NBC PRIMETIME HIGHLIGHTS:
The world's top two decathletes, the Czech Republic's Roman Sebrle and America's Bryan Clay, who finished 1-2 in Athens, may be competing head-to-head once more to determine who is the "World's Greatest Athlete" as the decathlon concludes with five events on Day 2. Gold medals are also at stake in the women's 5000m, the women's long jump, and the men's pole vault.
The final diving competition of the Beijing Olympics, the men's 10m platform, is perhaps the most wide open. As usual, China is expected to field two strong contenders, but this event has been a relative weak spot for the host country in recent years. American teens and training partners David Boudia (who performs among the most difficult sets of dives in the world) and Thomas Finchum give Team USA two legitimate contenders. Russia's Gleb Gelperin is the reigning world champion. And look for emerging British sensation Tom Daley, competing in his first Olympics at age 14.
NBC DAYTIME HIGHLIGHTS:
Four years ago in Athens, the unthinkable happened: Team USA failed to advance to the men's basketball final, falling to eventual champion Argentina and it's pay back time as they meet again. In today's live semifinal, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant look to lead the "Redeem Team" back to the gold medal game.
NBC LATENIGHT HIGHLIGHTS:
