Olympics: Women's Basketball, four for history

Lisa Leslie and Teresa Edwards put themselves into Olympic history books for being the only two women in Olympic Basketball to win four gold medals The U.S. team has a depth few teams possess. They are clearly communicating with each other on the court all the time, and have each other's backs.

Candace Parker, who earned 8 of the 10 American points in the second quarter said,  "We weren't going to be the team to let Lisa lose. We wouldn't let her Olympic career end that way."

And they didn't. That's teamwork at it's best. On the court, off the court, playing to win, giving their best to give another player their moment in history.
