Jose Calderon, suffering from a strained adductor muscle, is not expected to play in the gold medal game against the United States.

Officials from the Raptors are consulting with Spanish doctors to discover the severity of the injury, treatment options and a prognosis.

The injury is not believed to be too serious to keep him from missing training camp with the Raptors.

"He has a problem in one of his legs," was how coach Aito Garcia Reneses described the injury.

Raptors star guard Jose Calderon will miss Spain's semi final game against Lithuania today after an MRI exam revealed a partial tear of the adductor muscle, the Toronto Star is reporting.

Toronto officials are following up with Spanish doctors to discover the severity of the injury, treatment options and a prognosis.

The winner of the game will play off for the gold medal against the winner of the United States-Argentina game.

A strained adductor muscle could keep Raptors' point guard Jose Calderon out of Spain's quarterfinal match against Lithuania on Friday, according to SportsNet.

"With respect to myself, my only concern is the small pull that I felt in the groin almost at the end of the game," Calderon said on his web site. "I feel a little soreness in the affected area, but until tomorrow I will not know the extent of the possible injury. We will have to wait a few hours to see how is the injury evolving, and depending on the results, we will know if I can play (Friday) or not."

Calderon was expected to undergo further treatment on Thursday.

Raptors' point guard Jose Calderon will undergo an MRI scan for his strained adductor muscle on Thursday, according to a report by Matthew Sekeres of the Globe and Mail.

Calderon says he is fine and that the scan is precautionary and that he has spoken to Raptors' GM Bryan Colangelo.  Calderon is representing Spain in the Olympics and will play against Lithuania tomorrow for a chance to play off for the gold medal.

?He also assured me that he would not put himself in a situation that would jeopardize his injury situation,? Colangelo said.

After the first three quarter-finals resulted in blowouts, Greece and Argentina provided the best game of the Olympics.

With the game tight all night, both sides were able to come up with clutch play after clutch play, and it was ironic that this game would come down to the very last shot before deciding the winner.

Former Rocket Vasileios Spanoulis could not connect from distance with three seconds to go, giving Argentina the two point win and a showdown with the United States for a chance to play in the gold medal game.

Carlos Delfino showed NBA teams what they'll miss with an amazing array of clutch shots in pressure situations to finish with 23 points (5-8 3pt, 4-6 fg), while the Spurs' Manu Ginoboli was equally amazing, coming up big whenever his team needed a big play to end the game with 24 points (6-13 3pt, 2-4 fg).

A key block with 3:44 remaining in the game by Ginobili on what seemed to be a certain two points for Greece could have changed the result.  Argentina led by one point at the time.

Greece led by a single point at both quarter time and half time, Argentina led by a single point after three quarters, before taking the game by two points.

Both teams shot amazing from long distance, with Argentina finishing the game at 44% (14/32), while Greece finished at 42% (8/19).  The fact that most attempts were under pressure and at crucial times makes the percentages even more impressive.

Greece were led by Antonios Fotsis, who made some big three point baskets on his way to 17 points and 10 rebounds.

Spain, led by Pau Gasol, were able to overpower the youthful Croatians 72-59 to advance to the next round in the Olympics.

Gasol finished the game with 20 points and 10 rebounds, as the Spainards were never really challenged, leading at one point by 24 in the second half.

Spain will next take on the winner of Lithuania?s quarter-final against Olympic hosts China.

Chris Bosh has emerged as a leader for Team USA in Beijing during this month's Olympics, according to The Toronto Star.

"Chris Bosh was terrific," said Kobe Bryant after the team's 92-69 defeat of Greece on Thursday. "He always seems to find himself in the right place at the right time, and when we penetrate he's able to find a little crack or seam and be able to finish."

Bosh admitted that he has been able to lead by adjusting his game to exactly what Team USA needs from him.

"I can play defense, and I can play a different role," Bosh said. "I think that's hard for guys to accept sometimes, but I just want to win."
