If We Know Anything, It's That You Can't Beat The Greeks At Basketball

Looks like The Mighty MJD won his bet. We glumly welcome you this morning with the news that Team USA lost to Greece 101-95 in the semifinals of the World Basketball Championships.

The Americans struggled with — go figure — their 3-point and free throw shooting, and Greece — which has no players in the NBA — did not. It's not the Olympics disaster, of course ... but it's not a particularly pleasant morning in the life of Mike Krzyzewski. Which we guess isn't too bad.

The U.S. will play the loser of Spain-Argentina in the bronze medal game. We're sure they'll be fired up for that one.
