Welcome to the forum <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I have only one thing to say- if one team is doing something wrong, getting help from refs etc. it doesn't make it ok when another team does it just cuz 'it was done before' and you can understand why we feel the way we feel about Spain.

Welcome to the forum again!

Yes, of course but I feel the refs did really well today. Spain didn’t get any favours in THIS tournament. I’m not neutral of course. Thanks!

^^ Welcome Forca!! Great to see you on TB!! Did you just find the site or have you been lurking around here for a while? <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Please stick around, your contribution was always excellent over at 24sec.

Thanks Skangles! I saw the site a few months ago from the 24sec forum, but I was so busy with things at University to write in the forum. I read it sometimes when Valencia was having a great party in the Euroleague but hopefully I will post regularly from now (my English is quite better now too) <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> . So I decided today was the perfect day to be back after saw the negative comments on here (obviously because we won, if not I’m not here I tell you <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> ).



I’m worried because I’m just happy about winning the Eurobasket. Sometimes I miss that type of hard fought games as the Spain-Croatia of 2005. That was aid! In the Olympics I don’t see Spain fighting again for gold, but probably it’s last time to watch Pau Gasol with a Spanish shirt so expect something good.

Ok, man. It's your opinion, we respect that! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thup.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':thup:' />



...but you can't say Gasol is the best player you've ever seen!!! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

There is some standard things that no matter what the opinion of someone is, are for sure!

Well, I'm 20 and speak in European levels. I feel like that right now, probably not four years ago. Obviously in my imaginary list! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Welcome to the site, I was on 24sec but I never recall seeing you around?



Anyway, if you read what I wrote earlier, Spain has some blindingly amazing talent, mostly concentrated in Navarro and P. Gasol. Altogether the team performed supremely and are at a level that all other teams just couldn't reach no matter how hard they tried. However, what I am talking about is that your Spanish players are not gracious winners, and I can remember many a match where the refs were in your heavy and provocative favour, Navarro famous flops, Pau's eternal bitching and moaning (including Navarro too), coupled with today's 'amazing' performances from Rubio and Fernandez where they tried to hit Parker badly. Especially what Fernandez did could have caused serious damage to Parker and Fernandez should have been ejected from the final for this. Again, deeply disappointing for a fine athlete that he is, but as a person he's a downright c*nt.

Hey, we talked a wee bit about Fotis Katsikaris and their times in Valencia! <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Some Greece-Spain shows too <img src='http://www.talkbasket.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> ForçaPamesa at that time. Now Pamesa is gone! And I agree with you in saying that Rudy and others like Llull are cunts. Others as Calderón, Marc and San Emeterio aren’t. And don’t agree about that foul on Parker, although.
