Location: Barcelona - Palau Sant Jordi Time: 11:30am Pacific time Radio:710 ESPN at 11:30am Pacific TV:ESPN2 at 11:30am Pacific and KCAL 9 at 7pm Pacific time What you guys think.. I know is preseason but Euro champs vs NBA champs. And ya for all the Rubio lovers you might see him in action against NBA talent. \ Forca Barca
I wonder if Kobe will insist on guarding Rubio like he did Rondo, and then just back off him daring him to shoot.
If you believe chemistry+talent is better than all-star teams like me, then you'd probably say that the Lakers could beat Team USA. So, I feel FC Barcelona is probably better than Spain.
Lakers can win if they tired. I don't think they will play hard cause it an exhibition game after all...
maybe espn 360 will have it? but navarro never ceases to impress me. He is cearly not too athletic, but he is so savy and efficient he just makes things happen to the get habll in, and I remember his only year in the NBA he actually averaged in double digits had a couple 30 point games and i remember hitting some clutch shots too but he didnt want to have on and off minutes when he could be the sar adn not worry abotu that in europe. but love his game
I don't understand the fascination for Ricky Rubio. He's too skinny, too weak, and he plays in the Euroleagues... Any half-decent NBA player could dominate there...
Euroleagues are far superior to American college basketball. The guy is 19 years old, he is preparing himself for the NBA more than most American ballers
Is that actually the first time an NBA team loses one of these exhibition matches against a European team (much less the NBA champion!)? By the way, Pete Mickael looks like he could definitely deserve minutes on most NBA teams.
