At least this generation of spanish players does not seem to flop.
 
This damn Brizuela commits offensive foul every time he penetrates with the off hand. Super blatant but never called.
 
Willy outscoring Markkanen 25-23. You would think Spain wins the game every time in that scenario.
 
By the way I love the FIBA lane violation rule. NBA should adapt it. You make the shot no foul no harm.
 
Finland tried but they are not good enough for a team with such a DNA. Maybe eventually.

Rudy has as much basketball inside him as 5 Finland teams unfortunately.
 
Rudy killer mentality....Dont like him but he is an extraordinarily good player.
 
Finland is a good team offensively, but at this level you need to play defense. Simple as that
 
When Willy cancels Markkanen out offensively Spain will win by double digits every time.
 
Great tournament by Spain! But in my opinion it will definitely end in the semis no matter who they play.
 
Quick thoughts:
-Finland is lovely but they need a Center, not a star but some kind of Pustovyi would change all for them.
-From our side, much more than expected considering our roster, we are initiating a transition which should end with Almansa´s and Mara´s generation.
-But some players are completely out: Pradilla, Jaime Fernández and XLA can be good role players but they seem to be mentally blocked. At least good game of Brizuela and Parra.
-Rudy, a legend. Normally in his shoes all of us would have been having a relaxed summer with the family. But he a true captain. 5 steals today, much more impressive than his 3´s.

Let´s see if Germany can face Greece to enjoy this love game, this lovely tournament.
