This afternoon for 48 minutes ++, I sticked my eyes to the TV and watched the Olympic Men’s basketball gold medal match between USA and Spain. The United States won the gold medal, defeating Spain 118-107. Finally, I managed to watch one basketball match during Beijing 2008 Olympics. What I can say that both teams put up a wonderful game and an very exciting one.

And you gotta know this guy - Ricky Rubio, the 17 year old Spanish point guard.

He is the youngest player to ever win an Olympic Men’s Bball medal. He can be considered as a child prodigy in basketball. At the age of 14, he played in the Spanish ACB League. In today’s match, Rubio scored six points.

Overall, I’m a little disappointed because the team I supported lost.
