My expert analysis: not the best start to the second half for the Lithuanians.

If the Team USA B team wins every game by 20 or more this tournament, I hope the press stop trying to talk up other teams for a few international tournaments.

Lithuania, probably followed by Serbia/Croatia. In Lithuania, basketball is more popular than futbol, which no other country but USA can say. It's a good question. Lithuania only has 3 million people but has 5 medals in international competition since independence in 91.

Philippines and Lithuania are the countries where basketball is the #1 sport. (See Pacific Rims and The Other Dream Team) It's fairly popular throughout Europe as well, at least to the point where you can make a multimillion Euro salary playing for top Euroleague teams.

From what I understand basketball is very popular in China, but specifically the NBA not local flavor.

Playing basketball is sort of popular for teens in France, but that's about it. No one really follows any league or player. Most people in the country know what the sport is, and who Tony Parker and Michael Jordan are. That's it.

(so far) America has at least one starter that might not make the team if everyone is playing. That starter would still make every other team in the world if he was their nationality.

Man, Lithuania looked pretty scummy that game, but maybe that's just nationalism talking. And these international basketball media recommendations have been great, keep em coming if you have more.
