Monday Musings: Olympic Gold

The USA teams dominated in their final match-ups at the Olympics this past weekend. The Women's utter destruction of the competition was always something of a given considering their continued success throughout the tournament, but the Men's game was somewhat in doubt as the finals game against Serbia was a rematch of an earlier pool game where the US team only won 100-97, with a last second three-point attempt from the Serbian team almost forcing the game into overtime.

This time around, the outcome was never in question after the first quarter, at the end of which the US team was only winning by four points, as the shooting ability, size, and athleticism of the US team proved too much to handle for Serbia.
