Scola is a beast. Crazy how he played in China last season but NBA bigs can't do Jack squat against him

This is some legendary **** from Scola. He is 39 and dominating.

16 ACB players in the final. Sometimes we don't realise what a great competion we have in Spain

Love the atmosphere the Argentinean fans are providing.... feels like a typical soccer game in South America

It's so fun, it seems that in all the playoff games, except for ones with Czech Republic and Poland (which by even reaching the playoff surprised everyone), the underdog won. This is basketball that I like

It means that Argentina will win in the finals by the way

Argentina was never the underdog to me. Gobert is great, but mainly against athletic drivers. That was never Argentina's game

It means European basketball is better than the basketball played in USA 8-)

In the 4th,there like 6 bad calls against Spain and just the Bogut foul is questionable.

They really need basketball to be popular in Australia or what?

Well France would do much better if there is some fix in and second Fiba screwed it up by not letting best officials that is possible to referee games. I think they are some 2nd or 3rd tier officials thats why no consistency.

Do you know what were the betting odds before the game? I mean, I guess France were the favourites, no?

After seeing what happened to Serbia and France after meeting Argentina, the US team should be so grateful they didn't meet Argentina... Argentina would have crushed them

Giannis NBA MVP, Scola the MVP of FIBA. It's like two different sports.

Well done to Spain, looks like it was a very close game. Either team could have won it. Our Boomers will need to regroup for next year. Very proud of their effort though!

Also, Scola is a beast. Him vs Gasol will be a battle.
