...even scarier that 2 point 4th quarter was a legit 2points i think--as the looser gets the usa in the quarters. as rex pointed out it came down to slovenia's trademark offensive efficiency deserting them as lithuania looked far superior defensively and athletically. that being said slovenia got some good looks, they just didn't go down. what i took out of it is slovenia may struggle against the more physical teams in the knockout stage, and could melt down if their shots aren't falling. lithuania meanwhile is capable of lockin it down on defense but there offense will desert them for stretches as they miss some of key players in this tourney, especially the point guard. bottom line--this always was, still is, and in the end will be a 2 team tournament.
