United States rolled to a 112-69 victory over Venezuela on Wednesday night in its opening game of the FIBA Americas tournament. Four All-Stars fired perfect passes to each other, ending when Kobe Bryant turned LeBron James’ behind-the-back toss into a dunk that brought the loudest cheer of the night. Just like that, the Americans had shown a glimpse of what they think U.S. basketball can look like again. “The tournament’s going to get a lot harder than we had tonight, but as a team I think we played well,” James said. “We shared the ball well. We did everything that we needed to do to win a basketball game.”
