Summer Tokyo 2021 Basketball Thread - August 7 When We Got Bronze

[Brad Goodman]

Let's be real no one was ever gonna stop USA except themselves, depending on their own mood and hunger.

All they have to do is turn up.

I reckon France can cause some damage if they get through.

But yes, US still gonna be paying $1.20 and rightfully so.

0-11 in medal games now for the Boomers. When do we stop talking about them as being unlucky and start asking if they are just chokers? 0-11 is really bad.

How many of those games were we clear favourites for?

 

[peternorth]

Stiff to draw USA before the final,
We lost to a better team.

Don’t lump this team in with teams of the past.

 

[peternorth]

another missed dunk

 

[SA HAWK]

2nd rate?

KD, Dame, Tatum, Booker, Jrue just to name a few…

Compared to who they could have sent.

If we can get our population within 250 million we will win

I am willing to do my bit by procreating with the women's beach volleyball team.

 

[Neese]

lol bitch slap

 

[Plugger35]

Full time can't come quick enough for the Boomers now.

Pop must be thinking why the * did we sign him up for the Spurs.

 

[smasha]

We are sports mad,imagine 300 mill,nah.
Rather us lose close ones and have the quality of life we have.
We will beat these yanks soon.

If Simmons feels patriotic in 2024 and cam shoot then include him also.

Simmons can stick it..

 

[FRUMPY]

its a bit like playing against your kid and letting them beat you and they tell you to play normal, so you do and smash them

 

[peternorth]

79-55

Gotta keep margin within that

you take the tall one, ill take the shorter one

 

[Nuggetz]

I've never want to see Goorj coach australia again after these olympics. *ing delly on the floor over Matisse. Jesus.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

In 3 years time I want Delly, Sobey and Gorjian gone.
Bring in Longley or Gaze as coach along with Giddey and Cotton.

If Simmons feels patriotic in 2024 and cam shoot then include him also.

Simmons should be blacklisted permanently.

You must be new here, Australia are chokers in everything, even when they are playing the USA.... in Basketball

 

[DJ75]

Our entire offence is Landale. Where are our leaders? Mills? Ingles?
Just went in to their shell. That's why we haven't won a medal yet.

 

[bourbons]

Is it choking tho if you just keep coming up against better and higher rated teams?

Pretty much the case for all of those 11.

 

[smasha]

Like the Women’s team,it’s our shooting letting us down,we have matched USA defense wise just not getting those balls in the basket.

 

[Brad Goodman]

2024 will be interesting - Ingles, Delly, Baynes and Mills will all be retired by then you would think. Exum to step up and lead?

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Joe Ingles taking 5 shots late into the last is not good enough

 

[Satan]

clear the benches rest the players
