Another bad outlet runs Maya into a stationary player...incomprehensibly traveling is called on Maya...good defense and the half ends with Whalen to Moore to DT for a last millisecond heave that just misses from the wing...
 
Alba Torrens having less of an impact then many have thought. Has an efficiency rating of -19% with no points. Angel may not see many minutes if she continues her individual play. Not playing for the Dream. DT great first half with 7 Assists
 
Sancho Lyttle has three fouls and the front line defense consists of Nichols now...if Geno wants a blowout he can feed Tina and Brittney down low and there won't be any way for Spain to defend...

Or let Maya continue to shoot. She is on fire today! Just a beautiful stroke!!!
 
Wow - nice first half - Maya with 16 on 6-10 with 4-6 from three. Of course her 60% shooting is bring down the USA numbers since they shot 61% for the half lead by Tina at 4-4. DT doing a great job defensively on Torrens - plus the rest of the team on the switches - she ends the first half 0-4 with absolutely no other numbers except zeros on her line.
 
Griner almost gets into it with Nicholls - major eyeball-to-eyeball staredown.

Love it. Nichols undercut her while she was running down the court. Nichols is frustrated because she can't score on BG.

US taking the foot off the pedal at both ends now with under a minute in the 3rd...Torrens grabs Whalen...no call and Torrens scores at the other end...Seimone goes to the hole and gets fouled...sinks both
 
Nichols gets isolated on nmeka with a couple of seconds left in the quarter but still cannot score...frustration personified...
 
.-.
Lyttle and Nichols have played their tails off...the Spanish guards not hitting early and now look winded...
 
.-.
The thin Spanish team dead, but Nichols scores and Angel outruns down the court to answer...DT pops a very fluid long 2..
 
Bird nice feed to Nmeka but good defense and Palau gets a nice feed at the other end...now Palau another nice finish 75-54...
 
US not pushing it, so some subs coming in...Griner and Moore...Geno not going deep...
 
Spain tries an alley oop to Nichols with Griner on her...Nichols draws about 6 inches of air and laughs as the ball goes out of bounds...have to like her...
