Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

SPAIN V CUBA GAME OPEN THREAD


The game starts at 19:30 in Canarias, which means 20:30 in the rest of Spain and 11:30AM in Portland. But broadcasting is delayed and won´t start untill 21.00 (Spain), 12:00AM Portland Time. What a mess!

Clarifying: WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO WATCH THE GAME STARTING AT 12:00AM PORTLAND TIME.

Someone, preferably myself, will post a TV internet link in this thread.

Aparently this link should do it.

You can also look for a link here (click on "21:00 Basket: España - Cuba"). Remember that sometimes the links in this site don´t appear until the last momment.  

Finally, there´s a link to follow stats, play by play, rankings, etc, but I aware you that it´s "live", I mean half an hour before the game broadcasting. Read twice before you click on here.

 

Rockets fans and Timberwolves ones are welcome. They have Sergio Llull and Ricky Rubio, or at least their rights.

nevermind...

I think I just figured it out by looking at the Spanish time. FYI…it’s much easier to understand, if you say 12 noon or 12 midnight. Just saying.

Maybe we could start with France vs. Spain at 11:00 am and then switch ;)

I don’t really feel like creating another Nic thread today.

Spain is a bit rusty, low 3pt percentage and some errors in defense. But Cuba is very inferior.

story of game

Spain pretty much scoring at will, and now that they’ve got a lead, not even working too hard at it. Cuba comes down every time and I guy goes 1 on 1 desperately. Rudy looked very confident. But again, this is like scrimmage. Ball handling solidly.
