USA vs Angola: Halftime

by pollackj on Aug 12, 2008 7:46 AM CDT

Halftime of USA vs Angola and the occupiers of Iraq are up comfortably, 55-37. The game was pretty close there for a while, until somebody reminded Lebron James that there are a lot of potential customers watching. Then he started volleyball-spiking Angolan shot attempts and doing double-clutch dunks.

I should also point out that Kobe is 0-5 from the field while Lebron and Howard have combined to go 10-10 in the first half.
