Jaylen Brown once again shooting poorly at the FT line against Turkey.

Tatum had sweet and one eurostep move in 2nd quarter. Walker his decent self, otherwise very quiet half for Celtics. Brown 1-3 from foul line, including a technical called on defender guarding him. Hope NBA adopts that rule.

Ersan Illyasova has gotten more calls this game than James Harden gets in a season.

Seriously. Every time down the court Turkey is getting a call. Dumb calls. Nonsense calls.

USA gets called for moving screens, but Turkey does the same thing and don't get called.

This is the same thing that happened in the first. Refs keeping Turkey in the game by giving them a ton of calls early in the quarter.

But he has made some really good decisions with the basketball.

Bank open for Walker with 40 foot 3 pointer at end of 3rd. Ugly quarter for US. Up 4.

Tatum had a tip and then a block to force a shot clock violation. Then Walker had a three to beat the 3rd quarter buzzer. USA up 4.

Mitchell also looks like he may have hurt his shoulder on a drive where he was pretty obviously fouled. He might be back though.

Team USA holding tough in spite of the adversity.

Brazil with an exciting win over Greece. Giannis had some chances off Brazil mistakes but they played strong and won by 1 point.
Baby Jesus!

Barnes has had multiple turnovers. Wonder when Pop goes back to Brown.

Walker has made multiple really good defensive plays over the past few minutes, including forcing a moving screen.

Tatum fouled with no time left for two foul shots to tie game.

Overtime. 2/3 foul shots made by Tatum.

Puzzling that Brown has not played any minutes in 2nd half.
