SOUNDBITE (English) Mike Krzyzewski, Head Coach of USA basketball team: (About Argentina)
"Well, I've ultimate respect for them, you know, they play, first of all they are really good, they are amazing way when they are together, their brotherhood, they've been together for a long time and they play the game in a beautiful fashion, because they play technically well, but then they add their spirit and teamwork to it, which takes what they do technically to another level."
SOUNDBITE (English) Kevin Durant, forward of USA basketball Olympic team:
"I think, against Australia, you know, was a grind out game, but against Serbia and France I think we came out with a great energy, but as a game we know we kind of let it up a bit, so we take that energy that we had to start those last two games, I think we'll be in good shape, so I guess is about us, we still not had to go over what these guys do, you know, schemes and all that stuff, but at the end of the day it comes down to us, if do we wanna win, all we gonna do is what it takes to win and I think this is the question all of us is going to say yes to."
SOUNDBITE (English) Kevin Durant, forward of USA basketball Olympic team:
"There's nothing to panic over, we've got to be ready to play tomorrow, whatever we did before, those games don't matter, so if we had came out and played extremely well, won every game by forty points, you know, we are not going to look back on it going to this other round, so we got to move forward, we got a game tomorrow, we got another opportunity for us to showcase what we can do and got to go out there and play a good game."
