The U.S. men's Olympic basketball team beat Nigeria on Thursday night, an epic blowout that answered the Americans' detractors and sent a clear message to let them be.



The United States scored an Olympic record  156-73 as they routed the thoroughly overwhelmed Nigeria to remain unbeaten at the London Games.

In spite of the fact we got blown all the way out by the US, the play of the game went to Nigeria’s Anthony Skinn who can hold his head up with pride knowing he crossed over James Harden causing him to break his ankle.

I guess Nigeria should spend more time practicing basketball and less time scamming people. They have definitely won the Gold in the scam and ripoff game for years.

I think our boys did put up a good fight. Before we criticise them, let's consider how much is invested into basketball in Naija.
