Man what a bucket from Giddey. What PG is defending that?

Boomers need to maintain the rage

Holy ****. Patty Mills just completely tore up Serbia.

Serbia getting smoked. They also have issues with a lack of perimeter guys who can create. However, Topic, Drezgic etc. look pretty apt. So that problem has been addressed. Btw, will Jokic be excluded from the next international tournament? The current coach doesn't want players over 30 on the team.

Exum called for an unsportsmanlike on a clear flop

This is goddamn embarrassing

Wow. If Giddey can keep playing like this for OKC next year...they'd be title favorites.

Patty's making some insanely difficult shots.

That’s some bad acting

Get the **** up you bitch. Throw him out of the game

Serbia 'The 3 Second Floppers'

Pathetic flop by Avramovic, he should have gotten a tech or whatever the punishment for such things is in FIBA.

Ι don't think I remember a team Serbia before that has literally no small forward on the roster. Like, your typical 6'7-6'8 Serbian who could shoot 3s and help with the rebounds, they always used to have 2 or 3 of those

UcanUwill · Post #176 » by **UcanUwill** » Tue Aug 6, 2024 1:13 pm

Avramovic will be booed the entire game now. What a flopper, wow.

Kalinic would be that.

yeah exactly
I guess Pesic also felt the need thats why he started Davidovac, but the guy is just not for this level.

Serbia should still win it from here, but proud of the Aussie lads for giving it one hell of a shot.

Boomers half court offense don’t look great, seems to be fast pace or nothing

Who wins the quarterfinal games on Tuesday?
