As Team USA wins another gold, Jerry Colangelo urges rest of world to 'get their act together and compete'
RIO DE JANEIRO – The gold medals were already dangling around the necks of 12 players who had only a month to come together and maintain United States basketball supremacy when USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo came around the podium, avoiding the glare of lime green sneakers, to present some extra swag.This Olympic journey came with a few bumps – "some BS," as DeMarcus Cousins put it – for Team USA, so it almost felt appropriate that the celebration also included a blooper.As he prepared to hand one of the mini-trophies to Kevin Durant, Colangelo watched as the Rio logo atop the base slipped off and shattered on the floor.

It took them the whole tournament, but USA Basketball finally came together.Team USA's Olympic basketball roster came together a little over a month ago, a fact made obvious by their play in Rio.They struggled through the group stages, fought for a tough victory in the semifinal against Spain and looked to be in for a dogfight against Serbia in the gold-medal game.

It's time for Team USA to get serious, nasty in Rio
Here comes the fire, the blazing brand of basketball that surely will result in gold medals for the men of Team USA in the Rio Olympics.This latest version of the national team, like all those assembled since 1992, was built to roar through international competition, incinerating every opponent.With coach Mike Krzyzewski and his staff shepherding 12 of the best players in the world, this squad surely would destroy everything in its path.
