1. Ahhh, but you're neglecting the "electoral points" ...

...and the "Supreme Basketball Court".

3. Where are you getting the data from?

I tried ESPN but didn't see any "live" updates.

7. Thanks - but they aren't updating that page much

The final results are on the ESPN home page now, but the result page still has the 3rd quarter 7:50 score - as of the time of this post.

6. Come on, where are all you haters today?

Just tuned in. The fellas sure are passing up a lot of open jump shots. But they sure aren't making the second pass. They look tentative.

Pundits disagree but I really think they should keep taking jump shots.

8. Yes they should

but this is not a good shooting team. When Duncan was out, the entire complexion of the game changed. This team has to rebound and drive the lane in order to win. And keep feeding the ball to Duncan. I will say, however, that International rules sure don't seem to allow any contact. Duncan fouled out on a play that is routine in American basketball, all the way down to high school. Well, maybe this struggle will help them. Go USA! I know I know, that is allegedly not the right thing to say among some of you in here.
