Aus vs Canada starting

Gonna be a good one.

Too bad it’s way past @Rubashov and @Douchebag K bedtime.

What are you nuts deep into a ewe?

Its 10pm I've enjoyed the first half hopefully the boys can see the game out they've played with real commitment so far. This boomers team has something about it.

High quality first half in CAN vs AUS.

Dyson Daniels may be underrated offensively. With the Pels he was often relegated to be an off-ball player but in this tourney even against Canadas great perimeter defenders he looks solid as Australias secondary ballhandler.

As good as Daniels is defensively he just cannot seem to figure out how to slow SGA.

Shouldnt have said this. Giddey went to the bench and Daniels took a bigger role and had two turnovers right away.

 

[HermanG]

Lol at my Daniels take. Maybe has had the most tragic 5 minutes possible on offense.

DedEx saved the non-Giddey minutes.

Canada lifted their intensity the boys took the punch and have started swinging back. Anyones game in the 4th, I think we look more connected as a team than them.

Sorry for your loss.

Would be hard for ‘Stralia to make it through now.

Once Patty retires Australia is going to have zero bucket getters.

I watched the Greece v Spain game, we should be Greece and go through in second

Greece nearly won that game had Giannis sunk that 3 to tie with 30 seconds left in the game.

During the week I read an article I think it may have been about Dyson Daniels younger brother who is highly rated and more of a pure scorer than his brother but the talk was they will emerge as the number one option on the national team. (for the life of me I cant remember who the article was about) In the next world cup we will basically rely on Giddey and Landale, think we'll start Giddey, Daniels, Green, Kay and Landale. Furphy has some promise, McVeigh can score, Exum is good off the bench. Rocco Zikarsky will likely be in the squad, add to that Tyrese Proctor from Duke and Roman Siulepa who is playing NBL this year.

After this Olympics their is going to be a big changing of the guard not only are Patty, Joe and Delly expected to retire I think the entire coaching staff will be turned over too. Goorjian has already indicated this will be his last Olympics and whoever they appoint will likely bring in their own team.
