USA Women's U18 3X3 Team Win in Jakarta

[meyers7]

Was just there this past spring and really enjoyed it - a very quick visit while a friend had some business meetings. Friendly and beautiful, very mixed ethnically, and a very relaxed approach to religion. It has a huge population spread across the islands with some islands dominated by different religions. Climate wise it was much cooler and less sticky than Thailand - more oceanic climate - even though it is basically on the equator. Business wise it is booming as is almost all of SE Asia. I am sure that any one of the assistants/associate would have a great time.

I hope so. Don't think I would though.

USA beats Thailand 21 - 14 and play France sometime tomorrow. France is 6-0 and will be a tough match up.

That's good news. I was concerned that the score might be 21-21, you know, a Thai.

Perhaps it's changed since I was there many years ago. Back then it was a cesspool; far and away the worst place I had to travel to in the 'Far East' and the people were not friendly.

USA Beat France 17-15 to reach the semi-finals. France up to this point was unbeaten. USA will play Spain who beat Czech Rep. 16-9. Winner of Spain vs USA Goes to the Gold Medal Game.

USA Beats Spain 15-10 and are in the Gold Medal Game. USA used superior size and athleticism to beat Spain. They will play Estonia who beat Italy 14-13. Estonia has size but not much Athleticism. USA should win.

Gold Medal Game will be streamed approx 9 AM.

Must have started the game Earlier. Schedule shows game starts at 8 PM. As I post this, its only 7:44 PM in Jakarta. I missed the game as well and I was waiting for the game to start. Wish I hadn't stopped the streaming as I watched the earlier games this morning. I didn't think Estonia could beat this USA team. They were tall, but not athletic. From what you watched, was Team USA hitting their outside shots?

USA Basketball had a tweet that said game starts at 9am Eastern.

Only reason I caught the last minute or so was a tweet I read from Mike Flynn saying the game had started.

Didn't see enough to comment on the outside shooting. The little bit I saw looked really sloppy on both sides but the U.S. was getting to the hoop on drives.

The timing is disappointing, I was just about to log in, when i saw that it was over. Congrats to the USA team, it wasn't a walk-over, and took some scrapping to win.

Great choice in players and they represented the USA proudly.

Hopefully they hit a few outside shots.
