Jazz players in the Olympics

Strange box score at the half. USA has 18 more FG attempts and Australia is shooting 68% from the field. USA is at 48% from the 3pt line, and just 37% from the field overall. Australia has 12 TOs, the USA has just 5.

lol at the quote from that american womens player

"People forget, other teams play basketball too"

Patty Mills unstoppable. Delly with another very good game. Thank goodness for Melo. This game should end the discussion about whether the US can be beat. Ingles pretty quiet. Almost as many fouls as points.

I was rooting for the Aussies.

I thought you can live in USA?

Our USA team really shoots way too many 3 point shots. I like the 3 point shot, but when you have such a huge athletic and size advantage it's embarrassing how many we jack up. Main reason I hate Klay on Team USA. Yeah he is a great player, but he cant get enough shots on Team USA to develop a rhythm and he can't drive or playmake as good as Gordon. Team USA would be much better off with Hayward.

We need one more scorer. Was hoping it would be Jingles but he's playing with new daddy brain

He had a pretty big exhibition game before Olympics began, but yeah they need another guy other than Delly and Mills to score. Broekhoff can sometimes get really hot from 3 and Anderson showed some good shooting though. I expect to see Anderson still on the national team in Tokyo.

dunno, Andersen is getting on a bit he must be 34 or so by now Add Exum and Simmons tho ...

Who is Thon going to play for? I know he lived in Australia for a while but is from Sudan.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Humphries from UK is an Aussie too, right? Is he ever going to be any good?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Overall I think Australia is going to be the most consistent country outside the US. They seem to have the most steady pipeline of talent.

i'm pretty sure citezenship wise he's classed as Australian.

After USA x Austrália

So Paul George has a sook about the "dirty" style of play today ... Really ?? Lame ...

This is like saying Bill Gates would be much more wealthier if I slipped a $20 bill in his pocket...

Brazil lost to Croatia. As predicted.

I agree .. evaluating Bill Gates net wealth is a really good comparison for the complex machinations of a high level basketball team
