    Interesting to learn that FIBA restricts players on each team to wear numbers between 4-15 only.

    Rudy doing reverse dunks in warmups. WTF

    Rudy is playing well. Completely shut down Gelabale.

    Up to that point Batum was totally invisible. I guess he just thought, fuck it, I'm a do this myself.

    No kidding. He seemed to let out a lot of frustrations of his minimal role with that throwdown.

    Rudy ALMOST got the inbounds alley-oop at the buzzer. In and out. Reminds me of the old days with Sergio.

    France should not be in this. Batum must have an insane +/- for this game.

    I don't think the French fans think Rubio was really hurting...

    The game has been way closer than I thought it would be. Spain should be blowing them out right now, but France's defense has been keeping them in it.
