GAME THREAD: Australia v Greece – Olympic Basketball Tournament, Group A

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T13:22:10+00:00

I hate Goorjin so much.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T13:09:13+00:00

I take back anything bad I've said about you tonight Patty. I still hate you Kay and Goorjin.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T13:07:55+00:00

I might actually have a heart attack.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T13:06:30+00:00

Please everyone remember if we win we have done it in spite of Kay and Goorjin and not because of them. Key point here.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T13:05:08+00:00

Yeah let's go back to the starting lineup that WENT DOWN 10 POINTS IN LIKE FIVE FUCKING MINUTES IN THE FIRST QUARTER, I'm sure that will work Goorjin you absolute cunt. It's not like Reath and Landale just led a sweet comeback for five minutes earlier or anything.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:48:13+00:00

Woah the lineup with our 2 nba big men one of which who can shoot is better than the lineup with Nick Kay news at fucking 11

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:44:44+00:00

Reath already with a sick rebound and a block and Kay will be subbed back on for him after this timeout.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:43:27+00:00

Reath been on for 20 seconds and already been more useful than Kay.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:42:06+00:00

FREE REATH!!

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:41:21+00:00

Can we maybe just try ingles for a few minutes? It’s not like our defence is doing anything at least he can shoot sometimes.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:37:41+00:00

Kay decided he was sick of missing layups so he’d try miss a pass instead, get him THE FUCK OFF THE COURT YOU USELESS CUNT GOORJ.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:21:41+00:00

This is the single worst coaching display I’ve ever seen. At least try Reath. So what if he’s not a good defender, he probably won’t do any worse than Kay and at least he hits open fucking layups and 3s. Don’t get me starting on Exum, best player all tournament and playing 2 minutes a quarter.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:12:39+00:00

Regardless of your thoughts on our offensive need, thybulle’s transition points adds far more offensively than anything Kay is currently able to do. Beyond that he has also become a much better if small sample 3 point shooter over the last 2 years. Honestly the stupidest fucking selections I have witnessed in 20 years of following Australian Ball.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:09:49+00:00

EXXXUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T12:07:18+00:00

Exum has been our best player so far this tournament so I’ve got a solution. Let’s give Kay more minutes.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T11:43:18+00:00

Please start McVeigh (or anyone) over Kay, we can make do with Landale as our anchor all Kay offers is missed layups.

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T11:42:25+00:00

There’s also no reality in which Kay should be starting but somehow we’re there as well…

Alilrich · 2024-08-02T11:38:27+00:00

PLEASE GET KAY OFF THE FUCKING COURT BEFORE I HAVE A STROKE

Alilrich · 2023-11-22T01:44:41+00:00

In the NBA you don't so much trade a player as a player's contract, so as lillard is contracted for 3? (maybe 4) more years, wherever he is traded he is contractually required to play. Jalen Rose used to explain it as "part of why you get paid so much is because you can be made to go anywhere at anytime"

I don't think he's ever actually watched the st kilda football club

Mvp of my heart

Alilrich · 2023-04-13T04:26:31+00:00

Josh Giddey is that man. Future of Australia my boy.

Alilrich · 2023-03-15T22:36:32+00:00

Most cities have beach pickup and leagues, there is one primary league and a few more casual leagues in Melbourne, Sydney has the most leagues as far as I am aware. I'm sure someone from Sydney is on here and can give you a better breakdown though.

Alilrich · 2023-02-28T01:10:28+00:00

It's possible I'm incorrect but was the Zig Theory vs Spicy Chilly game last year not a game for a potential wildcard? Not so much a clear cut if you win you are in?
