'We were embarrassed at halftime': US relieved after escape against underdogs South Sudan

[moniss]

4. I watched the end of the game and the media

actually missed most of the story by just talking about the Lebron drive to the bucket. It was an incredible drive putting them up by one point but after that South Sudan had rebounded their missed last shot attempt to go ahead but excellent defensive play by Anthony Davis partially blocked the attempted put back by South Sudan and then the clock ran out. If Davis had not made that stop the put back was going to be a dunk and we would have lost by one. Likewise if he had fouled then we could have been looking at losing it that way on free throws. Excellent play by AD and when you see him go to the bench his teammates recognize him for that.
