Rudy in for Sergio, questionable fouls called on Spain, LeBron shifts from passer to the main scorer for the US. It's all LeBron all the time as far as the US is concerned.
Sergio had them back to a tie. Check his +/-. Now it's 59-54 US. Commentators saying the refs think they're the stars. Too many fouls called on both teams. Pao missing shots, Marc will be on bench a long time. US players look small compared to Spanish, who are taller at all positions and have baggier uniforms.
Halftime 59-58 US. Spain is living at the line. Rudy especially, and others, are disrupting the US, who are frustrated at refs.
And yet the whole pregame 10 minutes was about Kobe, Kobe, Kobe. Even though the game started at 7 am Laker time and most viewers were in the East.
