Dream Team is finally dreaming again!

The US team put on a fantastic effort tonight, beating Greece, a team they once lost to 2 years ago in the world championships 101-95...

Well they certainly showed them tonight. The US dream team finally gave their fans something to dream about, with their aggressive defence that did not let up till the last minute, countless turnovers (18 i think) creaming the Greece team 92-69!


That's why this young US team is now called the "redeem team", showing opponents that this US team is far from the team the were 2 years ago.

Some Statistics::

Kobe Bryant 18 points
Chris Bosh 18 points
Dwayne Wade 17 points
Lebron James 13 points

So the US team is now 3-0, tied at the top of group B with unbeaten team Spain, which they will meet this Saturday. Regardless of the results though, the USA team WILL be going to the medal round.

The king!
Amazing performance by Dwayne Wade tonight
Monster dunk
Kobe's unbreakable defence
The star and the rising prodigy (quick fact: both stars were drafted straight into the NBA right after high school)
