Team USA expects to win gold at the 2024 Summer Olympics. However, they are trailing Serbia 54-43 at halftime. There is still time for Team USA to finish their comeback, but this game did not go as planned.
Regardless of the final conclusion, the USA has had a disappointing first half. The team is simply not living up to expectations. To win this game, they’ll need someone to step up and take leadership in the second half. It might be LeBron James, or it may be someone else who finds their groove.
In either case, Team USA must act quickly to resolve the situation. Anything less than a gold medal will be seen as a failure by this team. Furthermore, this may be LeBron’s final opportunity to compete in the Olympics. A loss would be completely disastrous for the team.

If only Team USA had a 6’10” two-way wing who could maybe keep up with the shooters on Serbia sitting on the bench right now pic.twitter.com/bB0g1GXe4W

“If only Team USA had a 6’10” two-way wing who could possibly keep up with the shooters on Serbia’s bench right now,” one fan remarked.
“Is Serbia outperforming the United States in sports?””I’ll always be there,” another fan commented.
“USA, why are you losing to Serbia tho,” a third admirer wrote.
“If the USA Basketball Team loses to Serbia, we as a nation will need to have a discussion about what went wrong…” said a fourth supporter.
Again, the game has not ended as of the time of writing. Team USA still has a chance to recover and win the competition. To overcome the current gap, a comprehensive team effort will be required.
Will the USA come back to win the game?
