    Melo's shot is just automatic right now. Dude isn't even following through. Just a quick release and that's it.

    Team USA plays P&R d just like the Blazers used to. Switching everything-- not enough cutting off, etc.

    Why the hell is Nate a coach on this team?

    LeBron bails out USA. Pathetic performance. Coach K is overrated.

    I hate all those neon yellow Nike shoes most athletes are wearing, but the sure are a flashy billboard for Nike. They really pop.

    He's the most complete Blazer player that Nate ever coached. Maybe the only player who actually did what Nate asked of him.

    I just turned it on at the start of extra time. 5 of 6 goals from UP players!

    This team doesn't even compare to the Dream Team.

    I kinda want USA to lose. Need to get their arrogance in check, and Manu deserve to beat USA.

    FRA-ESP, USA-AUS, and ARG-BRA

    Sick matchups in the quarters.

    I do not love the olympics, nationalism is silly and the olympics seems superfluous. London is left with a lot of bills too, that's messed up.

    It is fun to root for some of these athletes though.

    Are you suggesting Nasa' budget should be less than NBC's?!

    There are too many lame events in the olympics. They need to get rid of some of the lame events like handball and bring in baseball/softball, MMA, and skateboarding.
