Agreed with the bold part.

I think they would have done exponentially better. I did not think the guys in the gold medal game were very strong.

Even those two games, the officiating was.....rough, particularly the women's game. I think just about any 1st round NCAA game is better officiated than what I saw in the Olympics. It is too bad they don't make use of more officials from the USA.
Yep. My thoughts exactly.
