Dee, Sue, Maya, Tina and Brittney starting
 
Charles gets her shot blocked...

Working on an inside outside inside outside thing, Maya misses the shot.....

and she misses a second three
 
Maya heads to the basket and gets the ball ripped from her
 
on Serbia miss Diana stops and pops, misses and Tina cleans up.

Griner scores (I missed it)
and USA scores again in the paint (Charles)

USA up 6
 
Serbia scores...and USA gets two more buckets in the paint.

Serbia again scores, and Tina loses the ball taking it up the court....Tina?
 
Griner with a pretty decisive block
 
Again, the outside shots of USA are not falling....that will change...

Wild catch and score by Serbia...pretty neat, she threw up over her head backwards....

Score is USA 8 - 6
 
Diana is fouled shooting two, makes only 1
 
Maya is being a pest on defense.....
Griner on the 3 point line to Moore, shoots and misses,
Serbia loses the ball on the other side, Moore to Bird on the fastbreak who is fouled. Shooting 2
 
and makes both 11 - 6 USA

Serbia does a great inside outside for 3

Dee shoots and misses a 3, Moore cleans up with a circus shot off the glass.
 
Wow - we see a little ally-oop action from Serbia who makes the bucket, and shoots for the extra point...score is now 13 -12.....3:21 to go

C'mon USA
 
we get some subs... Augustus is in and Whalen

Augustus gets a steal, but misses the shot
 
another 3 for Serbia...ok US, let's go
Score is 13 - 17

Charles answers with a strong move to the basket
 
griner with a leaping rebound, out to Seimone, and then Brittney takes out a Serbia player....no foul
 
Serbia scores again
Griner out, Nneka is in

15 - 19 Serbia
 
More subs
Dupree is in and Seimone scores strong in the paint.

US fouls on the other end, Serbia shoots and makes 2
 
We're having a hard time against pick and roll - poor communication on defense. And we neeeeeed to stop fouling!
 
I think starting Griner and Charles isn't working. We keep getting beat down the floor by these teams, and they have bigs that can shoot from the outside. Nneka would be better to start, or Dupree.
 
The basketball has been rather sub-par for Team USA. And the announcers are far worse than sub-par. The Brit is just annoying, and his partner can't even pronounce our players' names. I am a little surprised that NBA TV doesn't just take the raw video and do the play-by-play from the NY studio, as is often done with soccer.
 
Defend until the buzzer. It's not complicated.
 
Missed the first half, who is scoring well for the US?
 
Maya, Tina. Dupree has looked solid. Davovic (spelling?) had the half of her life for Serbia with 20. Geno with a technical.
