00:00Team USA, both men's and women's coming away with the gold medal here.
00:07Now, from a men's perspective, yeah, we anticipate it, but we thought they might get some fights
00:11along the way.
00:12The question was always, what sort of fight were we going to get from the women's side
00:15of the competition?
00:16We were asking just about every guest, Miles, coming on, saying, do you think anybody is
00:20going to be able to stay at least in that single-digit range of Team USA?
00:25And you take a look at beating Japan, beating Belgium, Germany, and Nigeria, along with
00:29Australia easily, and they got up to France.
00:31Before we get to the final game against France, coming into the Olympics, for you, Miles,
00:35the expectations for Team USA, we know it was gold medal, but what were you anticipating
00:39before the team actually played a game in Paris?
00:42I was thinking it was going to be most of what we saw in that tournament run.
00:47The world, I think, is getting closer, is catching up a bit, and there's so much W talent
00:52that's spread around the world now, but you're still looking at this Team USA roster, which
00:57is the best of the best, which took on Team WNBA at the All-Star game before they left
01:03U.S. soil.
01:04So they got pushed there.
01:05They lost that game, but that's still how much of a gulf there is between this USA roster
01:12put together and the rest of the world.
01:14But wow, that final was something else.
01:16And I think that that's what happens when you go to the host country and you're playing
01:20a road game in something that should feel like a neutral site, is anything can happen.
