Spain and Greece both look like garabage

My god this looks like the summer league.  Spain is really a contender?  Maybe it's just opening day jitters, but neither of these teams look like they would win 10 games in an NBA season.

 Anyone else watching this?

BTW Marc Gasol = Geico caveman + Pau Gasol

really?

anything to back that up with? any analysis?

Spain has a team loaded with NBA players and talent. The Gasol brothers might be “Euro-snuggaly-soft”, but teams want them, and for good reason. Garbage-Hoser, or whatever is on a team. Calderon took it to the hoop, and hit his threes just enough to make facilitating team ball easy. Ricky Rubio,at 17 is allready a projected lottery pick. Rudy Fernandez, will play for Portland this year, and although bad on defence during the first half, his offence was efficient the entire game. They might not wind gold, but they would trash more then a few teams in the NBA that are not as deep as Paul, or Chandler coming off the bench. They Played “Team Basketball”, and its a team loaded with NBA talent.

Yes, I know that on paper Spain looks like a contender…in the actual game with Greece they looked terrible. Did you watch the game? No need to get your feathers ruffled about your man Rudy.

Yeah, I watched

Not trying to get ruffeled about Rudy, though maybee thats all it was. I would like to see them both okay for gold, as no other team should be able to bring out the best in either. and I watched the game twice, they certainly played more of a team game then USA did though. Although I think Rubio is going to struggle with D-Wlll a little, and Rudy wont be making it look easy. But tsoft as they are, the Gasol brothers should make some progress.
