Anyone else watching this? I can't wait to see how this team does against Argentina and Puerto Rico and not these wimpy teams.

  Team USA is going to crush Puerto Rico. I don't know what's going on with our team in the tournament; they made it to the 2nd round only because Argentina beat Panama in OT. It looks like Team USA should expect Barcelona-like results from here on now. Do you know what channel is carrying the tourney?

I've seen it on the various ESPN networks (ESPNU and ESPN2 for night games). I think i also saw a game on Fox Sports Network.

The team seems to be playing very well and motivated under Coach K and Boeheim.

Kobe's d has been superb, and Carmelo has been incredible.

Lebron and Dwight Howard have been pretty unstoppable too.

I don't follow that logic...

If Panama beat Argentina, US would still go to the 2nd round, as they are undefeated.

Only 2 unbeatens.  Argentina and US.

If Arg loses, then US would have been the only unbeaten.  They have 8 pts, where if you lose one game, the most pts you can have is 7... so there is no way that they would not have made it to the 2nd round.

Am I missing something?

  Our team = Puerto Rico, in my case!  ;D  Sorry, 18+ years of celebrating victories, and crying over defeats is too strong to let go. International Basketball is the equivalent of soccer to us (PR).
