They earned the right to celebrate.
The early rounds may not have been as pretty as some wanted to see, but in the end, the USA defense cranked up the pressure, they moved the ball on offense, they knocked down threes — Hello Kevin Durant — and the USA ran away to the gold.
So the celebration was on.
Red, white, and ball so hard.
