00:00The United States takes the floor as it prepares for its final tune-up before the Olympic Games
00:05and they'll square off with one of the great countries in the world.
00:09Against Booker, the rebound for Embiid, the outlook feed for LeBron James and the reverse adjustment.
00:16A pretty good message early, and how about this look?
00:20Terrific opportunity basket here, Ron Leacon.
00:23Embiid was a little sluggish at times in the last contest against South Sudan.
00:31Here comes Schroeder.
00:34See how they come off that screen?
00:35And a quick trigger for Post.
00:38Tice the offensive rebound and another chance.
00:40You gotta tag your guy on that cut.
00:43A deep Schroeder triple to put him on top by two.
00:46Does so much of this for the Orlando Magic.
00:48Short on the jumper, Holliday grabs it.
00:50James, up top and down hard.
00:55How about the read, Holliday?
00:59Schroeder and Tice are so good on this team together.
01:01Running the pick and roll, running inside seals.
01:04Embiid misfires the rebound avoidment.
01:09Schroeder pulls up for another deep travel, his second.
01:13And LeBron got a little bit of soccer in his background as well.
01:17He does.
01:18Nice play.
01:18Speed, Franz Wagner with the easy finish.
01:21A couple of veterans here.
01:23A lot of individual play for the USA.
01:26You see the help defense.
01:27There's no defensive three-second violations here.
01:30Holliday hits a three.
01:32And a nice fine two.
01:34Halfway through the first, good cut by Holliday.
01:36Extra feed for Embiid.
01:37There's that double team.
01:39Back to Holliday, his triple goes down again.
01:42Nice relocation by Holliday.
01:45He was able to get past Edwards on the initial defense.
01:49Looking to post Tatum against Schroeder.
01:51These guys know each other well.
01:53Fading jumper for Tatum.
01:56Two minutes left in the first.
01:58USA really doing a nice job with spacing that time.
02:02And the cut.
02:02How about the cut?
02:03The fine.
02:04Pretty.
02:05And again, down the floor early.
02:07A nice read that time by Davis.
02:11Pretty look too.
02:13That open middle.
02:15The shake by Tatum over Bunga.
02:17Left it short.
02:17White punched it.
02:18Bunga runs it down.
02:20And Ezak slows it up.
02:22Nice cut.
02:23For Marner!
02:24I hear just a little bit of a delay.
02:26The fine at big time.
02:27Send it in out of Michigan.
02:30Mo!
02:32Trying to get his field back.
02:35He's not as effective offensively the other day against South Sudan.
02:38That goes down.
02:39You just talked about Lowe's ability from three.
02:41He can bite you.
02:43Does have a tendency with this group.
02:45Edwards with the pick.
02:46On the push.
02:48On the chase and he jams it.
02:51Oh, he is electrified.
02:53This kid.
02:53The floor.
02:54The rest.
02:56Impressive.
02:57And for him, rather simple.
03:00The Franz and Mo connection is out there for Germany with Schroeder.
03:04Weaving his way.
03:05James the erasure.
03:07How about that?
03:08Boy, tough getting in the lane though.
03:10Schroeder.
03:11Not much space.
03:12Curry doesn't need it.
03:14Absolutely.
03:15Blue guy.
03:16Oftentimes, Daniel Tice shows up on rosters and is just a nice blue guy to have in the middle.
03:20Knocked away by Tice from LeBron James.
03:24Schroeder waits.
03:25A Wagner triple.
03:26That's good.
03:26Wow.
03:28Time and distance.
03:29See how they come off that screen.
03:31Yep.
03:32Obstend to re-corral it.
03:33Tice get back.
03:34That's a great find by Franz Wagner.
03:39A little crossover.
03:40Curry.
03:41Bunga tips it out alive.
03:43Bunga tips it out alive, but into the hands of Adebayo.
03:45Nice pass.
03:46Edwards to Embiid.
03:49The southeast of the NBA.
03:50Bunga on the attack.
03:52Embiid on the block.
03:53What a reaction.
03:55Edwards to Cross.
03:57All the way.
04:00Some lingerie on the deck on that one.
04:03Lehman.
04:04Defenders in the dust.
04:06It starts on that defensive end.
04:08That is Voigtman for three.
04:14He didn't get rained.
04:15And you just see the drop coverage.
04:18They left Voigtman for another triple.
04:20He's missed two in a row now.
04:22Boxed out by Embiid to take Tice out,
04:24but that allowed Wagner to get there.
04:26Schroeder hits.
04:27That's what happens.
04:29Here comes Franz Wagner.
04:30Not a good run out of the timeout.
04:33Tice.
04:34He's been better than about 33-34% for his NBA career.
04:39That's decent.
04:40A little bit below league average,
04:41but decent for his size.
04:42Yeah, nobody really at home defensively that trip.
04:45Tough shot here.
04:46And LeBron puts the U.S. right back on top.
04:50But the Germans have taken a short-lived lead.
04:52Embiid has been a presence defensively.
04:55Here he is for a three.
04:57He can knock him down and he does.
04:59He sure can.
05:00Unaccustomed to a big guy that deep.
05:04James.
05:04Just a little bit of space for a three.
05:08He's made two big baskets here.
05:12How about Voigtman?
05:13He's been crashing the offensive glass.
05:15Schroeder.
05:15Off to Tice.
05:18That's the early offense.
05:19Uh-oh.
05:20Boxed.
05:21And it's jammed into the follow by Tice.
05:23How about Tice running the floor?
05:26Drolls.
05:27Here's the slip.
05:29There he is.
05:29For him right on cue, ref.
05:33Again, using the screen and a foul.
05:35A chance and a four-point play.
05:38And who...
05:39But...
05:40Obst.
05:41Again.
05:42There's Sharpshooter.
05:45Obst.
05:46To Wagner.
05:47For three.
05:49You gotta be there.
05:52Good job by Curry to separate.
05:54Davis with a nice offensive rebound and a foul.
05:57A chance to tie it at the line.
05:58Boy, he did a great job locking this guy under the rim.
06:02There's Curry.
06:04Behind the back against Bonga.
06:05Accelerated.
06:06Drive.
06:07Scores and a foul.
06:08How about...
06:08It's just a heady play right here.
06:10Little fake.
06:11Freezes Wagner.
06:13Able to blow by and finish.
06:15Good feed by Obst to Franz.
06:17Good recovery by Booker on defense.
06:18How about the hands?
06:21And now Booker from Curry.
06:22Draws some contact.
06:24Got it to go.
06:25And a foul.
06:26The U.S. leads.
06:29Right here, just great hands.
06:30Great position defensively.
06:32And runs the floor as well.
06:35How about that?
06:36Got that left hand knocked down.
06:38A lot of shooters on the floor.
06:40Nice cut.
06:41Schroeder.
06:42Beautiful feed.
06:43It's Obst for three.
06:48And Beat Corrals.
06:50Finds James.
06:51Knifing through with the left hand.
06:53And a nice play.
06:54Schroeder trying to come from the wing.
06:56The backside.
06:57Nice run here and saved by James.
07:00He hit it on offense.
07:01And he comes back for the defense.
07:04U.S. has the lead.
07:05LeBron trying to take over.
07:07He's running inside.
07:10Just physically so imposing.
07:13But his ability to adjust that big body to it.
07:17Just take advantage.
07:18Exploit people.
07:22There's Curry.
07:23Against Schroeder.
07:24The spin.
07:24The drive.
07:25The block by Schroeder.
07:27Three could tie it.
07:29And Obst the man to do it.
07:30Schroeder drives.
07:31Up top for Tice.
07:33It's a one point game.
07:34And how about the look away too.
07:39Booker.
07:41Davis.
07:42LeBron James open for three.
07:46Talk about the moment.
07:51A lot of post screens.
07:55James.
07:56Late in the clock.
07:57LeBron James bodying.
07:59Inside he scores.
08:01He's a man.
08:02Goodness does he take over.
08:06That crunch time.
08:07Get them organized.
08:09Whether it's defense.
08:11The puppies for the three.
08:13He has just been extraordinary in here.
08:15Power taken on.
08:16Decimating the inside of the Germany defense.
08:20He is pretty special.
