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

[Westy Bogan]

Opals and Hockeyroos have been shockingly bad.

 

[Satan]

Taurisi angry pills

 

[danielnajdek]

Taurasi has been watching Campazzo

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Well if we have 40 turnovers for the game (on track after 10 in first quarter) I'm going to go out on limb and say we won't win.

 

[Westy Bogan]

Could Michelle Timms come out of retirement?

 

[Cyber_punk]

Ok so what’s everyone having for dinner then??

Marinated Lamb Loin chops for us with pan fried garlic and butter infused Broccolini coupled with cabbage cooked in the same juices with Roast potatoes!

Got to have something to look forward to in the next 3 hrs!

Dunno about dinner yet but I'm eating lunch right now, fis, peas and green beans

Chocolate donut straight after. (hey I exercised a lot already)

Michelle Timms and Lauren Jackson aren't walking through that door

 

[Chism]

She is married to Penny Taylor???



Never knew that not that there is anything wrong with it and each to their own.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Lol can we shoot

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Are Gazey and Maher going off with the Opals taking a hammering? Muppets.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I like Rachel Sporn as a commentator. I've heard her a lot over the years with her being based in Adelaide.

But when the opals aren't going well rather than an anger, there is a depression in her voice about their play and progress.

 

[Rankine2Rachele]

Firing blanks at the moment.

Timms is exactly what this team needs sadly.

Yeah first I've heard of that as well.

And another TO.......

If you are going to take that outside shot at least have enough court awareness to step back 2 inches further to make it 3 instead of a 2... amateurish

Hey KG made a career out of hitting 2 point shots with his heel on the 3 point line haha

 

[Westy Bogan]

Give the ball to Donavan Mitchell

 

[HK_Hawk]

Oh BRILLIANT play, just drive into 3 taller players under the basket

 

[Westy Bogan]

Can we just give up on the fast break???

 

[JP Sauce]

Looking a lot better this quarter at least. Defence has lifted, but gotta hope they miss shots.

 

[NSWCROW]

Is there a more infuriating play from your team than the " Charge at the rim at a million miles an hour with a defender all over you and throw up a *ed left-handed off-balance layup " like mitchell did before ????


Was frustrating enough having to watch the 36ers do it every week

With my 2 kids we need dinner ready to go by 6pm! I never have a late lunch cause it *s tea up! I have smoko at work at 10am most days but skip lunch at 1 anticipating a good dinner at around 6 or just before.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Be lucky to not lose by 25+

 

[NSWCROW]

Embarrassing play that

 

[Chism]

Kayla George is just useless. Runs up and down in the 1 spot most of the time and does nothing with her size. Seriously over rated for anyone that actually does rate her but she is not alone in this current Opals team.

 

[danielnajdek]

Damn she's so dumb. What a soft third foul.
