USA takes home basketball gold, wins over France - so much talent (non bike post)

Wheels of Happiness

USA takes home gold in mens basketball with victory over France.  Probably evens up medal haul with China who was ahead as of Saturdday. 

USA simply had too much talent. Curry drilled in 24 points for the victory.   Tatum did not matter much in scoring.   Kerr was right in not using Tatum vs Serbia

Congratulations USA team and to the oldies who made this happen

Non bike post - how old players: KD, Curry and Le Bron James saved Team USA from defeat vs Serbia

Wheels of Happiness

One of the greatest game ever?   Down most of the game, Curry sizzled scored 36 points (up from measly performance in previous games)   KD clutch points, and Le Bron working hard through out the game, eked out a victory over the brilliant, high scoring Serbians.  Only the veteran grizzles  could have eked such a victory.

UP win vs La Salle and massive route of UST by NU - level of play at UAAP has gone up

Wheels of Happiness

In the absence of any biking activity due to fractured shoulder, this post has no choice but to watch TV the whole day. and nothing is more interesting than the  UAAP basketball game  I watched the close fight in the morning between La Salle and UP.  La Salle.  La Salle lead most of the way but UP came back and edged La Salle.  UP had 2 points spread which it protected in the dying minutes.  You cant but admire the grit and determination of the UP squad which was catching up only earlier in the game.Zav Lucero was UP's hero.  UP had spectacular treys lay ups  and even dunks in the last quarter.   It was surprising for the audience and even to La Salle

It was different in the afternoon in the match between NU and UST.  It was a rout a massacre of UST 82 -51.  NU which gave scare to Ateneo too (unbeaten) methodically widened its lead through lay ups, brilliant play and even a trey.  

It is going to be an exciting season
