USA v China
Starts in 5 minutes. Anybody gonna watch? Anybody setting up a chat room?
|
I'm watching but I have to leave for a social engagement just after 11, so I'll miss some of it.
Was 29 - 29 just a minute ago. |
It's turned into a one sided dunk-a-thon.
|
Hahaha!
3.7 sec left in the first half. USA inbounds the ball looking for the last shot. Ball gets to Kobe w/ 1.3 secs left. TWEEEET! Travel violation. No Dorothy, we're not in Kansas anymore! ;)
|
USA by 30+
Shaky start but easy overall. |

I was gonna say that I bet kobe didn't travel as soon as I read grunewar's post but read further and saw where someone replayed it and he didn't travel. Travels are something you don't want to miss by blowing the whistle and being wrong. I know in my early days and even some now I do that and I get so mad with myself.

There was also one play in which the ball was heading OOB in the air at the end line and was last touched by a USA player but before it hit anything OOB, a Chinese player who was standing OOB touched it. The official gave the ball to China for the throw-in. Is this some different FEEBLE rule? Just wondering.
|
Internationally, what is the rule and hand/arm signal for "lane violation" on free throws? There were several instances where players were well into the paint wrestling for position before the player was even ready to shoot. Just curious. Anyone else see it?

The game re-exposed the US team's outside game weakness. Other teams will adjust, slow it down and pack it in. If team USA does not work the ball better and hit some threes, there will be trouble.
