USA survives test, holds on to edge Brazil
By Brian Mahoney
Associated Press Writer
ISTANBUL The United
States survived its first tough test
at the world championships, edg
ing Brazil 70-68 on Monday when
Leandro Barbosa's shot rattled
out at the buzzer.
Kevin Durant scored 27 points
and Chauncey Billups added 15 for
the Americans (3-0), who essen
tially clinched Group B with the
victory
But this was further proof that a
world title won't come easily for
this young U.S. team if it comes
at all.
After the Americans trailed

put them ahead 64-62. But they
couldn't build on the lead during a
tense final few minutes, and Brazil
had two chances to send the game
to overtime.
Following a miss by Billups,
Brazil got the ball and Marcelo
Huertas was fouled on a drive to
the basket with 3.5 seconds
remaining.
He missed the first free throw
and then the second intentionally,
tracking it down in the corner and
firing it underneath to Barbosa,
who put up a shot over Kevin
Love, only to have it bounce off the
back and front of the rim.
Barbosa finished with 14 points
after a strong start for Brazil (2-1).
Marcus Vinicius scored 16, and
Tiago Splitter had 13 while bat-

ding foul trouble in the second
half.
With NBA big men Nene,
Anderson Varejao and Splitter,
Brazil was considered one of the
teams with enough size to topple
the undersized Americans.
Nene had to pull out with an
injury and Varejao sat out again
while continuing to rest a sprained
right ankle, so the Brazilians
turned to a speed game to lead for
much of the game.
They just couldn't finish the
upset, leaving the Americans
needing only a victory over Iran or
Tunisia, the bottom two teams in
Group B, or another Brazil loss to

group and three full days off

The Americans have plenty to
work on before worrying about
that, after needing a huge night
from Durant and 31 minutes from
Billups, the old man of the team at
33, to pull this one out.
The U.S. team has none of its
2008 Olympic gold medalists back,
and nowhere was it more appar
ent than in the matchup with
Barbosa. When the countries last
met, in their 2007 Olympic qualifi
er game, Barbosa entered as the
tournament's leading scorer
before Kobe Bryant led a defen
sive effort that held Barbosa to
just four points on 1-of-7 shooting
in an easy U.S. victory.
There's no defenders like
Bryant here, and Barbosa took

advantage in the first quarter by
making two 3-pointers and scoring
eight points.
Brazil made 12 of its first 16
shots in the period and its first
four 3-pointers, streaks that were
snapped when Barbosa was just
short on a halfcourt heave at the
buzzer, leaving them with a 28-22
lead.
Brazil extended its lead to eight
early in the second quarter and
was still up seven midway through
the period, but with Splitter on the
bench with two fouls, and Barbosa
and Alex Garcia joining him, the
Americans cut it to one a couple of
times.
Splitter's dunk sent the
Brazilians to the half with a 46-43
advantage.
