Haven't been able to locate a Youtube link for the Semi-Finals. There's a link for the other games, not the Semi-Finals. The only link I've found is on the FIBA TV site above. It APPEARS that you may have to register for FIBA TV and then watch the games for Free.

Russia vs Australia is at 11:00 AM
USA vs Spain is at 1:15 PM

I just registered and can watch the semis and final for free.

Thanks for the heads up.

Russia is extremely talented and has size. Russia has had a double digit lead for most of the game.

Maybe its just the angles..... but if the players heights on the team are correct...... Stevens seems taller than 6'6"

Russia has two very good bigs on their team, each of whom just turned 17. Both 6'4" #4 Raisa Musina and 6'5" #5 Maria Vadeeva would, imo, be top 10 ranked if they choose to attend college here. It will be interesting to see Cox play against someone her own age.

USA out to a 10-2 Run, PLaying good defense to stop Spain's Run outs. Its what the U17 team could not do.

Did anyone else catch what the announcer said about Salvadores may not be able to attend Duke!?!?

 

[Wbbfan1]

USA only leading Spain 21-19 end of 1st Qtr. Spain Shooting 50% for the game. Huge difference between the two prior meeting.

USA Controlling the boards but unable to take advantage of domination.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Is that something new?? Old?

 

[triaddukefan]

I heard the announcer...... got me a bit nervous

 

[HuskyFan1125]

I heard the announcer. got me a bit nervous

If you replay it was right around when she hit the 3

Pretty good play for the most part, though the US is getting lucky that some of these wide open 3s from Spain aren't going in.

Napheesa is doing her Napheesa thing.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Nice block by Collier and athletic play to keep it alive resulting in a layup for Dangerfield

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Is it me or does Wilson try to do too much??

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Napheesa Collier is OUTSTANDING!!!!!

Couple seasons under Geno and team and watch out!!!

 

[triaddukefan]

If you replay it was right around when she hit the 3

thanks, but no thanks..... i dont need to hear it again

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Seems like Spain makes a comeback when Dawn goes to her bench.

Wilson/Stevens/Collier/Dangerfield/Moore are the most effective 5 IMO

 

[HuskyFan1125]

Collier with 19pts and 8 rebounds as USA leads at the half

 

[Alydar]

If the US could hit shot from more than 5 feet from the hoop they'd have a 30 point lead.

The story of the 1st half is 17 offensive rebounds.
