sporting adversary reached its peak during the <a href="/wiki/Cold_war" class="mw-redirect" title="Cold war">Cold war</a>. The U.S. men's team was considered a favorite in the run-up to the 1972 Games. Since the first Olympic basketball tournament at the <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1936_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1936 Summer Olympics">1936 Olympics</a> in <a href="/wiki/Berlin" title="Berlin">Berlin</a>, the Americans have not lost a single game, winning seven consecutive gold medals in a dominating fashion. Their record reached an unprecedented 63-0 before the final game. Since the <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1952_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1952 Summer Olympics">1952 tournament</a> the Soviet team challenged the Americans, winning silver in 1952, <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1956_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1956 Summer Olympics">1956</a>, <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1960_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1960 Summer Olympics">1960</a>, <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1964_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1964 Summer Olympics">1964</a> and bronze in <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1968_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1968 Summer Olympics">1968</a>. Outside of the Olympics, the Soviets had already defeated the U.S. team in the <a href="/wiki/FIBA_World_Cup" class="mw-redirect" title="FIBA World Cup">World Championship</a> play. However, the Americans never sent their best collegiate players to that tournament. </p><p>The Olympics strictly prohibited any involvement of professional athletes at the time. The Soviet Union and other <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Bloc" title="Eastern Bloc">Eastern Bloc</a> countries used that rule to their advantage, listing all its top players as soldiers or workers what allowed them to breach the amateur rules. Western experts classified these athletes as professionals.<sup id="cite_ref-a1972_46-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-a1972-46"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On the other hand, leading American players were unable to play in the Olympics as they were officially professional and played in the <a href="/wiki/National_Basketball_Association" title="National Basketball Association">NBA</a>. That disadvantage had not prevented the Americans from winning the first seven Olympic basketball tournaments without a single defeat. </p><p>The confrontation of the Soviet Union and United States on the <a href="/wiki/Basketball_court" title="Basketball court">basketball court</a> was deeply connected to the confrontation on the political front. Many American viewers assumed that 1972 Games were openly <a href="/wiki/Anti-Americanism" title="Anti-Americanism">anti-American</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-espn1_47-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-espn1-47"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>47<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> There were rumors that the <a href="/wiki/Communist_Party_of_the_Soviet_Union" title="Communist Party of the Soviet Union">Communist party</a> had bribed the officials because they wanted the USSR to win 50 gold medals at these Olympics in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Soviet Union.<sup id="cite_ref-joursport1_48-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-joursport1-48"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/1972_United_States_men%27s_Olympic_basketball_team" title="1972 United States men's Olympic basketball team">United States team</a> was the youngest in history. American players usually participated in the Olympics once before turning pro, and the U.S. team always had new players every four years. The 1972 team did not have a clear leader. A rising star <a href="/wiki/Bill_Walton" title="Bill Walton">Bill Walton</a> declined an invitation to participate. Nevertheless, the team was heavily favored featuring such players as <a href="/wiki/Doug_Collins_(basketball)" title="Doug Collins (basketball)">Doug Collins</a> or <a href="/wiki/Tommy_Burleson" title="Tommy Burleson">Tommy Burleson</a> (the tallest player among all teams). </p><p>The young American team was confronted by a veteran Soviet team, featuring stars <a href="/wiki/Sergei_Belov" title="Sergei Belov">Sergei Belov</a>, <a href="/wiki/Modestas_Paulauskas" title="Modestas Paulauskas">Modestas Paulauskas</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Alexander_Belov" title="Alexander Belov">Alexander Belov</a>. The players had played together for more than seven years. For <a href="/wiki/Gennadi_Volnov" title="Gennadi Volnov">Gennadi Volnov</a> it was the fourth Olympic appearance. </p><p>The Soviets performed strongly at the beginning, winning the first half 26:21. The Soviets kept the Americans 4–8 points behind during the first half. </p><p>In the second half Soviets targeted <a href="/wiki/Dwight_Jones_(basketball)" title="Dwight Jones (basketball)">Dwight Jones</a>, as they considered him the leader of the U.S. team. On the 28th minute he was provoked by <a href="/wiki/Mikheil_Korkia" title="Mikheil Korkia">Mikheil Korkia</a> and responded. Both players were sent off. The Soviets were satisfied, as they deemed Korkia less significant for them than Jones for the Americans. The next minute Alexander Belov hit <a href="/wiki/Jim_Brewer_(basketball)" title="Jim Brewer (basketball)">Jim Brewer</a> during the free-throw, and Brewer was unable to continue playing. According to the Americans, the referees did not notice the foul. </p><p>With 10 minutes left, the Soviets increased their lead to 10 points. After that Americans finally started to press the Soviets. It helped them to cut the deficit to 1 point. Soviet players started to feel nervous. With less than a minute left, <a href="/wiki/Doug_Collins_(basketball)" title="Doug Collins (basketball)">Doug Collins</a> stole a Soviet pass at halfcourt and was fouled hard by <a href="/wiki/Zurab_Sakandelidze" title="Zurab Sakandelidze">Zurab Sakandelidze</a> as he drove toward the basket, being knocked down into the basket stanchion. With three seconds remaining on the game clock, Collins was awarded two free throws and sank the first to tie the score at 49. Just as Collins lifted the ball to begin his shooting motion in attempting the second free throw, the horn from the scorer's table sounded, marking the beginning of a chain of events that left the game's final three seconds mired in controversy. Although the unexpected sound of the horn caused lead referee <a href="/wiki/Renato_Righetto" title="Renato Righetto">Renato Righetto</a> to turn away from the free throw attempt and look over to the scorer's table, play was not stopped. Collins never broke his shooting motion and continued with his second free throw, scoring to put the U.S. ahead by a score of 50:49. Immediately following Collins' free throws, the Soviets inbounded the ball and failed to score. Soviet coaches claimed that they had requested a timeout before Collins' foul shots. The referees ordered the clock reset to three seconds and the game's final seconds replayed. The horn sounded as a length-of-the-court Soviet pass was being released from the inbounding player, the pass missed its mark, and the American players began celebrating. Nevertheless, final three seconds were replayed for a third time. This time, the Soviets' <a href="/wiki/Alexander_Belov" title="Alexander Belov">Alexander Belov</a> and the USA's <a href="/wiki/Kevin_Joyce_(basketball)" title="Kevin Joyce (basketball)">Kevin Joyce</a> and <a href="/wiki/James_Forbes_(basketball)" title="James Forbes (basketball)">Jim Forbes</a> went up for the pass, and Belov caught the long pass from Ivan Edeshko near the American basket. Belov then laid the ball in for the winning points as the buzzer sounded. </p><p>The Americans regained the basketball crown in <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1976_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1976 Summer Olympics">1976</a>, but their ability to stay competitive with college players against seasoned professionals from the Soviet Union was decreasing. In <a href="/wiki/Basketball_at_the_1988_Summer_Olympics" title="Basketball at the 1988 Summer Olympics">1988</a>, the Soviets beat the United States once again, eliminating them in the semifinals. That game was a turning point in international basketball, as <a href="/wiki/FIBA" title="FIBA">FIBA</a> officials concluded that amateur rules were unfair.
