Many forget that Puerto Rico beat the USA team on two previos ocasiones (the ones made of college playes).
Once in México and the Pan American games in Cuba and in the World Cup in Argentina in 1990. It hardly made the news in United States but it did shook the United States Basketball Commitee.
2 years later the formed the Dream Team for the 1992 Olympics.

It was so embarrassing for the Americans that you don't see any videos of this game in YouTube channel from NBC sports.

Such an incredible game. US basketball dominance has been historic. That made PR’s accomplishment even bigger. To beat those who created the game and in such fashion, it’s amazing. Qué viva Puerto Rico, puñeta!!!

Yo vi este juego cuando estaba en Kwuait, éramos sobre 50 puertorriqueños y casi la misma cantidad de estadounidenses. Ellos se comenzaron a salir de la caseta en donde estábamos viendo el juego. Al terminar eramos solo puertorriqueños que porpoco tumbamos la caseta celebrando... jajaja que recuerdos.

Just listening to the NPR "On the Media" piece on this game, came to give it a look and WOW. That play at 41:00 belongs on every all-time highlight reel ever. And he didn't even celebrate or grandstand, just got back on D. That's some effing basketball

51:46 "Hey, Roberto!... Que nó puñeta!" 😂😂

[shawndamccormick]

I would love to have hear some commentators during this game. Can't tell what going on during some of the more dramatic moments because the wrong camera was on, lol. Guess that's what highlights are for. I heard a really good one this morning on the radio, I felt like I was watching the game. In fact that's what brought me here. I'm 💯% USA born woman and I'm all for USA but Cheers for this 04 Puerto Rican B-ball team! They straight owned this game. One of the best games I've ever had the pleasure of watching. Mad respect! 🏀👏👏👏👏👏
