Unless you hate joy and smiling, you should watch the above Serge Ibaka scrum that followed Spain’s win over France in the EuroBasket final on his 22nd birthday. It’s five minutes of pure Ibaka happiness, with him excitedly thanking his teammates, the awesome Lithuanian fans, and his Congolese fans who understood his decision to play for Spain. In typical Thunder fashion, he was humble when asked about his five blocks in five minutes (!!!) in the first half and, when asked about possibly blocking LeBron James next summer at the Olympics, offered the following understatement: “If one day I block LeBron, I’ll be happy. It is something not easy.”
