Canada exploded to a 10-0 lead on aggressive takes off the dribble and led 12-2 when Spain bridged the quarters with a 32-2 run by capitalizing on lax Canadian defensive transitions, savvy ball movement, solid marksmanship from the perimeter, countless runouts, utter dominance of the boards and clever entry passes into the post.
