LeBron James leads Team USA past Germany in London
LONDON -- Here is something for everyone in the basketball world to understand as the Olympics, perhaps the most competitive international tournament in history, are about to get started:
LeBron James is not messing around.
He may be 39 and named the country's flag-bearer, but this is no ceremonial moment.
On Monday night, as he put on another display of dominance and will in front of the largest crowd to ever watch a basketball game in London, the fans, the opponents and even his peers on Team USA could only watch in awe.
With Germany, the current FIBA World Cup champion, trying to send a message by knocking off the Americans just days before the start of the Olympics, James grabbed control of the game in the same manner he has done since he was a teenager.
