Argentina Knocks Serbia Out Of The World Cup

Before the FIBA World Cup started, the Serbian coach Aleksandar u0110ordevic showed some real bravado about possibly playing the US saying basically that the US should worry about his team more than his should worry about theirs.

Well it’s all moot now: Argentina, the finest basketball power in Latin America, sent the Serbs home Tuesday winning 97-87.

The US shouldn’t chortle just yet. We’re in the knockout phase now and France is no joke. And if the US does manage to beat France on Wednesday then Argentina is the next team up for Team USA.
