00:00The updated medal count over in Paris for the Summer Games. As of this Tuesday morning,
00:09the United States starting to pull away and lengthen its lead. 79 total medals, 21 golds
00:15matching China at this moment for the most gold medals awarded so far at the Paris Games.
00:21But a 26 medal advantage for the United States. Some big action on this Tuesday, including
00:28quarterfinal action in men's basketball. The United States will take on Brazil at 3.30pm
00:34Eastern Time. Here's Stateside for a spot in the semi-final. Already one game underway.
00:40Germany winning by double digits, knocking out Greece, Sinanis and Ndugunbo.
00:44Yeah, so we are going to get to see some knockout stage action. The pressure ramps up here.
00:49The defense will be much, much better and we're still looking for a big performance
00:52out of Team USA because again, you're looking at these spreads. We're not getting the 5.5s,
00:56the 4.5s and the 3.5s. We're looking at closer to 20s, 25s and 30s here. I expect a big win
01:02for Team USA, but today even just in the Olympics itself, I'm waiting for, I assume the 200
01:06runs again today with Noah Lyles. That's the guy I'm watching for the rest of us, man.
01:10Love the kid out here. Love the dominance so far. And to hear that his best event is
01:15the 200, that's going to be fun to watch it, man. Can you imagine being that fast, man?
01:18Win a 100 and a 200 gold medal at the Olympics? Well, that's a big stage. That's a big paycheck
01:23if he gets that done.
