Boomers eating Lithuanias soul

The speed of the game is so much better than the nba. 45 minutes and the half is over. Time outs in nba really suck.

Flopping rule / warnings are good too. Refs probably a bit trigger happy but it's a good idea

Good. They are on a mission. I'm really hoping they make it to the finals. Lithuania did lose to Spain by 50, so not much of a measuring stick.

REVENUE! Gotta pay our NBA stars somehow.

Come on, Boomers!

Great first half lets out them to the sword. Lithuania has been a thorn in the boomers side for too long. Would be nice to finally send them home.

Australia playing amazing. Lithuania looking really poor on offence and defence

The American NBA stars will disagree but FIBA is so much better officiated namely less superstar calls, travels are actually enforced, and you dont get the feeling that the officials have a particular bias of wanting to extend a game (or more commonly extend series in the NBA playoffs, extend winning streaks for PR, etc).

Australia too tough for this Lithuania

Jeez Lithuania...

what an embarrassment...

What the hell happened to you guys after that good start?

Australia deserves to be in the finals. Very very impressive tournament so far.

And I won't be surprised if all 4 group A team will go into semis.

Am I crazy or does Bogut look like he could be Klay Thompson's brother? His new haircut and facial hair style really makes them look similar.

Not the best timing on your refs praising IMO. Worst reffed game so far, at least those first 10 minutes, what the hell was that?

I wrote much longer comment, but I had to delete it, because, whatever, This game is finished any way.

Valanciunas/Lithuania is a shadow of himself when playing against Gasol/Spain lately indeed. Lithuania were amazing in the last euros until the actual final, and something similar has happened again here, somehow.

Impressive Australia by the way.

2 silvers in two last Eurobaskets. Decent, can't win everything I guess, Still very disappointed.

The University of Oregon football team has to be extremely jealous of these uniforms and this court.

It looks like someone rubbed a highlighter all over the screen.

Hopefully Serbia and Croatia have a very tough and fiery game so that whoever wins will be tired when they play the Aussies in the semi-final.
