Hmm, wonder if I'll stay up for that one. I went to bed as the sun was coming up after the game against Turkey. Funny feeling.

I think the US will have another slow start but pick it up after the half for another blowout win :jam2:

First challenge the US will face. Should be a good game.

I concur, Turkey will not be in the Olympics while Lithuania will be.

Not to mention Lithuania is just a much better team overall but especially size wise.

GO TEAM USA :patriot:

They are a great team that has underachived the last few years. USA should be carefull but it should be a solid double digit win.

Team USA is killing my sleep. :bang:

I can't help but stay up to watch the games.

Does anyone know if most of the actual Olympic game will be at this time too?

I was watching ESPN and just flipping through the guide only to find the Team USA game today. I really hope those Olympic games come at a decent hour.

9.

I say USA wins by 19 and really struggles to break away until the 4th quarter.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:00 am

No! Rick Kamla. :man5:

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:02 am

I am so not typing a single Lithuanian name today. Same starting 5 for Team USA.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:04 am

Linas Kleiza is coming off the bench. Kobe with the J to open the game.

Helljumper · by **Helljumper** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:04 am

I'm logging off now. Want to make sure I pay full attention to the game, not CL.

Dwight :jam2:

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:05 am

Dwight Howard with a monster jam. Kidd with the steal, Howard with and 1 layup.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:06 am

Monster dunk by #15 from LTU.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:06 am

Howard with a fingerroll.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:07 am

James with a "sexy jam" Rick Kamla says.

Battle Tested20 · by **Battle Tested20** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:08 am

I think team usa heard us Americans think they might have a little trouble

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:10 am

James in the open court all be himself, again. LTU are really bad ballhandlers. James with asick pass to Howard.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:11 am

Melo with the turnover, Kidd with the strip. LTU's ball.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:11 am

Kidd scores! 2 points for Kidd.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:12 am

Kleiza checking into the game. Wonder if Melo will guard him.

LDR · by **LDR** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 5:13 am

LTU in a zone. Sick move from kobe. Howard to Kidd back to Howard. And 1.
