Chris Carrawell
and Brendan Haywood both had nice games as the US defeated Lithuania, no
easy task, and now only Greece stands in the way. Cwell had 10 points, 3 boards,
2 assists, no turnovers and one block in 18 minutes. Big Brendan had 8 points, 7
boards, 2 turnovers and 1 steal, also in 18 minutes. Unfortunately, by the
stats, his aggression went the wrong way as he picked up 5 fouls and only had 2
foul shots.
Purnell says Greece is a tough, physical team, but are they better than
Lithuania? They're always pretty tough. Plus they had those way cool
uniforms. Not Alexander Julian, but hard to go wrong with the Dead!
