NY Times on USA basketball

24 August, 2008

On the "redeem team" performance:

After embarrassing the United States on and off the court in Athens, this so-called Redeem Team lived up to its moniker with vigor. The players guarded as if their meals depended on it, shared the ball as if they were starring in “Hoosiers” and made not even a wisp of trouble off the court.

I didn't get to watch them play, but if they lived up to that description I missed something great. (Via NY Times)
