After losing the fame of being the best basketball team in the world for two years straight at the past Olympic meetings, the USA is back in a great way.
There is no doubt that they have being superior to each one of their rivals at Beijing, and with a team made of true superstars, they are getting closer to bring home the Gold medal.
USA’s last win came against Spain by 119-82, a truly slaughter for the current FIBA world champions on Chinese ground.
Currently the Americans are 4-0, and it seems like they have no real rivals at the Olympics this time around.
There is no doubt that every single member of the team has performed outstandingly, but the resurgence of Dwayne Wade is something to notice, as he’s performing as well as he did back in the 2006 NBA finals, when the Heat won the championship to the Mavericks and he received the MVP honors.
Of course you cannot forget about the great chemistry between Kobe Bryant and Lebron James, whom are possibly the best two players in the NBA
Also the talents of Dwight Howard and Carmelo Anthony are essential for the team’s performance.
Critics saw Spain as a road block for the elite basketball team, but the USA showed that they are on a level on their own, and that to match them is an almost impossible task.
