It hurts because check the Rio highlights and we got totally screwed by the refs in exact same situation against Spain.

Oh well. It was an entertaining game....

oh please don't even dare to complain about the refs

It feels like all these teams - Spain, France, Australia (and maybe you can add US and Serbia) are very close in their level, so little things decided the outcome of all games.

You somehow missed “foul” on Mills in last seconds?

Are you talking about flopping?

Who shot mills with a bazooka in the over time?

Yeh that was bad as well but it shouldn’t have been in that situation. Mills missed the free throw and I get that. But the Gasol call preceded it and Australia should’ve had the ball up 1 with 4 seconds left.

No need to talk about refs - they were bad both sides.
Simply enjoy such a competitive game

Rubio and Rudy flopped all over the place. It was disgusting to watch

Congrats Spain, great game!

Gasol was unstoppable.

Refs were awful on both sides.

Spain‘s competitiveness is out of the charts. NOBODY in Spain expected them to even make the SF.

What about Mills being shot with a bazooka every time a Spanish player sniffed him? Stop the whining, game was out of control for the refs pretty much all along. They were bad to both teams.

All hope in Gobert now, but I bet Marc's gonna school him.

You really don't like Spain haha. Marc will be very tired for the final, but he could still perform well.

You tend to forget the robbery in the first game of that semifinal. But do not worry man, it's been so many years and still Chelsea is no one in Europe.

Yet, this is not the thread to cry about it, my lovely whinner.

Great game by both teams.

Annoyed with how Lemanis was coaching the onballs with Gasol. He killed us on them.

Rubio pissed me off with his constant whinging and flopping!

Last thing of note that foul on Bogut at the end of regulation when he was pushed by Gasol while trying to box out. We had lots of opportunities to win don't get me wrong and I probably could blame the loss on a million other plays but what the hell nonetheless. What ref in their right mind would make that call on a box out with 5 sec left in a semi final without having been paid (as Bogut insinuated). Absolute ****
