Kobe has definitely lost a step. He's hurting his team out there with his selfish play.

Lovely little jump hook by Ibaka over Melo.

Fair play to Spain. They've done fantastically well to hang in there against Team USA.

This game has been completely at the pace that Spain wants, and that's what I was concerned about before it started. Getting to the paint, effective enough defense ... it's at times like these that my love for the underdog backfires on me. Here's hoping the fourth quarter brings some urgency to the U.S..

USA exerting control early on in the 4th. This is what I've been wanting to see all game.

Chris Paul setting the tone for the 4th quarter. He has a complete sense of the moment and the ability to capitalize. I think he'll start to set up Kobe or Lebron.

Terrible rebounding by Spain. Given up three offensive rebounds in three minutes. Not even close on some of those. Awful.

Oh my, wide open lane to the rim for LeBron.

Horrific breakdown defensively this late in the game.
