What if, instead of to the court, the Gasols took to the pitch instead? What if the creativity of Ricky Rubio was used in a midfield instead of a backcourt? Or what if the tenacity of Rafael Nadal or Ruben Fernández was harnessed on grass instead of clay or the roads.
What if Spain’s best athletes played soccer? It’s a truly scary thought.
