competition as they were defeated against France with a score of 83 76 in a game that for many is the best they have seen in many many years The low performance of Kevin Durant the current so called best player in the world was key in this game He only scored 10 points in 20 minutes on the field < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > Then the United States unleashed all its fury and the excellent game against Iran a team that as they say paid for the US in a game that ended by almost 60 points 120 66 < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph > Why Bet on the Czech Republic +1529 < wpparagraph > < wpparagraph >
