LeBron Leads Team USA to Gold Medal Game. Plus Vincent, Hood-Schifino Should be Healthy for the Lakers

It wasn't easy, but Team USA got it done on Thursday, thanks to a huge fourth quarter comeback that eliminated Serbia and sent the Americans to the Gold Medal game vs. France. Final score, 95-91. Not terribly surprising, but in the middle of it all was LeBron James. Yep, the oldest guy on the team was arguably its best player throughout (at least the best player not named Steph Curry). 16 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists and a steal in a summer-high 30 minutes on the floor. And the US needed every bit of it in order to advance. It's easy to repeat the platitudes for James... and there's a reason for that. It's simply incredible for someone who has been doing it this long to maintain this level of play. The same, or nearly the same at least, can be said for Steph and Kevin Durant, who was also excellent on Thursday. Really, it was a good day for the old guard. Now the US moves on to play the French, who eliminated Germany in a thriller earlier in the day. Once again, Rudy Gobert barely played, which sets up an interesting conversation not only about US vs. France, but Gobert vs. the NBA. Meanwhile, there are updates on two players who barely had a chance to suit up last year for LA -- Gabe Vincent and Jalen Hood-Schifino. Any chance the latter contributes after a disastrous rookie year? HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: LeBron leads Team USA. SEGMENT 2: US vs. France for the gold.
