EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Another loss. Another day talking about Odell Beckham Jr.Its getting to be a habit for New York Giants rookie head coach Ben McAdoo.While McAdoo spent some time talking Tuesday about the Giants play in the wake of their 24-10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night, he probably spent much more time than he would have liked discussing Beckham and another of his emotional in-game outbursts.After his opening statement, McAdoo had to answer 11 of the next 12 questions about Beckham, his unsportsmanlike conduct penalty against the Vikings, the receiver saying Tuesday he was not having fun playing football, his claims the officials were targeting him, just to name a few.It was similar to last week after the loss to Washington. Beckham didnt get a 15-yard penalty in that game, but he had several meltdowns on the sideline during the game.McAdoo again had to talk about his best playmaker, but not for the plays he was making.The Giants had no media availability on Tuesday, but Beckham became the focal point in an interview with ESPNs Anita Marks.Football is my sanctuary, Beckham told her. Its where I go to escape. Its where Im most happy. Im not having fun anymore.McAdoo understood what his receiver was saying. He doesnt like losing and he certainly doesnt like being held to three catches for a career-low 23 yards.When we execute better, spread the ball around and everyone gets their opportunities, were going to have some fun, McAdoo said when asked about Beckhams comment.Until we execute better, hang onto the football and eliminate the penalties from our play, no one is going to be having any fun.Beckham didnt have much fun against the Vikings. Eli Manning did not throw a pass his way until the second quarter. When he caught a short one later in the quarter, Vikings cornerback Xavier Rhodes seemed to hit him late out of bounds.Beckham complained to the official and then said something to Rhodes.A flag came out and Beckham was hit with an unsportsmanlike penalty, costing the Giants 15 yards.McAdoo said that he thought there would have been offsetting penalties.Every game is officiated differently, McAdoo said. Not all crews officiate games the same way. You have scouting reports on officials just like you do on opponents. We need to understand how the games are going to be officiated. You usually find out pretty early.McAdoo said he was not aware whether the Giants planned to complain to the league about either the play or Beckhams allegations that he was being targeted by the officials.Beckham and Rhodes were matched against each other several times in the game and had some tiffs.McAdoo insisted those were not distractions to his team. He added that Beckham is a hard-working athlete who wants nothing more than to help his team win. He also said he speaks with Beckham every day, but refused to say what they talk about.The coach took the blame for Manning not throwing his way in the opening 22 minutes.Hes one heck of a player that wants the football, McAdoo said.However, Beckham needs to avoid getting any penalties that push his team back 15 yards.Manning said Beckham has to be aware that he is a focal point on the field for everyone.People are looking for him and hes got to be smart, Manning said. He cant afford to do anything that theyre going to call. Hes brought that on himself, so hes got to be aware of that.Game notes McAdoo said that TE Larry Donnell is in the concussion protocol. S Nat Berhe has not been cleared to play after sustaining a concussion last week. ...

LOS ANGELES -- The ball. Thats what Team USA coach Mike Krzyzewski came up as part of a list of things that are going to be challenging for the Americans during this five-game exhibition tour before they head to Rio de Janeiro for the Summer Olympics.It takes some time to adjust to the Molten basketball, which is used in international competition and is said to be a bit slicker than the Spalding basketballs used in the NBA, Krzyzewski said on Sunday after his teams 106-57 rout of China.Even with superstars such as Stephen Curry, Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, James Harden, Russell Westbrook and LeBron James pulling out of consideration for this Olympic team, Team USA is so much better than the teams theyll be playing during these warm-up games, its hard to assess just where the American team is.I hope were never challenged, Krzyzewski said after Team USAs second straight rout. But there have been challenging points in each game. A huge thing is for us to just get to know one another [on this tour]. ... The rules and the ball. You can tell with some of our guys, they dont have the feel yet. Its a challenge to adapt to the game.The challenging points Sunday came, um, in the first quarter when Team USA led just 10-7 with 3 minutes, 10 seconds to go. But then Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson came in and started raining 3-pointers and the Americans went on a 16-6 run to close the quarter.I dont think theres any coach that likes not to see the ball go in, Krzyzewski said. Because theres a part of you that says -- Will it?I dont care what team youre coaching, you would feel that way.Still, this is what constitutes worry for Team USA at this point.And it basically went away as soon as Durant and Thompson started making shots.For all the talk of the lack of experience and leadership on this years team -- only Durant and Carmelo Anthony played in the 2012 Summer Olympics -- the talent gap, particularly against the teams the Americans will play on this exhibition tour, is still virtually insurmountable.ddddddddddddThere are teams that are capable of challenging the U.S. once it gets to Rio -- Spain, France, Serbia to name a few -- but right now the Select Team would probably push them harder than Argentina, China or Nigeria during this tour.In the meantime, Krzyzewski said hes putting the team focus on building a defensive identity because of the versatility and athleticism it has on that side of the ball.This group has been a fabulous group to coach, Krzyzewski said. None of the groups weve coached have worked harder defensively.Sunday he tried out lineups with Indiana Pacers swingman Paul George defending the point guard position and loved the pressure he was able to put on the ball. Then, theres the dimension Los Angeles Clippers center DeAndre Jordan gives them.Jordan began the game with a thunderous block on Chinas Wang Zhelin, then raced down the court to slam home an alley-oop, which got the home crowd out of its seats early.Coach told me if I didnt do anything in the first 30 seconds I was coming out, said Jordan, who finished with 12 points, 5 rebounds and 3 blocks in just 17 minutes.Team USA will face this same Chinese team Tuesday at Oracle Arena, then finish out the tour in Chicago and Houston.A lot of the times were thinking about the opponent, Jordan said. But with only five games, all we really need to work on is ourselves.
