Stewart can't buy a shot right now, but she's still active and contributing in other ways. That's what's you want to see in a young player.

I want to dislike Mabrey but she's so darn adorable. I suppose I have four years to work on it.

Tuck likes contact. Between her and KML, they are going to wear some teams out. and-1 for Bre!

The Brazilian backcourt looked dead on their feet on that pass out of bounds...

It would help if Team USA played some defense on Brazil's outside shooters. No excuse for the wide open 3's.

Tuck started attacking the basket later in the 2nd qtr, but couldn't finish with the same touch she has shown in previous games. Obviously this is a much better team than any they've faced and it's not just a matter of turn and shoot.

Morgan needs to keep going in there and either drawing contact or putting up a soft[er] shot.

Yep- one the reasons why I think Iverson when I watch her more than I do a previous women's player.

I hope she bulks up a little...she could be something special if she doesn't get knocked around...

I don't think Brazil is that much better than other teams here, just think USA forgot when the game began - I expect a big second half.

People said the same thing about AI. :)

But yeah, if she can gain some muscle without losing her speed or flexibility, I'm all for it.

Brazil scored 18 point while holding the USA to 7.

Since then, the USA has 23, and Brazil only 3.

You can't get much more of a swing.

Take a look at the sprinters sometime...they can carry a lot of muscle...

I don't know what the announcers are saying, but I heard, "Ko-nect-ee-cut" a few times.

I like the mucho traffico when Bre tries to pass through 3 people in the paint to Morgan...
