Real Madrid is a great team, I expect them to keep the game close, possibly win it.

Madrid's roster at full speed is a thing of beauty, and they could beat Boston, but they are banged up, it should be an easy match-up for Boston.

Sergio Rodriguez should be in the NBA right now, he'll test Avery/Smart to their fullest. Love Jaycee Carroll's competitiveness, he should play well. Will be interested to see how much Thompkins has grown, was always soft.

Good matchup that will test this team big-time, especially with the vets out.

RIP Leonard Nimoy (hometown guy for us).

Sergio is a beast. That guy went a long way, is much better player nowadays. It's the beard obviously.

Is Jeff Taylor playing? I really curious how he translates to Euro ball, I think he can be pretty good. If he improves his shot, shall I say next Trajan Langdon?

Yeah Sergio lit it up last RM game (or maybe it was the Spanish national team?) I watched. Expecting good play from him.
