The opening ceremony for the 2020 Olympics (2021 edition) is only 10 days away and Team USA is really struggling on the basketball court. The Americans lost to Nigeria in their first exhibition game last Saturday, then fell to 0-2 in exhibition play with a loss to Australia last night. Throw in the seventh-place finish in the 2019 FIBA World Cup and it has been four losses in five games for our home country, an embarrassing low for the same program that gave us the Dream Team and Vince Carter jumping over a seven-footer.
Team USA is back in action tonight against Argentina in the third of five exhibition games in Las Vegas before heading off to Tokyo for the Olympic Games.
