Opals and Boomers at the Paris Olympics

[ElwoodBlues1]

USA vs France in the Mens final...Serbs took it up to the USA but copped what they gave us with a big comeback from the Americans led by Steph Curry banging in 36 points from the carpark and Embiid had the better of Jokic.
France got over the flashy Germans with their bigs led by Wemby and Gobert playing some great defense and restricting the Germans gun guard Schroder who has been a great performer boht in the Olympics and at the world champs.
Id expect the USA to take care of the home team and record another Gold Medal but its taken probably the best USA/NBA team ever selected to get them there. Serbia and Germany will be a game worth watching for Bronze, very even, just fancy Jokic and Bogdan B who played well vs the USA will get the Serbs home...
Its appears the Aus team are hunting for a new coach and the younger players want a NBA coach next Olympics...Scott Roth from the JackJumpers has also been mentioned..

Need to pick players, particularly younger players, on merit not keep going back to blokes who are now unfortunately past it.

The USA has now won nine from nine against the Opals at the Olympics … and they probably didn’t pick their strongest squad.

The girls have a chance to bring home dirty gold.

Congratulations to the Opals on their hard fought win over Belgium for the Bronze.

Belgium certainly wasn’t in my likely medal chances but they really gave it a good crack.
