Team USA wins 5th straight men's basketball gold (www.espn.com)

The indelible moment came from Steph Curry, who made four uber clutch 3-pointers in a two-minute second stretch of the fourth quarter to turn away a French uprising. Curry assured his first gold with a ridiculous fall away bomb, silencing the home fans with his "put them to sleep" trademark move.

That was an incredible ending. Final score was 98-87, USA.

This is "accidental renaissance" level. That's an amazing shot; by Steph and the photographer!

We re-watched the last quarter of the game against Serbia then this one. It was an amazing show of team-work. Then Curry stepped in (again) and put the rocket-boosters on.
