Totally biased, History is always written by winners. Spain should have won the final.

It is a nice documentary but it hides that the final against Spain was a thief: USA team did more than 20 travelling situations and the referees did nothing but penalized Spanish team with technical fouls as everyone can find on Youtube.

This was admitted on BasketNews months after the final by Chantal Julien, one of the referees of USA-Germany game. Chantal said "they could not penalize travelling with every Kobe Bryant's dribbling" and also that "the final was a shame".

It is specially funny that the documentary does not show the last seconds of the final game when Juan Carlos Navarro did intentionally travelling with 4 or 5 steps in order to protest while he was looking into the eyes of the referee.

By the other hand, it is nice to see how some of the best players of NBA History was scared by players without NBA experience as Carlos Jiménez, Álex Mumbrú or 17 y.o. Ricky Rubio.
