The Rio Olympics have been exciting so far, and today should be no different. With USA and two Nuggets competing, how couldn’t we do a preview?
In day 3 of these Rio Olympics, Group B will have three match ups:
- USA vs Venezuela
- Serbia vs Australia
- France vs China
The USA has already showed off their dominance as they CRUSHED China by 57. They were joined by Serbia and Australia who also won their first preliminary round game.
The top half of the group has been completely dominate with all three wins coming by over 20 points. Serbia, who is led by Nugget Nikola Jokic, could prove to be a vocal point of the Serbian offense which hope to give Team USA a challenge. With Serbia and Australia being the only two teams to give Team USA a potential run, the Rio Olympics would love to see a tight match up with Team USA.
Both USA teams haves kicked off this tournament by unleashing their superstar power.

The Americans are the strong favorites in group B. Most believe that his squad in completely unbeatable as they are led by superstars Kevin Durant and Paul George. Australia could be the only hope in Group B to give them a chance, but ultimately it is hard to see anyone beating such a dominate squad.
