The Argies are hanging in there. They got the lead down to 11 a couple of times in the 3rd quarter.

Seems to be getting a bit tighter as the game progresses...

46-40 US until a 3 point foul gave the US a 49-40 halftime margin.

14 is a only a pittance in basketball terms. Besides only the last two minutes are really important basketball.

But with Ginobli apparently claiming injury and Scola in foul trouble perhaps they can cling to a victory.

Unless the refs decide to make it interesting. You never know who they have their yuan on...
