Marbury blew up, scoring 31, which set a US Olympic record. Boozer was key in the fourth after Lamar Odom fouled out. The game got pretty ugly towards the end, and the Spanish coach got mad at Larry Brown over a timeout mix up. Apparently the international rules for TOs are that you have to request one in advance, and then at the next stoppage it is assessed. A lot of time ticked off between the request and the actual TO, and Spain thought the US was rubbing it in.
