In the MEMPHIS COMMERICAL APPEAL, Geoff Calkins writes "Marc Gasol walked off the court, silver medal draped around his neck, proud and disappointed and happy all at once. ‘It feels good to have accomplished what we accomplished,' he said, ‘but we were so close to winning the gold.' Gasol and the Spanish team gave the United States everything it could handle Sunday before losing, 118-107. Former Grizzlies star Pau Gasol had 21 points and six rebounds. Former Grizzlies sixth-man Juan Navarro had 18 points. Future Grizzlies big man Marc Gasol had 11 points and five rebounds in 23 minutes. ‘We never stopped competing,' Marc Gasol said. ‘We have a very good team. No matter what happened, we kept fighting and fighting to get back in it.'”
