Is anyone going to give the U.S. men's basketball team a "competitive" game?
Well, there are two more opportunities for someone to do so but I wouldn't count on it happening after it cruised past Australia.
The lads play too hard, with too much purpose, and have too much talent -- individually and collectively -- for any significant chance of a major slip-up taking place Friday, in a semifinal against Argentina or Greece, and Sunday, in the gold medal game against Spain or Lithuania.
Not to get ahead of ourselves here but . . . come Sunday night we should try to figure out where this U.S. team belongs on the all-time pecking list of Olympic gold medal-winning clubs.
