Greece 101, United States 95
Greece Shocks U.S. Basketball Team

SAITAMA, Japan (AP) -- Fed up with its recent failures, the United States assembled a new program with new plan. The end result was all too familiar. Greece used a sizzling stretch of shooting across the middle two quarters to turn a 12-point deficit into a 14-point lead, and they beat the Americans 101-95 Friday in the semifinals of the world championships.

International officiating doesn't hurt. Do they hate the US or what?

Must have been the $15 shoes ...
