Olympic Game Blog: Australia vs. Brazil

[Spurs Brazil]

Barbosa is a joke. Always a choker

[Spurs Brazil]

Why Nene is on the bench?

[smaka]

Ginobili-like pass imo.

[elemento]

Leandrinho is such a dumb player it's not even funny. If we lose, it's totally on him. Took a dumb contested 3 and then made an offensive foul.

Machado is our Matt Bonner. If he is not hitting 3s, he is freaking useless. Putrid defensively.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

splitter is in there over nene and varejao

and splitter ended up having the most rebounds on his team with 8.

[ace3g]

time for some rest before the USA v France game

[Spurs Brazil]

I don't know why Machado is still on the team

[racm]

Surprisingly compe ive game. Just more proof the Spurs have a good backup PG

[justinandimcool]

Patty shot a little bit too much, but his teammates were ghost the first 3 quarters. The comeback was awesome though. Textbook press and chip away.

Brett Brown = god.

Aron Baynes > Splitter

Remember the 2001 Sixers team?

I seriously think we should sign Baynes, he would be worth about 50 bucks and he just bangs down low. Would open up holes all day long

Patty is the focal point. When he's aggressive shooting and not much creating except when letting the ball go. It's always going to make his teammates look MIA on offense.


Ultimately , 19 turnovers killed it for the Aussies.

Splitter's hook shot is still

Smh

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Pity we can't swap Varejao for Splitter. That would be pretty much perfect for us.

Are the Mills doubters disappearing now? Guy was already a legit backup PG when he came to us, now you can see how TP is mentoring and helping him improve his finishing. Mills will surprise people next season and run the second team seamlessly. He'll also have the odd 20pt game and allow Pop to give TP more rest. Mills was a great pickup for us. Mark my words.

[TE]

Damn Mills you gotta knock that down

[TE]

That was very spur-like back door cut execution tbh

Probably better than Jeremy Lin tbh

[TE]

Valiant effort by Australia.

[benfti]

One wonders what that team could do with a healthy Andrew Bogut.

[MI21]

Joe Ingles impressed me.

Portland beat writer interviewed Mills after the game:

If there were a rest of the world team based on the Olympics so far. Would tiago or patty be on it?

There are rumors Baynes will sign in Slovenia, so I guess he won't sign in NBA.

No way.

Parker/Huertas
Ginobili/Navarro/Batum
Deng/Kirilenko
P.Gasol/Scola/Kleiza
M.Gasol/Nene
