iceskates in the on the break & open court. I
really didn't think the game was ever in jeopardy, but they'll need to
shoot better versus the better defensive teams.
