Well, lets see: the refs helped the US, the US were up by only 13 when we stopped trying, Manu couldnt play yet it wasnt a blowout, everytime anyone in the US team tried to do a flashy play they looked like fools getting blocked or making to's, etc, etc, etc...

The Olympic Spirit is about rooting for your country...that's why they put the names of the countries on the front of the jerseys. That's who the players are there representing...their country.

Scola clearly can't rebound. He only got 11 today.

USA did not look completely sharp at times because they lost focus, but they never looked in trouble. That is pretty impressive at this stage in the game.

The olympic spirit is for sending a bunch of annoying pricks who've been talking shit for the last 4 years down a peg.

Unfortunately...you're a little right.

If only Manu gave Manny enough change for a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos, this whole thread would be so different. Way to go, Manu. You could've saved yourself so much scorn for $1.49.

Yes, they were much better than Argentina, they deserved to win, but they just didnt impressed me.

Show us how to lose classlessly Argentina...just like you showed us how to win classlessly over the past 4 years.

So ref bashing is allowed now? I am sure Tim Duncan appreciates that.

No, the US didnt get any help in 04 so they just want to avoid having the same outcome handing them those nice calls. :bang

The defending Olympic champs go down... and so does Manu... ugh.

Were they supposed to? All that matters is who wins.

Seriously though, at least you are man enough to acknowledge the win. You seem to be one of the few who is a good sport. :toast

As much as I'm a fan of Manu, the U.S. team is just a more talented team.

It would take the Argentinian team a lot of good team work, red hot shooting and a disorganized U.S. team to win. That's what they did last time, unfortunately, with an injured Manu, luck wasn't on their side this time.

Hats of to the Argentinians for keep it relatively close even without Manu.

Well looks like Scola can play in the big leagues... don't we have his draft rights?

Can you stop including a hole freaking country when you respond to one or a few retards? :nope

If I would do the same and judge USA for your actitudes... well, hope you can guess...
