    I've got to go with France, just because, as you say, they beat Spain with Marc AND Pau last year, but both teams have had their shaky moments. If there's a secret weapon for Spain it would be Mirotic, though - he's definitely been their second best player. Basically it's all on Tony Parker, though.

    FWIW I think Serbia wins it all, though.

    A great game, 4 ex-Blazers, Batum had a huge 3-pointer to tie the game in regulation, then was fouled on a 3 by Claver down 3 with a few seconds left in OT, missed the first, missed the 2nd, missed the 3rd on purpose and France lost.

    Man! I thought France were running away with it, so I went out. What a game to miss! Happy for Spain - they have 3 ex-Blazers to France's 1. San Antonio have to be worried at how bad Parker looks.

    I don't think it matters what happens in the final (Serbia over Spain - book it) - Pau is this year's MVP, easy. He got 40 points in this game. Meanwhile Tony Parker went 4/17 for 10 points...

    Let's NOT say it, otherwise we look like a bitter ex-lover who needs to move on.

    Pau Gasol is a stud. No way will he far as fall in some fantasy drafts as he did last year.

    Shows what I know - they're about to lose to Lithuania in the semis.

    Nico blowing those last 3 free throws is just baffling...seems like France sort of mailed it in in that loss.
