It's been nothing but a Real Madrid and Pau Gasol show in the FIBA Eurobasket 2015. My boys stand a chance of having won it all in one season if they defeat Lithuania on Sunday. Vamos Chicos!! Vamonos!

These EuroBaskets have been a Paul Gasol Show!

I hope him a win today, and probably Unanimous Decision MVP!

I think it's been a little bit exaggerated. Wouldn't be for his team mates + luck, they wouldn't have got there. Wouldn't be for Llull and Rodriguez' last 7 points, Germany were winning that game in Germany. What if Schröder made all those 3 free-throws and took the game to the ET?

Same luck they had vs Greece in the quarter final.

Gasol had a monster perfomance vs France, but it wasn't all that it's made out to be. Gobbert had him, til he fouled himself outta the game. I wonder how it woulda gone, had Batum made those 3 free-throws in the ET. If Rudy hadn't made that steal on Tony Parker(How badass was that?). How my boy Rodriguez left Tony Parker for dead, are things you don't hear.

But they will definitely beat Lithuania, easily. I watched how Lithuania played Serbia, and I just can't see how they're going to win today. And Gasol will take his MVP home, deservedly, but his shows have been overrated a bit.

Man, Basketball is teamgame, though most of the credits go to the best player of the particular team, some good luck also comes with it.

Spain were not better since game 1, they managed through luck and team work (experience carried them too).

Tony Parker was off most of the game, poor shooting, poor D etc etc! Lithunia stole the show, I wanted to see Serbia taking Spain in the final, a rematch to their opening games.

However, a win is a win regardless of whether the opponent missed FT or a shot that could hae changed the results.

True that. But i just hate it when it's only made to be about Gasol's.

I really felt for Tony that night man, he was owned not once, not twice. Don't know what was wrong with Gelabale too. Gobert was on a roll, tho. I was scared for Spain, that France team was a beast, and they started like a team on a mission. That shot Batum took that levelled the score, bruh!!

Serbia were simply off, that night. They didn't deserve to go through. I'm just happy it's Lithuania, cuz my boys will have it easier than all games they've played so far.

Don't be 100% sure that you will knock off Lithunia, they might surprise you.

I usually prefer the finals that are in series as compared to a single game!

I wish you all the best man, i am rooting for the underdog.

Yo right man. But we've been through tough games already, and came close to losing too many times. This won't be one of those. I gripped my cojones too many times during those games, but not tonight man. They don't have Nowitzki, they don't have Antetokounmpo, they don't have Tony. We taking this one home tonight, we have to.

They have Jonas Valanciunas, he has dominated most of the games they have played.

They have best defense in these games, it won't be easy for Spain.

Their team spirit is so high, anyone taking this is fine with me, tho would be happy for them Lithunia to get a gold medal this time.

Alright man. Game's about to start. Let's see.
 
Boo-yah!! France is full of classless sports-men. It's not only Thierry Henry.
 
Anything Capi hasn't lifted this season? Copa del Rey, Liga, Euroleague, and now..
