    uf...we beat Canada : 70 -68 after terrible 3 quarters ,4th one wasn't bad , but the last second shot really could have made Canada win.
    so why no one talks here?no basketball fans?

    I'll bite. This is the USA's "C-team," arguably. Non-NBA basketball at this time of year will always take a back seat to pro football starting up and the MLB pennant races.

    Still, I expect the USA to make it to the championship game and win in a tightly fought contest with Spain.

    Yeah we suck. Still winless as we just lost to France, dropping to 0-3. Seriously WTF Canada?

    China, my other team (because I am both) isn't faring much better at 1-2. I guess this is just another tune-up tourney for USA.

    That's just pathetic. Losing to New f*ckin' Zealand, and now Canada's officially eliminated. No offense Kiwis and total credit for playing a better game but I've been to NZ, and basketball means next to nothing there. Bottom line: Canada's basketball program should not be this shitty.

    A lot of this stems from when Canada's national team canned coach Jay Triano after years of sub-par performances. That only served to piss off two-time NBA MVP Steve Nash, who'll never play for Canada again. So now we have Leo Rautins running the show, whose claim to fame is his brief time as a sucky NBA player and an even worse douchebag tv commentator. Smfh.

    USA get a little pay back on the anniversary of the greatest rip off in international basketball history.

    The men's Basketball final of the 1972 Olympics to this day the members of that team have refused to accept the silver medals.
