Team USA Women's Basketball Advances With 86-73 Win Over Australia

After absolutely dominating their first six games in the Olympic basketball tournament, Team USA got their first real scare on Thursday in their semifinal game against Australia.

The Aussies, led by their twin towers (6'8 Elizabeth Cambage, 6'5 Lauren Jackson) upfront, actually led the Americans 47-43 at halftime.

However, the Americans depth and athleticism wore down Australia in the second half, as they pulled away to advance to the gold medal game with an 86-73.

Tamika Catchings of Duncanville, a two-time gold medalist playing in her last Olympics, was part of a deep front-court that wore the taller Australian post players down. She finished with 7 points and 7 rebounds on 2/4 shooting.

Cambage, only 20 years old, had 19 points and 7 rebounds on 8/13 shooting, but a lack of scoring from the Australian perimeter players ended up being their undoing.

With the win, Team USA got a much-needed wake-up call before their gold medal game on Saturday, where they will play the winner of the France/Russia semifinal.

Sanya Richards-Ross, who resides in Austin, Texas, finished in fifth place with a time of 22.39.

Felix won the race by posting a 21.88 time, over half a second off of the world record set by Florence Griffith Joyner in 1988 (21.34).

2012 London Olympics: Dallas Boxer Errol Spence Defeated In Flyweight Semifinals

Dallas-born Errol Spence was defeated 16-11 by Russian Andrey Zamkovoy on Wednesday, and just like that, the United States was guaranteed to go without a single medal in Olympic boxing, a huge disappointment for a once-dominant sport for Team USA (quote courtesy of the AP):

“It’s very disappointing for all of us, but we all fought hard and tried,” said Spence, who couldn’t capitalize after his apparent last-gasp loss to India’s Krishan Vikas last week was overturned on appeal.

So what's happened to American boxing in international competition? There's a ton of theories SB Nation blog Bad Left Hook breaks down the painful situation for America's boxing hopes in 2012:

Team USA are done. You'll probably hear a lot of people say it was a robbery or the like. It wasn't. We tend to have trouble admitting losses. I've even heard that Jamel Herring was robbed. Oh well. Spence gave an effort but never looked totally comfortable in there. Zamkovoy was more polished, which has been a problem in Beijing and London for the American team, and that comes down to coaching and the system itself more than our athletes, but then I already said this stuff.

2012 London Olympics: U.S. Still Trails China In The Medal Battle

The United States grabbed four medals thanks to track and field on Tuesday, but still trail the Chinese in the overall medal count as well as the gold. But beware! The British are coming! Not really, but relative to their prior efforts, this year's games have been kind to its hosts. Y'all know the drill at this point. Let's take an 8-bit look:

Historically host countries take a bump up against their average of medals won, and the usual home field advantage has paid off again, as the host Brits are in third place with 48 medals (22 gold) aided by Saturday's six-gold effort.

There's still a chance for the U.S. to catch China in the home stretch, especially with the conclusion of many track and field events yet to come, but the window is beginning to close. It's possible that these Olympic Games could see a repeat of the finish in Beijing in 2008, when the Chinese boasted the most gold, but the U.S. the most medals.

London Olympics 2012: Marquise Goodwin Fails To Medal In Long Jump

Texas Longhorns wide receiver and track star Marquise Goodwin was expected to win a medal in the long jump in the Olympics. However, Goodwin did not have his best performance and finished in a disappointing 10th place. After the preliminary rounds of competition, Goodwin was tied for first place with Brazil's Mauro Vinicius da Silvaa as both had a jump of 8.11 meters.

Goodwin needed only one jump to advance, and that mark of 8.11 meters was still short of his 8.33 meter jump at the Olympic trials. In the finals Goodwin's first jump did not count and his final two jumps were 7.8 meters and 7.76 meters. Those jumps had Goodwin fall all the way down to a 10th place finish.

Even had Goodwin jumped the same distance as the prelims he would have still failed to medal since third place was 8.12 meters. However, had he jumped the same distance at the Olympic trials of 8.33 meters he would have defeated Great Britain's Greg Rutherford who jumped 8.31 meters and would have won the gold medal.

Team USA Swimming: Brendan Hansen Wins Gold Medal As Part Of 400m Medley Relay

Former Texas Longhorn Brendan Hansen won his third medal at the 2012 London Olympic Games as he was part of the 4x100m medley relay team that won the gold medal with a time of 3:29.35. Team USA dominated the race and finished 1.91 seconds over second place Japan and 2.23 seconds ahead of Australia who won the bronze medal.

Hansen swims the breaststroke leg and in the finals he swam a split of 59.19. However, Japan's Kosuke Kitajima who has been Hansen's rival over the past decade helped get Japan from fourth to first after his breaststroke swim.

Michael Phelps swam the butterfly leg and helped the United States take over the lead after his swim, and then Nathan Adrian swam the freestyle leg and held off the competition to help win the gold medal for the United States.

2012 London Olympics Power Rankings: Michael Phelps, Gabby Douglas And Allison Schmitt Represent Team USA

With Michael Phelps winning his 20th medal at the London Olympics and the coming out parties of Gabby Douglas and Allison Schmitt, it's only right they all rank high in the SB Nation London Olympics Power Rankings by Andrew Sharp.

The post gives you commentary on the Opening Ceremony last week, which ranks No. 19 in the top 25. Michelle Obama's hug fest for Team USA made it in at No. 22. There's also the awkwardness of eulogizing Ryan Lochte's 2012 Olympics. What a disappointment.

There's still plenty of Olympics to be seen, so expect more power rankings to come. But for now, this one is all about Phelps, Douglas, Schmitt and the letdown of Lochte and Miss Franklin in comparison to their teammates.

Olympic Games 2012: USA, China Lead Medal Count After Monday

It could have been a much bigger day for the Americans on Monday at the London Olympics, but it was successful overall since they managed to tie China for the lead in the overall medal count with 17. China still by far has the most gold medals, with nine compared to the USA's five.

Disappointment came for the U.S. when Ryan Lochte, favorite to win gold in the men's 200-meter freestyle, was placed fourth in the race. The winner was Yannick Agnel, the young French who has been very impressive in these Olympics so far.

Take a look at the top five in the medal count right here:

China, 17 (9 gold, 5 silver, 3 bronze)
United States, 17 (5, 7, 5)
Japan, 11 (1, 4, 6)
Italy, 8 (2, 4, 2)
France, 7 (3, 1, 3)

It's also worth noting the only team beyond that top five with three gold medals is North Korea; Great Britain moved into a five-way tie for ninth with its third medal.

London Olympics 2012: Ryan Lochte Swims In Men's 200m Freestyle

Sun Yang of China and Yannick Agnel of France present challenges for Lochte in this race, even though he's the clear favorite to win. Yang already has a gold medal in the 400m free this Olympics and Agnel beat Lochte by a full second in the anchor leg of the 4x100 relay on Sunday.

The race is schedule for 2: 30 p.m. ET, but of course, American televisions won't get the broadcast until NBC airs at 8 p.m. ET. Check out the schedule of the four medal events in the pool on Monday:

2012 Olympic Medal Count: China Leads All Countries With 12 Medals, 6 Gold

Day 2 of the 2012 London Olympics are completed and for the second day in a row it is China who leads all countries in the coveted medal count with 12 total medals, and they also have the most gold with six. The United States is just one medal behind China for the overall lead, but three back of their gold medal count. Both the Chinese and the United States each won five medals

Swimming is where the United States won most of their medals. Team USA won a silver medal in one of the more exciting events of the day in the men's 400m free relay, Dana Vollmer lost one of her swim caps but still set the world record in the 100m butterfly en route to a gold medal, Brendan Hansen won the bronze medal in the 100m breast stroke and Allison Schmitt won a silver medal in the women's 400m freestyle.

Here is the current top five medal count by country:

2012 Olympic Medal Count: China Leads With 6 Medals, 4 Gold

Day 1 of the 2012 London Olympic Games are over, and the only way to keep track of which country is dominating is through the medal count. China has the early lead by earning six total medals with four of them being gold. Just behind China is Italy and the United States who are currently tied with four medals.

So far the United States has won a single gold medal when Ryan Lochte easily won the 400m I.M., and if Michael Phelps had gone the same time at the U.S. Trials he would have won a silver medal; instead he finished fourth. The United States won two bronze medals in swimming with the women's 400 free relay, and the other came in the men's 400m freestyle with Peter Vanderkaay finishing third.

Two of China's four gold medals came in swimming, one in weightlifting and one in shooting, while Italy won a gold medal in fencing and their other came in archery with their last arrow to defeat the United States.

Here is the current top five medal count by country.

London Olympics 2012: Michael Phelps Loses To Ryan Lochte In 400 IM

In what may not be the most shocking of events, 16-time Olympic gold medal winner Michael Phelps went down in the 400 IM on Saturday, his first Olympic loss in eight years. Ryan Lochte was the winner and Phelps didn't even make the podium, finishing fourth.

Phelps not winning the race isn't as surprising as him finishing fourth, considering he's won the same race at the past two Olympic games. Still, Lochte's winning time of 4:05.18 was more than a second behind the mark Phelps set in Beijing. Two ways to look at that: Phelps' record was obviously special and proved to be elusive here, but it also show how far behind Phelps is from his old form.

Lochte and Phelps are widely considered the favorites to finish one and two in these Summer Games, but the 400 IM on Friday was an indicator that those projections could easily go off course.

2012 Olympics: London's Opening Ceremony Draws Best Ratings In US For Non-US Olympics

If you're an NBC executive, so far, so good for the 2012 Olympic games. Friday's Opening Ceremony drew excellent ratings in the United States. In fact, the ratings were the very best in the United States for any non-US Olympic games.

23.0/40 Overnight for Opening Ceremony on NBC best for a non-US Olympics ever;up 7% from Beijing (21.5), 28% from Athens (18.0). #Olympics

— NBCSportsPR (@NBCSportsPR) July 28, 2012

Unfortunately for us here in the United States, though, the Opening Ceremony was aired on tape delay, as NBC made certain that it was a prominent fixture in the Friday night primetime slot on each and every time zone.

It also bodes quite well for NBC that there's already such a huge interest in the Olympic games, as it's reasonable to deduce that interest in the games should be sustained over the next two weeks.

London Olympics 2012: Yi Jianlian To Carry Chinese Flag In Opening Ceremonies

Mavericks free agent center Yi Jianlian is following in Yao Ming's footsteps as the latest Chinese NBA player to carry their national flag at opening ceremonies in the Olympics. Jianlian is expected to carry the Chinese flag in the Parade of Athletes portion of Friday night's festivities, as it's been reported by multiple outlets.

#Mavs free agent forward Yi Jianlian will carry the national flag for China during the Olympic Opening Ceremonies tonight in London.

— Dwain Price (@DwainPrice) July 27, 2012

Jianlian hasn't exactly been a sensation in his time with the Mavericks and Jianlian's NBA career looks a bit bleak to understate it, but the 24-year-old is certainly key to the Chinese Olympic squad

Team USA Vs. Spain: Americans Need Tyson Chandler To Step Up Before Olympics

Team USA plays Spain on Tuesday in a match-up between what is believed to be the two best teams in international competition. The Americans enter this game without a blemish in exhibition play and it's the last game played before the real thing gets started in London.

Most recently, Team USA defeated an Argentina team led by Manu Ginobili and Luis Scola. The USA held a comfortable lead thanks to strong starts from Kevin Durant and Kobe Bryant, but they phased out a bit and narrowly got past Argentina.

The Americans will need to play a lot better for the length of the game against Spain, a team led by Pau and Marc Gasol and Thunder big Serge Ibaka.

Former Mavericks center Tyson Chandler is going to need to step up his play to give the Americans a better chance in this one, since he's their only true, experienced big on the roster.
