Didn't see much out of David Andersen, but Patrick Mills who will be a sophomore at Saint Mary's was impressive. He seemed faster with the ball than Chris Paul and drove through the US defense a lot.

I turned this on, and as soon as I did, I saw Andersen have a turnover lol.

Not very impressive in my eyes. He ended up fouling out late in the 4th, but the Austrailians hung in there w/o Bogut.
The Mills kid did look like a good player.

Carlos Arroyo also did well against Team USA, i wouldn't put much into it.

Against a completely different squad and different coaching staff. Mark my words keep an eye on Patrick Mills next year in college that much speed can be devastating.
Chris Sheridan said this:
Backup Aussie point guard Paddy Mills was a blur, the fastest player I've seen since Allen Iverson was a rookie. He plays Division I ball in the U.S. for St. Mary's (Calif.), where he just finished his freshman season, and he told ESPN.com he has run 400 meters in 49 seconds.
