Kobe Leads Team USA To Victory Over Argentina 91-76
Posted by Jeff Sack under Main
Team USA will go into Saturday’s FIBA Championship of the Americas semi-final as the number one seed after defeating Argentina 91-76 Thursday night. Although it was the USA team’s smallest margin of victory, the game was never in doubt (anytime that Bill Walton tells you half through the second quarter that Argentina is Spanish for silver you have a pretty one sided game.) Both teams came into the game with 6-0 records, Team USA will play the fourth seed Puerto Rico while Argentina will play third seed Brazil. Leading the way for Team USA was Kobe Bryant who scored 27 15 in the first quarter. Carmelo Anthony put in 18 and LeBron James contributed with 15. Team Argentina was without a lot of their top players including Manu Ginobli, Fabricio Oberto, and Andres Nocioni. Luis Scola led Argentina with 20.
