Spain beat up again towards the Olympics

This time she got to taste the flavor of Lithuania canvas, metaphorically speaking. The kids Aito Garcia Reneses won by 91-66.

The Spanish national basketball is a reflection of the good moment of sport Spanish. It is the height of the top and certainly the edge in terms of sportsmanship is concerned. The team found no endless debates and the choice of soccer or egos hardly tamed as Fernando Alonso in Formula 1.

The boys basketball, perhaps having grown up in a part of the world where football is as much rest as you are only paying attention when he wins, kids are nice and humble. And most important: they are a pineapple both on and off the hardwood.

Last night, again made use of that balance with each other all the players to beat Lithuania, embedded in the same group as Argentina in the Olympics.

Rudy Fernandez, Felipe Reyes and Juan Carlos Navarro were the highest scorers from a team that effectively combines performance, maddening attack defense. Today, few teams are at the height of the Spanish, who may miss a game due to lack of concentration or isolated failures, but not because the star player is gone. There is no star player in the Spanish selection. A Nowitzki in Germany or Yao Ming in China, but that was the bulwark of the selection, Pau Gasol, is fortunate to be among a group of players out of range. We saw in the 2006 World's solvency with which eliminated his rivals and, today, U.S. only if they put aside his ego and individualism, and Argentina, particularly Argentina, could end the Olympic dream selection.

And quietly, the selection has an assured future with gems like Ricky Rubio and Victor Claver.
