not to mention the relentless hustle of the euros.

grabe ang hustle play ng italy, sayang naubusan ng gas sa 2nd half.

Melo is anchoring Team USA's defense.

Yan ang grabe ang hustle. Harassing the guards outside of the trey zone, good positioning in the free throw line, etc.

Battier is also an x-factor in wearing down players.

Though Brand's shotblocking presence also helps.

Team USA still relies heavily on individual brilliance than team play. Buti na lang pag off ang iba parating may in the groove. Klaseng si Wade at si Anthony lang most consistent.

amen to that. the first half was awful. kirk hinrich was repeatedly burned by the italian point guard, lebron was out of his game and nobody was rebounding. also they threw hissy fits, forced shots, couldnt make their free throws
