THE US Dream Team was unstoppable, as they dominated the game against China, 101-70.
China and the US were tied at 29 during the second quarter. But the US Team, led by Dwyane Wade, was just too fast for the Chinese team, which was missing baskets during the third and fourth quarters. Almost all US players were in double figures.
The US team’s fast transition, numerous steals, and defense proved a one-two-three punch against the host country China. Lebron James was just too awesome, as he exploded in the game, blocking and shooting over China’s tough players. Kobe Bryant also contributed points, but his steals led to crucial fastbreaks in the game.
US and China belong to Group B, which includes Spain, Greece, Germany and Angola.
