Team USA Basketball advanced to the semifinals of the London Games with a 119-86 victory over Australia. Kobe Bryant dropped six consecutive three-pointers in the second half to seal the victory after a close third quarter. LeBron James notched his first Olympic triple-double with 11 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists.
