Let's see how this quarter goes before we clench.

[Rikibellevie]

US has luck to come back with a tie score. They were minus 11 4 minutes before half, are ice cold at 3, doesn't show hustle or IQ. Durant scored 5 points in a row to put them back in the game.

US are increadibly soft, at least it won't change Tatum from last year. But talent may save US

[Ogaju]

Please update the score.

[ozgod]

USA 53-45 with a Booker 3 with 7:03 left in the third

[ozgod]

Spain has dominated rebounds 29-16 but the US starting to hit some shots now

[ozgod]

KD with 3 3s this quarter 56-47, great drive and kick by Jrue

[ozgod]

Transition basket for Booker after a steal, 58-47, biggest lead for the US i think

[ozgod]

They've found their range from 3, LaVine hits a corner 3 after another Jrue pass from under the basket to an open shooter.  63-49 now. Spain haven't made a field goal in the 2nd half, all their points from Rubio at the line

[Ogaju]

What’s up with JT?

[ozgod]

He's on the court now, Spain making a run, 69-63. Tatum had the chance to hit a 3 at the end of the quarter but faked and lost the opportunity and they settled for a bad shot from Middleton. Spain 11-2 to end the quarter.

[ozgod]

Team USA pushes the lead back to 8 - 74-66 after Dame shot

[ozgod]

KD and Rubio both on the bench right now...Rubio beasting with 24 points if I recall correctly

[ozgod]

Tatum hits a 3, 77-66

[ozgod]

Yuge 3 from JT to push the lead to 81-66

Rubio answers with a 3 on the other end 81-69. Rubio has 30 now
