Time to watch the live stream of Team USA vs. Czech Republic. Is the loss against France completely in the past? Let's find out.

Despite being a disjointed, uncohesive team in the warm-up games, the Czech Republic came out on top against Iran, winning 120-66 with Damian Lillard scoring 21 points, Devin Booker 16, and Jayson Tatum 15. Will that continue in this live stream of Team USA basketball from the Tokyo Olympics?

Hopefully, this past Sunday's loss to France will be the last time that Team USA will be able to play . 2004. but Team Czech won against Iran and lost to France, but only by 6 points over Iran, not by the 54 points the USA won by. Also, France beat the U.S. by 7 points, but not by 20 points over the Czechs.

The big dilemma for those of us at home is whether to watch this match live (more likely for those of us on the West Coast) or wait for it to be rebroadcast on Saturday afternoon.

Also, if you want to see it live, you have to pay the peacock.

The Olympics are a global event and can be seen in almost every country on earth. However, if you are not in your home country and cannot watch the live stream of Team USA vs. Czech Republic on your usual service, or if you prefer to watch it in your native language, you are not out of luck.

With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can pretend you are surfing the web from your hometown (or anywhere else not hit by a power outage) and access the same streaming services you have already paid for VPNs are perfectly legal and inexpensive and easy to use.

I'm not sure which VPN is right for me. After testing a variety of services, the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers great speed and excellent customer service. However, there are other VPN options out there.

The VPN is incredibly easy to use.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we have mentioned, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. select the location you want to connect to with the VPN app. For example, if you are in the US and want to see UK services, select UK from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Go to your preferred website or streaming service and tune in.

Unless you have a cable account and can watch on NBCOlympics.com, to watch the live stream of Team USA vs. Czech Republic at 8:00 am ET/5:00 am PT, the NBC streaming service Peacock required.

To view the 4 p.m. ET tape delay stream, you will need NBC, which is included in the $35/month Sling TV Blue package. The Sports Extras package (an additional $11/month) gets you Olympic channels; Sling is one of the best streaming services for Olympic viewing alongside our other recommendation: Fubo TV has over 100 channels (more than Sling), including all the networks mentioned above.

The games will likely be available on the new Discovery Plus service around 1pm BST. Discovery Plus broke the BBC's previous monopoly by purchasing the rights to the complete coverage of the Tokyo Olympics. This year, while the BBC is limited to two live events at a time, all competitions and all events will be available on Discovery Plus and on the Eurosport channel.

Discovery is currently offering a three-day free trial of the service, after which a full subscription is available for £6.99 per month or £29.99 per year. Additionally, the service is streamable through a number of devices, including Chromecast, Apple TV, Android TV, and apps for iOS and Android.

Americans abroad can use their favorite service by logging in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

The Olympics continue to confuse people in Canada.

TSN may be your best bet, as TSN's schedule states that it will cover the Olympics from midnight on TSN1, TNS2, and TSN4; Sportsnet's broadcast schedule does not include basketball; and TSN's schedule does not include the Olympic Games.

Again, Americans can visit their friends in the great white north and just use Peacock, provided they log in via a VPN such as ExpressVPN.

Down Under, Aussies can watch USA vs. Czech Republic for free on the network's 7Plus streaming service. Live streaming of USA vs. Czech Republic should begin around 2:40 p.m. EST.

I am currently out of the country. Please use ExpressVPN to access paid services.
