Kobe and @jharden13 setting up for the 100M final instagr.am/p/N9gf0Qs94Z/ — Kevin Love (@kevinlove) August 5, 2012 There were lots of candidates for Tweet of the Day today as athletes flocked to the main Olympic Stadium to watch Usain Bolt win the 100 meters — again. The race was not shown live on television in America. Absolutely, unfathomably astounding. Watching the Olympics on NBC is an exercise in forehead-banging. Why can’t they just show the race live for the hard-core sports fans, then show it
Olympics: Top 5 Olympic Questions With Pool Play Ending
So we’re all getting a reminder of how things are really day-to-day in the Olympics, eh? A couple days ago, Carmelo Anthony had the new U.S. Olympics scoring record (37) and Team USA was considered unbeatable after they out Dream Teamed the original Dream Team and beat Nigeria by 83. Then we get through Day 4 of the competition, and the world has turned upside down. The single highest-scoring game now belongs to Patty Mills of Australia, who dropped 39 on Great
Olympics: Team USA Tested By Lithuania, Russia Lurking
Team USA has been a spectacle in the Olympics’ first week, the conversation surrounding them filled with more oohs and aahs than X’s and O’s. We’ve dissected the records they’ve set more than the teams that they’ve beaten and gotten our compression shorts in a bunch over some hypothetical match up between 11 young NBA players (and Kobe Bryant) and 11 graying Hall of Famers (and Christian Laettner). Can this team beat the Dream Team? Who cares. Tell me about Russia. Up until now, Team
Sheridan: Lessons learned vs. Lithuania
Well, you can’t win ’em all by 83. And when your one and only experienced center plays just 8 minutes, there is a problem in both rebounding and protecting the rim. Those are two of the lessons learned Saturday by Team USA in their narrow victory over Lithuania. Next up is Argentina, which is a better and more experienced team. For a take on the game from a Lithuanian-American tavern in Queens, give a read to today’s Diary of The Uncredentialed. //

Another big day in Olympic basketball today, as Team USA took on one of the strongest teams in the competition, Lithuania. For a report on that, check out the fifth installment in Chris Sheridan’s Diary of the Uncredentialed. Also, if you missed it yesterday, look at Nick Gibson’s preview of today’s Olympic action, and compare his predictions to what actually went down. Check back a little later for his recap of all the action today. And now, as always, here’s the

Shaq on the free throw line today!!! My bad USA. Good win for us. Needed a game like that. On to the next. — Kevin Love (@kevinlove) August 4, 2012 Kevin Love shot just 3-for-8 from the foul line in Saturday’s nail-biter of a victory over Lithuania, and the Americans missed 12 shots in all from the charity stripe before being bailed out by LeBron James down the stretch. What can we take from this game? I go into it in a little more
