USA Takes Gold at FIBA Americas 2007
The U.S. team never took its foot off the gas pedal, dominating a tough Argentina squad for the second time in four
days to take home the gold medal at the 2007 FIBA Americas Championship on Sunday. The 118-81 triumph was never in question
thanks to 31 points from LeBron James, who shot an impressive 11-for-15 from the field,
including a sparkling 8-for-11 from behind the arc. Dwight Howard hit all seven of his shot attempts en route to 20
points, and Carmelo Anthony wrapped added 16. MVP Luis Scola, who also made Jeff Dengate's All-Tournament Team, led Argentina
with 23. Both teams had already secured spots in the 2008 Olympics on Saturday.
Earlier on Sunday, Puerto Rico took down
short-handed Brazil 111-107 to earn the bronze. Elias Ayuso pumped in 39 points on 12-for-20 shooting, Carlos Arroyo added
30 and 10 assists, and Angelo Reyes had 15 points and 15 rebounds. Marcelinho Machado's 21 points led Brazil. Source:
