The U.S. men's basketball team beat down Australia 116-85 Thursday to move to the Olympic semifinals, where they'll play defending champion Argentina for the right to play in the gold medal against either Lithuania or Spain.
The game against the Aussies was a marked contrast to the close 87-76 USA win during their Olympic warm-up tour, as the Americans served notice that they're not taking anything for granted at these Olympic games.
