Yahoo Sports contributor Isis “Ice” Young reacts to USA’s dominant 85-64 win over Australia to lock in their 60th-straight Olympic win and advance to the championship gold medal game.
Straight domination.
I know guys.
It’s, it’s nothing new with team USA women’s basketball.
All they do is dominate.
That’s all they know how to do.
60 straight Olympic wins that came in their semifinal today versus team Australia final score 85 to 64.
They were in complete control the entire game.
I mean, defense to offense, getting out and scoring in transition.
They controlled the tempo and the pace of this game.
It seemed as if the Aussies never seemed comfortable, they never seemed in control.
Team usa every point had their foot on the gas pedal.
I gotta throw some numbers at you.
It’s the same culprits that we continue to talk about.
Breanna Stewart 16 points today, six rebounds and five assists.
Asia Wilson with 10 points and four blocks so good defensively as Asia Wilson, she also had eight rebounds.
Jackie Young with her third straight game in double figures with 14 points.
She also added five assists.
And then I have to tell you this is my favorite person to talk about right now.
It’s Ka Copper, maybe it’s because I’m somewhat near from Philly, but Ka Copper from North Philly got 20 minutes today in us A’s game.
She hadn’t played a lot in Olympic play but scored double figures, 11 points, four of nine, shooting also six rebounds for ka.
Again, this game was just domination.
They dominated for three quarters and the last quarter got a little out of hand.
But by that time, the king was basically decided, I have to say what I actually love the most about.
Team us A’s basketball right now is the way that they share the basketball, 31 assists on 34 made shots.
Basketball.
Gods, I feel like that has to be the best thing we’ve seen.
They’re on to the gold medal game, which is Sunday again, 60 straight Olympic wins and they’re looking for their eighth straight consecutive gold medal team USA.
