They are unbeatable!
Five wins with zero defeat, that's the record of the U.S. Olympic basketball team as they've wrapped their exhibition games prior to the Olympic games. However, the last game will be considered the toughest test; though they pulled away to beat Australia 87-76.
Australia had definitely performed very well in keeping the Americans sink those shots. The U.S. team relied on an aggressive defensive effort to overcome a horrendous night from 3-point range and the free throw line, the same areas that proved costly in their semifinal loss to Greece in the world championships two years ago.
Wade scored 22 points and LeBron James had 16 for the Americans, who finished 3-of-18 from behind the arc and 20-of-33 (61 percent) at the foul line.
Bryant scored 13 points and Carmelo Anthony had 12 points and 10 rebounds for the United States, which faces host China on Sunday in its Olympic opener.
