I see no one from US has responded to this. I've tried to come up with a list of most significant/infamous US moments across Olympic history, not my 5 moments.
1. Jesse Owens 4 gold medals in 1936.
2. 1980 US Ice Hockey team (although I personally believe the 1960 ice hockey team was a greater sports accomplishment).
3. 1972 US Basketball team.
4. 1994 Womens figures skating.
5. Frank Shorter 1972 Marathon (because it really triggered the running revolution in the US).
US names Men’s 3x3 team.
Noteworthy, one member is Canyon Barry, the son of NBA Hall of Famer Rick Barry.

That one was a biggie. One judge from Morrocco was quoted in the US magazine Sports Illustrated saying that Jones won easily, but that he put down Park Si-hun as the winner because he thought a 5-0 decision would have embarrassed the host country.
