 Biography
The United States dominated Group B in pool play, defeating China, Angola, Greece, world champion Spain, and Germany by an average of 32.2 points. After finishing first in their group, Team USA earned the right to play the fourth-place finishers in Group A, Australia. The United States soundly defeated Australia 116-85 in the quarterfinal matchup led by Kobe Bryant's 25 points. Next up for the Americans in the semifinals was the Manu Ginóbili-led and 2004 Olympic gold medalist Argentina, the team that had beaten them in the semifinals four years prior. However Ginóbili was hobbled by an ankle injury and only played sparing minutes in the first half. Behind Carmelo Anthony's 21 points, Team USA defeated Argentina 101–81 to reach the gold medal game. On August 24, 2008, the United States defeated Spain 118–107 to capture the Olympic gold medal. Although the United States had defeated Spain by 37 points in qualifying play, Spain kept this game much closer. ~ Wikipedia.
