Spain plays basketball like they play football. A tikitaka kinda style. Swift precise no dwelling on the ball passing. Really satisfying to watch their game
@@jalejandromartin7642 So who were the other 10 players on the team? Because last time I checked an Olympic basketball team only consist of 12 players…
The US 2008 and 2012 squad said that Spain would never let the US close out the game with 2 digit and more lead, they would stick close to the US team in terms of points
2014 USA Fiba Team was the best. Best chemistry and made for international play. Beat every team they played by more than 20 points even in the gold medal game.
2012 Team gets overlooked because of the story behind the 2008 team and redemption. But the 2012 squad was actually way better. Kobe, Durant, Melo, Lebron, Harden, Westbrook, Anthony Davis on the same team. Lawd.
Kobe Bryant (MVP) LeBron James (4× MVP) Kevin Durant (MVP) James Harden (MVP) Russell Westbrook (MVP) Might be the 2nd best Olympic team ever assembled.
In the 2012 Olympics The Lithuania Game = Lebron The Nigeria Game = Melo The Australia Game = Kobe The Argentina Game = Melo The Spain Gold Medal Game = KD
Did the 92' team ever faced an opponent like Spain??? So organized and skilled 2012 U.S.A my favorite dream team ❤ kobe KD Bron Carmelo chris paul making players turning their ankles look at the speed of game execution totally different degree of snipers
Que juegazo dio España, dieron pelea hasta los últimos minutos del último cuarto que fue cuando USA se despegó más. Se quedaron muy cerca de dar una de las sorpresas más grandes en la historia del deporte para mi gusto
@pochozz2684 Y? en los ultimos 15 años Argentina no ha sido rival para España, ni siquiera en la final del 2019, España ganó fácil. Los rivales de España han sido USA y Francia en europa ( bueno Francia ha hecho lo que ha podido).
Can you guys please start posting 2021 highlights? I barely get to witness anything that happens due to time differences and limited television coverage. I understand the highlights may come on UA-cam later, but it is not the same when they’re posted weeks or even months later. Please post every single event that happens, without discrimination of the popularity, as it is your job to bring the games to all of us. At the moment I feel as if the olympics are some kind of whitelisted, pay per view type of event, which is absolutely a disgrace and shame as this is a once in a four year international affair that everyone should be able to experience. If this lag in video production persists it is terrible for marketing the games.
@@LPjunemark that was after his rookie year. Did you watch the highlights of this match? After LeBron it was CP3 who was the most clutch when it mattered.
Meanwhile LeBron James will not play in his last olympics. But where's James Harden, Jimmy Butler, Paul George, John Collins, Ja Morant, Trae Young, Zion Williamson, and Stephen Curry? These players only care for personal stats in their stat-padding league. They've disrespected the olympics. That's it.
That USA team has to be forbidden to take, they are all hall of fame like in 2008, that one from 2012 was only missing Curry and Spain lost 6-7 points.... Against the USA nobody wins only in 2004 without all the all stars or hall of fame going like the 12 they took between 2008 and 2012.
That group pose during that photo session truly shows how great the chemistry was in that 2012 US team.
Could be one of the best USA vs Spain we see for years to come
How bout 2024 semis 👀👀
For Spain to go toe to toe with a basketball juggernaut like USA just shows how incredible they were.

Both are best in plan of game
Spain stregth is smart center. And having few turnover as a team. And usa weakness smart center.
I watched this match 11 years ago :) big respect for both teams.
2012 london was one of best Olympics in history coz of crowd , competition every goat 🐐 player was in his peak
Kobe and Pao relationship is gold. How Pao has been to Kobe's family is nothing short of true friendship
P.S. writing this in 2024
Kobe Bryant ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Just when you thought you couldn’t get better in 2008, you go ahead and get 3 more future MVPs on your team in KD, Harden, and Westbrook 😂
2012 was better than 2008

Thr best. Dream team disqualified for playing fans
Who would have thought that this would be the closest that Spain would ever get to winning an Olympic gold medal in basketball.
The game was much more beautiful and diverse 12 years ago...
In the 2012 Olympics
The Lithuania Game = Lebron
The Nigeria Game = Melo
The Australia Game = Kobe
The Argentina Game = Melo
The Spain Gold Medal Game = KD
Don't repeat the highlights of 2012 Olympics games.
Please 2021 🙏

Best rivalries in basketball
Argentina no es rival para ninguna de las otras 2
Bullsh.

To me this game was as scary as the 2008 final one.
The coldest photo
Where is the tokyo olympic basketball videos?!
Outside of missing Curry, are these two teams better than the 2 teams who just played in the finals?
@Olympics when are you going to release the 2021 basketball Olympics on this channel?
Stop showing these throw backs it fills the feed up and it’s annoying
Cry more 😩😩
