3rd Quarter just ended, Barcelona 56, Real Madrid 47.

1 Quarter left to play to decide who the champions are this season.

[Kuka]

The Palau's buzzing! 9 point lead with a quarter to go

[Roger]

Going down to the wire.

Barcelona up by 3 points with 14 seconds left.  They looked like they were going to choke and give this one up, but ended up fighting back and keeping the advantage........

Real Madrid draining 3 pointers at the end,

Now Barcelona up by 2 with 5 seconds left and the ball having been fouled.......

Makes 1 of 2.....  Barca up by 3, and they foul Real Madrid with 2 seconds left.

Makes the first one

Misses the second on purpose, but a foul gives the ball to Barcelona, up by 2 with 1.8 seconds left.....  fouled with 1 second on the clock.

Makes the 1st....

Makes the 2nd, up by 4, game over!  Barcelona have won the league!

(would prefer Badalona, but always better if it is Barcelona over Real Madrid )

[Kuka]

Well, that was one hell of a finish! Real made it really tough with those 3 pointers. In the end, they ran out of time. Another 20-30 seconds and I had a feeling Regal would've choked

Always nice to put one over Real, no matter the sport or competition.

Don't know if this has been posted yet, apologies if it has.

Madrid Basketball players, following the poor sportsmanship standards that have been recently set by their footballing counter parts, walked off the floor before FC Barcelona got the trophy after the finals victory earlier this week:



You'll notice that when they won the Copa del Rey in Basketball earlier this year against Barcelona, the Barcelona players like their footballing counter parts did respectfully stay out for the trophy presentation.

Madrid, as a club, are really becoming a bunch of poor losers.

Haha just like Isiah Thomas did when the Bulls finally conquered the Pistons in the early 90s.

Deulofeu with 2 goals, plus the deciding PK in the shootout today against France in the Sub-19 Euro semi-final.

They will now play in the final on Sunday.

[II Capitano]

Deulofeu is such an amazing talent. Throughout the tournament, his perseverance has been a positive. He keeps getting doubled up on, but he doesn't shy away like a lot of young players do. I agree with what most journalists have been saying regarding his character, that it lets him down slightly. Other than that, a gem will come alive in the next few seasons.

Could you elaborate on his character issues?

So my mens team I am a part of are in the finals for our league.  We entered as the #9 seed, and had a playoff with the #8 seed to see who would play the #1 seed.

We won that first game 6-0.

Next we played the #1 seed and idk how in the hell they became the #1 seed ( i missed most of the season with a bulging disc in my back) and we killed them 4-1.  They got a red card though, for a despicable challenge on our keeper.

Tonight we had our semi-final match, a very close fought 4-3.  The opposition had a great attack, but untalented defenders and we caught them napping numerous times.

Tomorrow is ze final.  Too excited.  It'd be super epic for us to go from the #9 seed to ze championship.
