LAS VEGAS (2007 FIBA Americas Championship) - Argentina has streaked to a 5-0 record in the FIBA Americas 2007 Championship, upending Canada 85-70 in the second game of the day at the Thomas & Mack Centre.

The Argentines led the entire way and Canada's cold shooting to start (25 per cent from the field in the first half) never allowed them to truly get into the game.

The Canadians managed just eight points in both the first and second quarters, trailing 46-16 at the half.

Luis Scola scored a game-high 23 points for Argentina, while teammate Roman Gonzalez added an 11-point, 11-rebound effort in the victory.

Samuel Dalembert grabbed 16 rebounds and added nine points for Canada in the loss.
