Basketball Women's Preliminary Round Group A - United States Czech Republic Full Replay from the Basketball Arena at the London 2012 Olympic Games. -- 3 August 2012
Basketball made its appearance at the Olympic Games in 1904 in St Louis as a demonstration sport, as the competition was held between only American teams and counted as an event of the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU of the USA) Championships.
At the Games in 1936 in Berlin, basketball joined the Olympic programme, where it has remained to this day. Women's basketball debuted at the 1976 Games in Montreal.

women's basketball is just as exciting as men. these girls are incredible

USA is the best basketball team the country that made my favourite sport basketball

[@horaciovazquez2984]

McCoughtry la mitad del tiempo mete goles , la otra mitad está en el suelo .

La checa número 9 es insoportable , con el brazo levantado , esa manía tan estúpida , lo único que hace es picar la pelota .

Lot more exciting than watching men's basketball. There's more cooperation, communicating, and the way they move is much smoother yet versatile than men.

Is it just me or do the players seem to argue with the referees? Sue Bird did it a lot.

[@Brizzle2314]

Lol why would you not start Parker? Should of been Bird, Taurausi, Moore, Parker and Catchings

these women are hard workers just like the men. they work hard and practice everyday. dont be bias to women. were both human.

Kayle Matthews no ones being biased. they have the right to play just like men do. You just cant blame people for not wanting to watch women play sports. its called freedom isn't it?

[@horaciovazquez2984]

La checa número 6 es de lo peor ; lo único que hace es levantar el brazo .

[@iLuvAkeys4ever]

I agree I think that the stars were Lindsay Whalen and Angel McCoughtry and that Maya Moore and Sue Bird who had the most playing time actually played really poorly and actually had a bad tournament. All Maya did the whole time was foul and nearly fouled out in one game! I don't actually think Geno is a good coach as he always put on the weaker team instead of the strongest and was criticised many times by the commentators of the games. Lyndsay was the best PG but he kept putting on Sue Bird

[@pcbingemaster]

why don't they dribble any bit like men's division do?

[@nouahlevi]

because they aren't men ...

[@iLuvAkeys4ever]

You obviously don't watch womens basketball. If you did you would hear professional male basketball players people who have played or still play in the NBA say that they have lost something and could learn a lot from womens basketball. The women are just as athletic as the men watch the USA v Turkey or USA v Canada to see just how athletic and talented they are. Obama was asked if Kobe and Lebron's Dream team would beat Magic, Bird and Jordans he said NO as not talented enough, somethings lost

how would you defend a woman in the nba in the right way when she doesnt have the ball cause you should be able to put one hand with the extended arm in the offensive player's chest that would look weird

[@seth8556]

NO Bryant, no Wade, no Howard ,no Durant,no Lebron, no Griffin...

[@salvadorperez8537]

Angel is thru being a backup new star needs minutes,plays for her

[@iLuvAkeys4ever]

You obviously never go to womens basketball matches cos the stands are normally full and do you know why that is, well, most professionals will tell you that if you want to watch a real game of basketball you have to watch the womens game as the mens game is no longer real basketball, dunking takes less skill and so a lot of artistry is lost where as the womens game takes more team work and skill to make a shot. If you don't believe me look it up on the internet.

[@MK0437]

The men's game is defnitely real basketball. I agree that women's basketball is popular and good but don't diss the men's game. Men are very athletic and skilled and they do a lot more than dunk. Some of the best athletes in the world and the best team does win.

[@lix00sss]

She wasn't "asked". She wouldn't make it anyway.

[@kayshostuff]

Women is no different then men..the only difference is dunking..and even some women can dunk now so..

[@lv00859]

Sue Bird,Maya Moore and Turasi got wayyyyyy to much run in ths tournament. Parker, Whalen, Augustas, Catchings and Mccoughtry should have been the starting 5. Auriemma sucks!!

lol did someone on here say that Griner was asked to play in the NBA... wtf are you smoking?? and someone also said the girls are just as athletic as the guys? sorry, don't want to be sexist, but they aren't... these girls would whip up on high school guys teams most likely, and smaller ncaa colleges like bad division 3 teams... sorry i actually saw our division 3 men's team scrimmage a local d1 girls team and the guys won by 50+ just messing around... explain to me if girls are just as athletic, then why is it a big deal when a 6'8" girl with a standing reach of 8'4" dunks? and nothing is thought of when a 6'0" guy with a standing reach of 7'4" dunks lol... sorry women, don't mean to offend... just saying

[@ranhill62]

If you want to debate women vs men athletes, all you have to do is look at track & field, the purest of all sports (nothing but running, jumping, and throwing.) They train the same, have the same running, throwing, and jumping techniques. Put them side by side in the same event and the men will always beat the women. Now, take one of these elite women an place her next to the average guy and 8.5 times outta 10 she would win. But take the #1 ranked woman and man, then line them up against each other in a race, long jump, or shot put event... no contest.

[@franknorman1700]

Oh yes and jack daniels mens basketball is not all about dunking. And it is real basketball, and every single thing they do, aswell as the women, is art. Dunking is an art. But your version of art is team work and passing. Mens basketball has a player named rajon rondo, who for the past four nba seasons has averaged 11.1 assists per game. If thats not art, you dont know what art is.

[@MK0437]

Point is don't defend against bigoted views with bigoted views.

[@solineyasar4296]

moi aussi je fais du basket mais en u11elite

[@franknorman1700]

Kayla i believe there is a difference. Im not trying to be sexist but the men play a more athletic fast game than the women. So by you saying dunking is the only thing deiiferent your a technically wrong. Because if women basketball was the same why are there no female nba players.

[@ranhill]

Kevin Richard they actually practice against men who have played college ball, because there aren't enough women who can compete on that level. I would love to see you go up against one of these women. Not saying you would lose, but it wouldn't be as easy as you think.

[@kevinrichard5651]

***** I hava no doubt that I couldnt beat a wnba player 1 on 1 but look up videos of ben simmons or jahlil okafor in high school and try to tell me that they would even score a point against them.
