It just went final. Team USA repeats as gold medalists in a close, hard-fought game against Spain winning 107-100. Three of the basketball's best players (you can certainly argue they're the top 3) all came to play today. Durant led all scorers with 30 and LeBron had 19 with Kobe chipping in 17. Great game and congrats to Team USA!
Team USA dominated Australia tonight; winning their 2012 Olympic quarterfinal match, score 119-86. But that’s actually not what people are talking about because its Team USA, and we pretty much know they will win Olympic gold. Tonight was all about LeBron James! Did he score 20 points like Kobe Bryant? No. Did he even score 14 points like Kevin Durant? Absolutely not, but he did make USA basketball history by being the first player to ever have a triple double. King James stats were 11 points, 12 assists, and 14 rebounds.
Also look out for LeBron and the rest of the Miami Heat to repeat this season in the NBA championship. GO HEAT!
