The match between France and Team USA in this Olympic Games final was certainly spectacular. The players had fun as did the fans, but so did the referees.
One of them spoke about this game.
Even if many fans accuse France of having benefited from home refereeing during these Olympic Games, the fact is that the officials did rather well in this competition.
The FIBA rules clearly made the fans happy, to the point where some hope that the NBA will take inspiration from them in the future. We are thinking in particular of this rule concerning assists.
An honest referee in the Olympic Games final
The final was not marred by a scandal, unlike the one at Les Bleues, which is why the referees are rather satisfied with their performance.
They will also keep a positive memory, like Antonio Conde, who was the official in charge of the final last Saturday.
In an interview for MARCA radio, reported by BasketNews, this is what Conde explains.

Antonio Conde: “The Olympic Games are always something very special.
I come from Tokyo without the fans, and I fought to be here, and I had a lot of fun.
Steph Curry’s three-pointer on Victor Wembanyama was spectacular, they are really special players. To see LeBron do all that at 40 years old for example, it’s almost shocking.”
“When the moment comes for us, the referees, the priority is to take it as another game and not as a final because it can create confusion for the mind.
It’s when the days go by and you remember the game that you get goosebumps.”
Even the referees had fun with this game, especially Curry’s three-pointer on the Blues’ defense.
It’s important for them too, even though there’s obviously a lot of pressure on the officials in such a match.
We can say that those in the final did their job well, although there’s always room for improvement.
Just like the players and the fans, the referees want to have fun in such a final.
Mission accomplished for Antonio Conde and his colleagues, who avoided a big controversy in the process.
A good tournament for them.
