Team USA beat European Champions Russia 89-68 Sunday. I predict that USA wins gold medals this year.
The USA Men's Basketball Team beat Russia 89-68 today.
Kobe Bryant led USA with 19 points, Carmelo Anthony had 17, and Dwyane Wade had 16.
Russia found themselves down by 20 early in the third quarter and tried to fight back, but Bryant was too much for them. He kept finding easy layups, and if he wasn't open, he would find a teammate with an open shot and throw the ball to them.
Utah Jazz small forward Andrei Kirilenko led Russia with 18 points, while point guard JR Holden added 17.
