Wow. That. Was an epic nail biter of a game, over time and all, Australia’s looking pretty good for the Olympics in 2020.

Disappointing end to the game.
Close but not close enough. Should have shut them out with D in last quarter.

Much like us with 9th, the Boomers are a 4th place specialist.


We’re still in for a chance of coming 3rd, we play the loser of the Argentina v France game to come in 3rd place if we win.
 
As is tradition with other sports on this forum, I make it my duty to duly inform everyone that I cannot stand basketball.

Golden chance for our 1st medal

Be interesting to see what Simmons brings to the team during the Olympics


I love it when Australia plays well above it’s weight in these international sports that we’re not really recognised for...We seem to have a style of play that frustrates the hell out of these so called power Countries of International sports...And I for one am looking forward to seeing how far the Boomers (hopefully with their full complement of players) can go in 2020 Olympics.

I’m not a great fan of the sport .... but this kinda caught my eye! Until today’s loss when we had in the bag ..... something with being a Jinx!

How did that go? 4th placed specialists...

Of course they did. Spain won the final easily. Could have been us...
