[elgranherreros]

[g4dS]

LaFrentz? hahahahahahaha

[fadeawade03]

INdiana was a terrible choice....90% of the arena was empty

[timawela]

@fadeawade03 you cannot win a world cup with that frontcourt. 3 no-scoring guys. it's a pity that USAB doesn't keep those guys managing it at all. GO SPAIN!!!!!

[exciter1207]

quien es el tio de las gafas?

[xWillBeEndx]

Lucio Angulo; uno de los mejores aleros de la ACB por entonces. Había sido líder en robos de la liga ese año.

[RAKSO54]

El gran Lucio Angulo. ExCai Zaragoza, Tau Cerámica, Real Madrid, Lucentum Alicante y actualmente en el Cáceres 2016 Basket de la LEB Oro.

[Morzikei]

nice to see the Americans support their team... I think that such an arena would be filled up in every basketball-loving country even if it was a 6th place match.

[PETROforever]

watch last 10 minutes of game USA VS SPAIN BEIJING FINALE 2008 - watch?v=sQPsXKPYvUI

[POIA969]

no era la mejor apoca del basket español pero se demostro que con un arbitraje decente, mas o menos, y presionando a EEUU se les podia ganar a ese equipo que ahor son estrellas y lideres de equipos NBA. Y se demuestra tambien que Junyent lo que ha tenido es mala suerte y que la ACB esta por encima tecnicamente de la NBA.

[Cezarexxx]

sigue soñando hasta que te despiertes.Pero seguro que cuando lo hagas te sentiras enojado

[Serpentor1080]

Yo, si su lectura este y la calle del amor que compite cheque fuera mi canal. La calle que Compitiendo directamente del Bronx, Nueva York

[dunkfest2k]

lol williams, lafrentz WHOO??, two highlights of Ben Wallace scoring, Old Reggie Miller, Andre Miller at PG?? NICK FREAKING COLLISON!

GEORGE KARL AS COACH????

and thrown together at the last minute... did they seriously think they can win the 2002 championship with this kind of roster and preparation?

USA can put a better team than that... fuck look at what the 2008 team did! now that's how you should assemble a USA basketball team.

[mawriz]

This just shows you can no longer send 2nd-rate teams to international competition.

[Erikhaos]

Yeah... from 2002 -2006

No Superstars and balanced team with good preparation, no gold.

We could have won them all... in 2002 we had Kobe Bryant, Shaq, Kenyon Martin, Jason Kidd, Mike Bibby, Tracy McGrady, Tim Duncan, Allen Iverson, Vince Carter, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce was OK on this team... In a few words... we had enough talent and time to make a good roster but for some fucking reason USA Basketball don't care too much about the World's. But USA won't lose again in a few years.

[costantman]

usa team in 2002 was so awful!

[axlman5]

2008: USA 119 Spain 82

Take that Spain!

I guess Spain didn't have a good siesta before the game.

[megadriver23]

119-82 USA destroyed spain today

[lewalcindor]

The U.S. team here actually didn't look too bad talent wise. They could have definitely beaten the Spanish team, no problem.

The major problem is that since the Dream Team whooped everyone's asses in 1992, every 'Dream Team' approached the international competition like and all-star game and played lackadaisically. It all ended in 2002 and 2004.

The one highlight I remembered from the 2002 championships was a multi-player alley-oop dunk featuring Ben Wallace. That says it all.

[jwalter81]

i don't wanna hear any excuses from you Spain fans when your team gets beat down in the upcoming game with us

[Kahvilassa]

This US team had Reggie Miller, Paul Pierce, Elton Brand, Andre Miller was at his prime dude, he was the best PG at the time

[spartan1081990]

arriba España joder!

[okyssss]

i like the nba basket but dont lie,lebron,chris paul,dwight howard,wade,carmelo...

they are not college boys,they are all stars in your league,probably the best of the nba,u dont have better players,the only difference between before and now is kobe,and we will see what hapen this summer

[supersanjuanero]

so you´re saying you lost because Ralf(not ray)Lafrentz and Andre Miller?What about J.O´Neal,E.Brand,PAUL PIERCE,B.Davis,Reggie,Finley,M­arion? And they were all on their prime.They were a nice group of players but they weren´t a team.That´s why they lost(and in 2004,2006...) 2008? If I remember well the 2006 team was the same team only without Kobe(such a team player)and you are triying to scare us saying that they are the pros? After losing to Greece?

[Szurikan]

It;s good to see then nba circus team lost. And we will see this in next summer games, because american players playing without the heart and only for money. I wish bad luck to you nba circus team...

[rustygates]

u Obviously got it wrong, in this 'next summer games' this 'circus team' beat every other team by an average of 30 points/game, had a 8-0 Win/Loss, And got the gold medal. Thx for the bad luck tho. Thats y USA only won against spain for the gold by 11points..only 11 points. But anyway, A big gold medal to them all, including Dwayne Wade.

[jlhorns07]

whatever... that was like our 20th best roster.. andre miller??? ray lafrentz?

try kobe, lebron, and melo. you might as well give us the gold.

[polychronio]

basketball is too easy sport for spain. spain play the hardest sport in the world football so good.

[nicolasnijs]

every american is claiming usa is sooo good but why does usa lose in this video or in athens or in the world championship in spain

[rhythm013]

everyone has bad games...

[Crocketman1990]

i hope all u spain lovers realize we are bringing the stars now... no more college boys

[rhythm013]

i hope you realize spain is going down....

[molonlave2010]

nice victory Spain, I love to watch USA lose on any given day lol

[polychronio]

spanish players are so good at dribbling and technical plays in football.. Look at their football team. they are so good at possessing the ball and play beautifully. I think spanish basketball is same beautiful and technically stunning!

[araquistain]

Spain is the best basket team of the world and Spaniard's league the best of Europe!

[Leskograd]

USA suck in basketball,last time they won the world championship was in 1994.

[bafumster]

You guys obviously don't know much about American basketball. We produce the best basketball players in the world just like Brazil produces the best football players. Our players have more technical skill than most foreign players. That doesn't mean we don't know how to play fundamental basketball, we are just advancing our game. If the U.S. put a team together with our best players like during the 90's we would win every competition. Ben Wallace and Raef Lafrentz are not stars in the U.S.

[nicolasnijs]

usa doesn't know how to defense , and the foreign players have more thechnical skillz than the american players. at europe live the nba teams allways lose against european teams. barcelona nr.1

[rhythm013]

you have no idea what your talking about...

[goresoakedraincoat]

When nba teams play euro teams it is an exhibition game and the nba teams don't play their stars past the first quarter. it is treated like a preseason game. even the bottom of the barrel nba teams would destroy any euro team if the nba team took it seriously.

[TA6football]

thios is so true. i dont understand why people put thumbs down for this. hes not dissing other countries from europe. its the truth. NBA would dominate just like they did in olympics. so fuck all you bitches who disagree stop hating.

[U2B8]

retard pbly didnt watch gold medal game, usa didnt dominate

[alfondiaz]

je je a trnquilete colega a ver si te vas a confundir!!

[Crocketman1990]

dude watch 2008 were bringing the pros to play

[prasinilla]

Dude it's been the pros for the last seven years XD move over US of ASS

[SerchoGu]

les volveremos a ganar en la final de Pekin

[jugons1]

la bomba 1:35

[SupraGT510]

American players are all about the highlights.dunks the flashy passes...learn to shoot a open shot, learn to play team ball, stop being selfish learn the fundamentals go back to basketball roots. USA Basketball just got conquered.

[MATERAYYI]

Paul Pierce didn't looked OK playing in the morning.Loosers they will never win anything any more. They can't even beat Spain. Good luck for Spain in the next Olympics, they are the best that Europe has at the moment. But, of course, they're nothing comparing to the absolute champions Serbia. We need to play with this third team for twenty more years so you can raise half of our medals-Spain and USA together. Greetings from Serbia

[johannesjuanes]

Serbia is nothing compared to spain. This spanish team is superior to the team that won you the world tittle in 2002 and we have beat you like 20 times in a row against serbia. Be graceful and not a nationalist prick. Serbia was as good as spain is now cause spain is world champ and cause spain has the best players ( a lot better than the serbian)

[Cruiman]

la proxima vez le quitas la musica de fondo.

[SpainGreatestEmpire]

lol the yanks owned at home

[luiska23]
