Well, if you are talking about this game alone, you have a point. But usually, they are nothing alike. Milos takes vocation on D constantly, is terrible defender, but is elite playmkare and passer and he doesnt excel as role player. He is also very efficient scorer and on big volume too.

Because he is a really good ballplayer who is bound to excel against less athletic/long defenders (Delly is a decent athlete, but that´s not his calling card offensively)

the Boomers have a lot of high talent players w experience (NBA and int'l pro/amateur experience.. all of it). their starters fit together nicely too esp when baynes his hitting open jumpshots.

Really enjoyed Australia's performance so far. Didn't get a chance to watch anyone else, but they seem to have a legit shot at a non-gold medal.
Also, Dellavedova was amazing against Serbia, so much energy and many inspired plays. I always thought he was the unofficial Cavs mascot or something, but the guy can actually ball.

I am so freaking excited to see Delly in a Bucks jersey this year. Dude is the perfect fit next to our core in every way. Defends, shoots, high IQ, efficient, great teammate, unselfish, terrific competitor, can play with or without the ball. Literally everything this team needs at point.
