Finally, in the men's Basketball World Cup final held on the evening of the 15th, Spain relied on Rubio to score 20 points and beat Argentina 95-75 to win the championship. Gasol in the array became the second person in the history of winning the NBA and the world cup in the same year.

Mark & middot; Gasol, who led Spain to dominate the world cup, also led the Toronto Raptors to win the NBA championship this year.

In addition, according to the website of Spain's "El Pais" on September 14, the two national teams of Spain and Argentina have similar passion and fighting spirit. After experiencing the trough and the alternation of new and old almost at the same time, they are destined to return to the peak in the same world competition.
According to the report, neither of the two teams was the most favored favorite to win the title before the game, nor did they have a starry paper lineup, but they defeated one powerful opponent after another with the same tenacity and stability. Spain has Rubio and little Gasol, and Argentina has campazo and Scola. Both sides have inherited the heritage of strong teams from their respective 'golden generation' and maintained the overall impact by supplementing the new generation of players.
