MANILA, Philippines — It was human nature to want to focus on a disappointing loss to Lithuania on Monday but Team USA had no time for it.

The FIBA World Cup has reached its final phase, the knockout round. Despite the stinging 110-104 defeat Sunday, the Americans made it there.

The defending world champs, Spain, didn't. Olympic silver medalist France didn't. Olympic bronze medalist Australia didn't, either.

Canada, the oddsmakers pick as the greatest challenge to the U.S. in the tournament, advanced only after a fourth-quarter comeback Sunday.
