Schedule for US Olympic Basketball Team

So I sort of got sucked into the NBA action when I watched former Jayhawk star Paul Pierce lead the Celtics to a NBA championship. Ironically, while Pierce outplayed Kobe Bryant and earned the MVP nod for the NBA finals, he's not on the US Olympic team. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to getting a hoops fix in the days ahead before I gear up for NCAA ball in a couple months.

DIME has the schedule for the US Olympic basketball games. First one is on Sunday at 10:15 in the morning Eastern time...which means I may be able to catch most of it after Aidan's early wake up call ("Daaaady, Daaaaady!) and before church. Here are game times:

Sunday August 10th, 10:15 AM EST
Team USA vs. China
Live on NBC

Tuesday August 12th, 8 AM EST
Team USA vs. Angola
Live on the USA Network at 8 AM

Thursday August 14th, 8 AM EST
Team USA vs. Greece
Live on the USA Network

Saturday August 16th, 10:15 AM EST
Team USA vs. Spain
Live on NBC

Monday August 18th, 8 AM EST
Team USA vs. Germany
Live on the USA Network

Quarterfinals will be at undetermined times on August 20. Semifinals August 22, and the championship on August 24.

    Thanks for the basketball schedule. All the other places I found showed who played but not the network or who and when but not where. Yours was complete and the only one I found that was done in a logical manner.
