By Steve Keating RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - The U.S. men's basketball team closed out pool play with an unbeaten record but a nervy 100-97 win over France on Sunday confirmed that getting to the top step of the Olympic podium will not be an easy climb. "Personally I felt we were going to dominate these games that they were going to come easy," American guard Paul George told reporters. "But you start playing better competition, you see these teams are pretty good." After a pair of blowout wins over China and Venezuela to open the tournament, the United States have received a wake-up call in the way of narrow three-point wins over France and Serbia and a battling 10-point victory against Australia.
