USA beats Germany

August 4, 2004

I watched the second half of this game, and it was awesome. Germany was down 1 with 20 seconds left and had to foul three times to get USA on the foul line. Carmello hit both free throws to put USA up 3 and Germany got the ball back with about 13 seconds left. The bring the ball down the court and hit Dirk who makes an incredible 3 pointer with two guys in his face to tie the game with 4 seconds left. Then Allen Iverson gets the ball and makes an even more incredible leaping half court shot to win the game. Except we didn't get to see it when it happened due to horrendous camera work, which let us see the crowd while Iverson hit the game winner.

Dirk ended up with 32 I think, and was the best player in the game.
