There was a technical complication. At least we got the liveblog applet on the our website! The next step will definitely be to actually use the applet successfully. It's going to happen the next time. Really! Anyways, here's the "live" blog for the gold medal game.
- Okay for some reason the internet decides not to work when I finally get a liveblogging service up.
- But anyways it’s starting from 22-20 Spain is in the lead. Right now Deron Williams is shooting free throws.
- The US was down early but is now up 26-25
- Dwayne Wade is amazingly fast, he’s gotta be one of our most valuable players.
- Ricky Rubio has amazing talent but isn’t really polished. Sometimes he’ll drive through the lane and cut the defense up but won’t know where to go.
- Marc Gasol is turning into quite the post player. He really does look like a frackin redneck. He looks like he weighs 280 of pure thickness.
- I hate Tayshaun Prince, but I’m so glad that he’s on our team right now.
- Why is it that some of Spain’s players have their last name on their jerseys and some have their first names??
- After the first quarter its 38-31 USA-Spain. Team USA’s defense has been horrible.
- Where the f did Jimmy Kimmel come from, why does he get to do all the DirecTv commercials. But it’s rather hilarious when Jimmy’s running across the screen. He’s not trying to be funny but the image of him lugging himself across the screen!! LOL!
- Why isn’t Kobe Bryan’t on Ricky Rubio – Says
- How is that a flagrant?!!?!? F- that sh- - says Adriel
- I, however, think that Dwight Howard clearly had a flagrant against Pau.
- I think Kobe should step back 3 ft when he takes a 3. He is just too talented for this jv game.
- Lebron James is most definitely a football player. He just stiff-armed his way to a lay-up.
- Chris Paul made a half-court alley-oop pass. He is absolutely amazing.
- Poll of the week, are some of the Spanish players wearing superstars?!?!
- Dwayne Wade has what 999 steals??
- Dwayne Wade needs to be the MVP. NOW. F-. My associates are telling me there’s no MVP in the Olympics. In that case, ATA will have it’s own MVP vote at the end of this game.
- The Spanish Coach is the spitting image of Christopher Walken. Anybody??
- Even though the US ended the half up by 8 69-61, this was an atrocious half of defense.
- Wade is still being superman in the 3rd quarter, but USA’s defense is so porous.
- There is no no-charge zone in international ball. I hear that’s gonna change for the next games though. Still that really changes your approach when you drive on the fast break.
- Jimenez, has some outrageous hair. He’s bald, but he has a little island of hair in the front of his head.
- This is getting crazy, Spain is within 2 right now, because of USA’s sloppy defense and sloppy offense. We are playing too fast for even our skills.
- Spain has the hottest cheerleaders ever. Men cross-dressed as beer-maids. So hawt! So hawt!
- Kobe is actually coming through, instead of forcing a shot he drove for the assist.
- Now Kobe again didn’t force the 3, he drove for another assist to Dwight Howard.
- Wade is great and all, but he and James are playing out of control , Kobe loves the half-court
- Dwight Howard is not playing well right now. He isn’t making his free throws (he never does) but he’s not being the defensive presence he needs to be either. Rudy just dunked in his face, and Pau took him to the post.
- Kobe Bryant is my god. Kobe Bryant owns China. The Game is over. Kobe with his 4pt play finished the game. I’m calling it. I’m not blogging anymore because the game is Kobe’s. I’m gonna let Kobe blog from now on okay?
- Spain is outrebounding the US 36-29 with 1 minute to go! Perhaps Memphis didn’t get as robbed as everyone was so quick to assume??? Marc Gasol is a beast..
- Kobe comes through in the clutch again, with a layup and now my vote officially goes to him.
- Kobe and Coach K are having a flirt fest right now. That was so cute! Kobe dunked water over his head and then spanked shevski in the ass!!
- Kobe has to leave now to celebrate his gold medal.
