SBS showing Spain vs China now (spoilers)

Almost three quarter time.

Showing it from the 3rd quarter rather than a full game. A slap in the face for basketball supporters.

Better than nothing and better than we got from Australia-Croatia.

China have a handy lead and are on track to cause a major upset.

Of course, as I say that, they cut to 72-70 with a minute to play?! We missed Spain reeling back a dozen points! SBS, WTF?!

Yao fouls out. 17yo Rubio in for OT - amazing.

That Ricky Rubio is a star and he's only 17! He'll be an NBA superstar that for sure.

SBS obviously were planning to show the whole second half but when they heard it went to overtime they realised they needed to cut some out. Can't really complain about that.

Aside from the random cutting to and from events, I have been very disappointed with the amount of delayed telecasts we are seeing on both channels.

Oh - and Rubio is a gun! How many steals does he get! (not to mention the "almost" steals - he would have been Dunlap's favourite if coached by him - number 1 on Spencer's deflection chart for sure!)

I should add that apparently Channel 7 in Spain have been flooded with complaints. Rumour has it they stopped showing the game during the 3rd quarter because it looked like Spain were going to lose and then rushed back to it with 1 minute to go only to cut to an ad just as Gasol was about to hit the game levelling basket!

I may be bias but come on, Pau has putting on a show! Yao couldn't stop him! People needs to give him more respect

Only saw this after the game and am kind of wishing China did get up.

Liked the look of Ricky Rubio and yes, his name does fit that Phil Collins song Psseudio: "Rick, Rick, Ricky Rubio!"
