In the early morning of August 9th, Beijing time, in a suspenseful Paris Olympic men's basketball semi-final, the US team achieved a big comeback in the final quarter after falling behind by as much as 17 points, and narrowly defeated Serbia 95-91, and will compete with the host France team for the championship. Facing an opponent that they had defeated twice not long ago, the US team performed poorly in this game. If it weren't for Curry's 3-pointer that hit 9 out of 14 shots, this US team with many big names would probably be blocked from the final.

In the five warm-up games before the Olympics, the US team remained undefeated, including a 26-point victory over Serbia. The two teams were in the same group, and in the group stage, the US team also won by 26 points, as if the two teams were not at the same level at all. Perhaps for this reason, the Americans underestimated their opponents, they underestimated Jokic and Bogdanovic, and they forgot that the opposing team also had several NBA stars like them, even superstars.
