USA avoids upset; keeps on rolling


USA avoids upset; keeps on rolling

King James and the rest of the USA Basketball team were almost upset by Lithuania, but, LeBron’s 16 in the second half kept them 4-0 in the Olympics. 5 points is the smallest margin of victory in the Olympics so far for the men. Carmelo Anthony had a big 20 as well, scoring 16 in the first half. F Kevin Durant added 16. The US shot 19 for 31 for free throws. Not good. Linas Kleiza of the Toronto Raptors and team Lithuania had 25 points, leading his country’s team.  The US’ next challenge is Argentina, who they beat in an exhibition game a couple weeks ago.
