If they aren't going to defend the 3, then there is no way they win this game. That simple.

Serbia is trying to go inside -- not sure I agree with that strategy considering how well they are shooting the 3.

Booker is not confident shooting the ball from outside.

Devin takes and makes the three! It's now a 5 point game.

Couple of big plays by Booker a tipaway on defense and then the huge 3 off the inbounds to make a 6 point play.

Team USA is not blocking out on offensive rebounds.

Embiid has really stepped up his game in the 4th quarter.

I wanted Lebron to drive it on the last possession.

I think Wade nailed it too, those open shots are a lot harder to make late in a tight game with that much riding on it. They missed 3-4 wide open looks.

Really happy for Embiid and Curry both were having a tough Olympics and both were huge.

LeBron is just ageless.
