The third viewing of USA-China in men’s basketball this summer looked just like the previous two.
After pounding China by a combined 99 points in two exhibition games in July, the USA won 119-62 on Saturday in the Olympic opener for both teams.
Too much offense, too much defense and too much talent propelled the USA to its 46th consecutive victory in international competition and its 18th consecutive Olympic victory.
“We played really hard and we shared the ball. In the third quarter, on every bucket we made, it was assisted,” U.S. coach Mike Krzyzewski said of a game in which the USA had 31 assists on 38 baskets. “If we keep playing hard and keep sharing the ball, I think we’re going to get better.”
Forwards Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony — the only two holdovers from the2012 London Olympics gold-medal team — led the way.
