They just beat Tunisia by 83 points in a 156 - 73 demolishing. They were absolutely on point and couldn't miss a shot. I read a note where Hollinger said that if we only counted the US's points by way of 3 pointer, they would have beated Tunisia by 11. Yikes. Hopefully this shooting carries over to the Medal round play against the likes of Spain, Argentina, etc.
Side Notes:
Melo set the American Male Basketball scoring record with 37 points. He hit 10 3-pointers.
Kobe and Lebron didn't play a single minute in the second half.
Anthony Davis was set to go in, in the first half but realized he didn't have his jersey on, so he went back to the bench.
The US went to a zone in the 4th quarter and walked the ball up the court, no longer fast breaking. Most possessions they held the ball until there was only a handful of seconds left on the clock.
