    Full highlights as the United States beat Lithuania 99-94 in the Men's Preliminary Round Group A match from the Basketball Arena during the London 2012 Olympic Games.
    Basketball made its appearance at the Olympic Games in 1904 in St Louis as a demonstration sport, as the competition was held between only American teams and counted as an event of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU of the USA) Championships.
    At the Games in 1936 in Berlin, basketball joined the Olympic programme, where it has remained to this day. Women's basketball debuted at the 1976 Games in Montreal.

    Funny thing is our basketball "godfather" (Lithuanian guy) played for US in 1936 olympics where he won gold and then in 1939 European gold with Lithuania. We have strong ties with basketball, there is just not enough of us to produce the talent in the amounts to rival you guys. I watched 92 Dream team live on tv when I was a boy. I still remember where I was when we got beat by 57 or something. No one compares to those players.

They used to rely on drive, and run n'gun game, but now that they are implying a new game style, and adding the great shooters on the team? it would be tough for any team to beat them.

    Sarunas Jasikevicius is a legend, but he nearly ruined the game with this turnovers. And for a deadly sniper as he is, Simas Jasaitis took just one shot and was doing poorly in defence. The rest of the team were just brilliant, especially Linas Kleiza.

      Thats because the majority of their population is poor. And it's a different culture. You can't compare it. And basketball is far from popular in india.

      Jerry B Andérson Poor or rich it doesn't matter. Do you know what type of people basketball is popular among in America and where do you think some of best talent in the USA came from? I'll give you a hint it was not an upper class white suburb.

  • @diasaidlv
    @diasaidlv 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This shows that the US is no longer a dream team at +20 points. There were times when even students could go to the cup and win gold medals. Basketball has become very balanced and that's great.

    Well we are obviously the best at basketball. We've been the best at basketball since 1936.... that's kinda a given. But lately we have been sacrificing teamwork for individual performance and it shows. We have also sacrificed big men in the NBA. This you need to be aware of. Cause honestly beating spain by like 7 points is shameful considering we have a team of Lebron, Kobe, Carmelo and Durant. It shouldn't even be close

  • @srcoolguy

    big countries like usa/france/germany/russia/brazil/spain et cetera should be broken down based on population/wealth so we can actually see real games. and don't give me china/india arguments, especially india because they are so broke. china dominates in many sports.
    imagine these basketball games, they would be great:
    Lithuania vs Long Island national team (about 10 million pop)
    Croatia vs Los Angeles County national team (about 10 million pop)
    Serbia vs Illinois national team (about 12 million pop)

      They don't do it for any other sport so why do it for this? Look at soccer tiny countries do fine in that sport.

    • @srcoolguy
      @srcoolguy 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      5rocklobsters i'm saying do this for all sports... and no... just no, tiny nations don't do just fine in soccer, that is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. soccer is dominated by big countries and some small countries work there way in once in a while by over achieving (just like other sports). how many world cups has germany, france, england, spain, brazil, argentina, and italy won compared to every single country with 3 million people? (there are dozens of countries those size) (: can you even name one small country that won it all? there is only one!

    • @srcoolguy
      @srcoolguy 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      5rocklobsters and if you need evidence for my soccer claim go here, it's for 2010 but i will do 2014 also (pop = available population which accounts for anyone living on at least $10 a day and between the ages of 15 and 64, this is why i say wealth matters too... people need nutrition as well as leisure time in order to be good at sports): docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16izHFOKdbiSzRqj-ykeVQaqNJZ1SY8uPYHo2TFO5vcM
      wealth and population contribute to potential of sports without question.
