While the win is impressive, Greece didn’t have Giannis Antetokounmpo who is not participating, and these are games that the team is expected to win. One fan kept it simple when pointing that out.
Easy wins.

Team USA was impressive throughout, shooting 57.4% from the field and 40.9% from the three-point line as a unit, which is a good sign for the tougher games to come in the knockout stages of the competition.
What Comes Next For Team USA?
Having beaten New Zealand by 27 points in their first game and Greece by 28 points in the second, Team USA will play their final group stage game against winless Jordan.
They have four points to their name and are all but certain to qualify for the knockout stages of the competition. The game against Jordan will take place on Wednesday, August 30th, and is a game they should easily win.
Team USA is expected to bring home the World Cup, and with the way they are clicking, it’s hard to see which team will stop them. The team is on a roll, and the vibes around them seem immaculate.
