      Wait, so according to the commentators, Team GB don't peak between Olympic games? Not even for the World Champs?<br><br>
      That sounds kind of... strange.

        Don't like the idea of playing off for 5th place? <br><br>
        Winning more games earlier might help...

          Watching Japan v Aus in womens basketball and the Japanese are really taking it to the Aussies. End of the 3rd quarter and they are up by 14.<br>
          The Japanese point guard No. 13 is having a hell of a game and she's absolutely tiny but her passing is amazing.<br>
          Reminds me of a female version of Fumi Tanaka.<br>
          Go the Japs!!!

            <p>why have the Anthems of the teams before the 7s?</p>
            <p> </p>
            <p>Do they do that in other sports where teams play off for the gold?</p>
