Geno and Aussie coach share the least warm handshake ever. 86-73 good guys win!

Dee makes 2...has she ever missed an Olympic free throw?

Yup = a few minutes ago.

Cambage shut out in the 2nd half...on to Brittany!

Kudos to Sue, Diana, & Tina -- they were the stars today.

No wonder she's irritated!

U-S-A!

good job US

 

[OneTrickPony]

She's been terrific for much of the Olympics, but was pretty lousy this game.

Needs to get in the weight room with Maya and Catch...

Final 86-73

I'd add a vote for Ashja - she was great in slowing Cambage down in the second half.

On to USA-Japan soccer!

Top 4 USA scorers... all UCONN grads

Geno's 2nd half adjustment on Cambage...Tina took it personally...nice!

Russia v France at 4pm ET on MSNBC

Gave a gratuitous UConn plug as well.

Lisa Leslie credits Tina Charles with the turnaround on Cambage...says Candace Parker just too light...

 

[pap49cba]

Wow. That was a war. Had to leave the room several times...

 

[OneTrickPony]

Lisa thinks USA has just faced their biggest challenge left in the tourney...thinks Russia would be tougher than France although Dumerc shooting lights out from 3

Asjha gave some good minutes on the defensive end against LJ and showed why she was chosen for the team. She was needed for some key moments in a big game and her experience allowed her to step up and deliver. She affirmed Scotter's reasoning for why she was chosen. Way to go Asjha!

Agreed- she had one of the better +/- stats on the team, I would guess.

Great team defense by Team USA in 2nd half. Ashja & Tina were outstanding with their defense on Cambage & Jackson.

I for one would like to see France beat Russia. Don't want to see Hammond try to beat USA for the gold.

I actually believe that the kudos should go to the defense. I only watched the second half, and it was the defensive efforts of everyone, especially Tina in the post, and the perimeter defenders who won this game. Well done USA!!!
