Serbia and Montenegro [sic] 104, Lebanon 57.
That is from the ongoing FIBA World Championship series. The USA just whupped China and the US team has been running at about 63-70 percent in the betting markets, despite winning only a bronze medal in the Olympics. This time they are taking international rules seriously, playing defense, and investing in role players, or so we are told. Spain, Argentina, and Greece are the major rivals. At least we edged out Puerto Rico, 111-100, which in per capita terms has to count as a loss.
Why is it that Puerto Rico campaigns as a separate country?
I’m waking up bright and early to watch the games at 630 AM the whole week. I will indeed verify if the US has decided to actually play defense, use role players, etc…
Basketball and tennis seem to get some serious time on this blog…why no football or baseball?
Hey, It’s two against one
“investing in role players”
Magic missile! Magic Missile!

I put on my wizard robe and hat.
