I honestly can't believe butthurt Euros can possibly complain about the officiating when it was so biased in Spain's favor. Did you guys miss Lebron, Kobe, Wade, Howard all getting in early foul trouble on absolutely nothing? Or how about Marc Gasol punching Chris Bosh in the face in the 4th quarter right in front of the official for no call? Or how about all the flops that Spain got called when the US couldn't get a legit charge to save their lives.

The officiating kept Spain in the game. They should have handed them a bouquet of roses at the end for doing their best to make it close.

I don't really care about traveling as far as you don't get advantage of those steps.

What strikes me as inconceivable is that Howard was not fouled out. Weak ass fouls or not, he got called a fourth of all he did. That and constant 3-secs violations.

The USA team is better, much better, but they had the gold won beforehand. Refs were as generous and permissive with them as gymnastics' judges were with the China team.

Again, nevermind the fact that ALL THEIR SCREENS ARE FUCKING MOVING, HENCE = ILLEGAL. Nah, that little quarter step our nigra took in the wide open court is far more important than illegally creating wide open threes or floaters from the free throw line all day long...

No, no one gives a shit about Basketball. Even in Spain Basketball clubs struggle to get more than 20k to show up to a game, when la liga attendances however are huge. Everywhere else in Europe is even worse. Pic related, I guess it's huge in... Lithuania. Woo.

See the thing is /sp/ got a shit load of trolls from crap boards like /b/ and /v/ when the Olympics started. Easiest way to troll /sp/? EU vs USA threads. 90% of these "HURR CHINA WON OLYMPICS TAKE THAT AMERIKKA" are started by Americans to troll Americans (and boy do you guys take the bait).

Here's how you know these trolls aren't European:

A) Europeans don't care about the Olympics. I guarantee you Euro 08 was the bigger event there this summer (which Spain won, ironically).

B) Europeans don't care about Basketball, as stated before.

C) Europeans don't consider themselves European. I don't know where Americans got the idea that Europe unites to take down BIG BAD AMERIKKA, they fucking hate each other too much to do that.

What the hell does that have to do with anything? EURO was a far bigger and far, far more important event to everyone in Europe, than the Olympics will ever be. I know it makes you amerifags fell good if you think that your better in an event other people actually care about, but we just don't.
