2016 Olympics Boomers

[LeightonB]

Recently sat down with the Boomers Team Manager from the 2012 London Olympics, really cool to get an insight into behind the scenes of our elite basketballers, and what a top quality guy Junior is!

Interview is online here >>> bit.ly/1SdX2Wc

Excited for the 2016 Olympics, a number of our stars are well established players in their careers, like Mills, Bogut, Ingles and looking forward to watching Ben Simmons, already projected to go Number One in 2016 NBA draft, it'll be amazing to see him up against other world basketball powers next year. All healthy, everyone on the 2016 Boombers team will have, or soon will have, a minimum of NBA Summer League experience.

I don't reckon Bogut will shoot 0-7 again! The team will play into great form I'm sure.

for sure. First game playing with each other for many of them, and Drew wasn't getting many looks at GS anyway, so would be rusty. I can see us looking to him far more than at GS

so more than none then

Bogut hasn't really had to create his shot for years, so it's not like you can just turn it back on. It will be interesting to see what they do with him.

Without Mills our offence can stagnate. Exum needs more burn, no reason he should play under 20 minutes if mills and delly aren't playing

Foxsport at it's best

"NBA star Matthew Dellavedova added 11 points"

Gazey said anytime they have an NBA star playing for them (Zoran Dragic) they are going to be really hard to beat..

Come on Gazey

Come on Gazey

gaze proves that you can be a legend of the game but know nothing about it outside of your own backyard. zoran aint no star.

foxsports news just said the boomers finished the forgettable tour with a XX-YY win over slovenia.

 

[peternorth]

lol

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Bad news on exum. May have done acl. Really hope that's not the case

 

[Special Agent Utah]

Looks like a certain ACL. Terrible news for Dante

Absolute tragedy with how he seemed to be improving.

 

[djrossie16]

Looks like patty is in butts saved perhaps.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Glad that Patty has decided to play in the qualifiers, could be crucial with our sketchy form. Hoping for no more injuries...

Anyone heading to the qualies?

Yep, I'm going with my partner and son Saturday night. I cannot wait to see Bogues destroy NZ on defence.

 

[Fitzwah]

I'm there too. Paid some good $$$ for half decent seats.
Really looking forward to it.

Yeah on my way now. Will probs miss the first quarter of the girls game as I didn't realise they changed start time.

 

[Quivorir]

Pretty stoked with my seats. Got here just in time to see team walk out too so email lied about change of time.

What's the score?

What's the score?

29 aus 17 nz. Both teams missing easy shot but nz are incredibly inaccurate.

Edit: it's half time
