2012 Olympic Games

    Hodge made difference today.


    I'm happy that China played better than WGP. Now time for Korea :super:

    What a match! One of the best in this olympics! Hodge was amazing. She provided the much-needed firepower missing in Larson. Scott-arruda played well. Tom was lethal as usual with her serves. Basically, everyone in the team was good. This team cements their place as the winners with each passing match. although China lost, they fought well. They proved that they are favorites for the medal. Zeng Chun Lei was the hero of this team.


    Pool B games are so thrilling to watch in contrast to Pool a! If it were not for Russia, I wouldn't care much with what's happening there. Hopefully, there'll be more exciting games! :thumbup:

    Quote from Mapuan

    this is the biggest problem of china, they crack under pressure.


    incredible offensive showing from hodge. horrible receiving though. :lol:


    Horrible? Really? :whistle:


    She had some shanks but majority of the match she received pretty well.

    "[size=8]It's years and years of work and sacrifice and dedication. Along with a lot of these girls, we've sweat and we've bled and we've cried together in past Olympics. It just brought tears to my eyes, & I'm more than thrilled. This will be forever." -LOGAN MAILE LEI TOM (Silver Medallist - 2008 Beijing & 2012 London Olympic Games, 2011 World Cup runner up, 2003 & 2007 World Cup 3rd place, 2002 World Champs runner up, 4-time World GrandPrix Champs)

    Will we see Hodge in the next match vs Serbia? Larson?


    Scott-Arruda or Harmotto?

    Hugh is rather conservative so I think that he won't change anything in starting six, I expect no changes ^^

    Congratulations to the USA!!!! :drink:
    It's the best match so far! very entertaining!! :obey:
    China lost 0-3, but from what they have done, they should be very proud of it. I really hope China be in the next round.


    Hooker&Hodge = MVP sisters
    Berg ... She used the middles much more than last match, which made more variety in attack.
    Hugh ... I love your substitution! Though I really like Larson, but replacing her with Hodge, another scoring machine, cause China need to be worried more on both Hooker and Hodge, right choice!!!
    Logan ... well, her reception in this match was probably her worst in year, a bit loss confident also. But all the other all around skills still worked properly. Attack was ok. Serving was good causing so many problem to China, help running a lot of consecutive point to USA. She still contribute a lot in this match. :heart:


    But again, it really a team effort by the USA. By watching the match, you can say they really play for each other. :thumbsup:
