Reach USA 76 Bayi 67
May 20, Pengshui, China- “And a great day was had by all” was a phrase that was common in my hometown paper and I will use it for today as it was a great day!
For starters, the guys got to “sleep in” until 10:30 am and we only had to endure a one-hour bus ride. We are staying in a great hotel and the food is out of this world.
We played real hard in today’s game and battled through some real adversity (see game recap) and came away with a 76-67 win over Bayi to even the series at 2 games apiece.
This was a smaller arena, holding only about 2000, but there was plenty of activity all over the place and after the game we had a great time posing for pictures and giving autographs.

P.S.
We have an off day tomorrow!
