There's going to come.a point against canada about when SGA is knocking down his 20th midrange jumper of the night, where we are going to regret not taking thisse.
Should have picked Cooks over Kay ... And will Magnay even play?
Will need Exum and McVeigh to play the lights out ... who else is capable of creating their own shot ... not Patty anymore ... 1 from 13 against China ffs
Doesn't matter what they are planning with this line up ...It seems pretty clear from the selections that Reath will be playing at 4. Hence no Cooks and including Magnay. It makes sense given the size of other teams and Reaths lack of strength inside. So would seem Magnay will play when Landale is off and Kay will back up Reath, with the odd small ball lineup.
Sacking Goorjian?hopefully its the reset we need.
Sacking Goorjian?
Thybulle and Cooks are 27 and 28 and in their prime ... but instead we take four players clearly past their prime ... Kay should never have been selected ... was past it two years ago tbh

Sacramento Kings Summer League team just beat Team China 101-51 and the Hornets SL beat them too ...
Puts the Boomers performances last week into perspective ... we are faarked!
That's the team China played against us ... basing any selection on those matches is a farce ... we are faarked ... Thybulle and Cooks non selection is an epic fail ... we have zero muscle to defend powerful guards and forwards (Green excepted) in our line up.Is it the same team? I couldn't find where to check names and just saw that the SL one was second string junior lineup mainly under 20 but also they didn't look that old against us.
I liked cooks inside work. Reath isn't an inside beast yet. Magnay is fumbly.Well we’ve found the one person who wanted Cooks picked…
Yep. I watched every Boomers game last World Champs just like I'm sure you did HM. Cooks only played one good game and was a defensive liability against Germany in particular.People talking up Cooks muscle and ability inside. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. They guy is a lightweight who is incapable of playing against international bigs.
We were playing him at the 5 at World Champs because Landale was injured ... he is a 4 ... he is a fantastic rebounder and his ability to start the break and offensive rebound off Landale and Reath 3's would have been a great fitYep.

Cooks has the strength and mobility to compete against big forwards like Giannis and Lebron ... he isn't in their class but name one person on our selected team that canPeople talking up Cooks muscle and ability inside.

Maybe include the full quote champ ...

I'd rather any one of Dyson Daniels, Duop Reath, Will Magnay or even Josh Green with his length and strength over Cooks defending either LeBron or Giannis.Maybe include the full quote champ ...

So who is going to defend Lebron and Giannis and keep them off the boards in the team we selected ??
Both Bogut and Brad Newley said on ‘The Gold Standard Podcast’ that they would have had Cooks in their 12-man squad irrespective of whether Thybulle was selected.
But without Thybulle, you would have thought the Boomers would have put more value in someone like Cooks with his athleticism, versatility and defence.
Seriously ....I'd rather any one of Dyson Daniels, Duop Reath, Will Magnay or even Josh Green with his length and strength over Cooks defending either LeBron or Giannis.
Ok. Clearly you didn't watch the last World Champs. Cooks was horrendous on defence.Seriously ....
Was those the World Champs where Nick Kay had his player bring him to every pick and roll to exploit him on the switch....Ok. Clearly you didn't watch the last World Champs. Cooks was horrendous on defence.
Ah no. Im for thybulle over Delly buf how exactly do you fhink we can defend the low post wifh Kay and Magnay out of fhe team. Cooks was horrendous on defence at the World Champs in the low block. I mean horrendous. Even Kay was way better.Was those the World Champs where Nick Kay had his player bring him to every pick and roll to exploit him on the switch....
And Newly and Bogut don't know what they are talking about I quoted their opinion on Thybulle and X non selection
Cooks was defending the 5 at the Olympics because Goorjian only took Reath to the World Cup, with both Reath and Landale's availability this time minutes are at the 4, which makes Magnay (52% FT last NBL season) selection perplexing.
Goorjian should have taken Magnay instead of White to the World Cup ... but he shouldn't be in this team.
Lost at selection this Olympics ...
We should be taking Cooks and Thybulle instead of Magnay and Kay and we would have been equipped to defend any type of line up ... big or small... especially as at the other end McVeigh replaced Kay's 3 point shooting ... we are going to get a rude awakening against the US next week and we might win our other warm up game against Serbia and our pool game against Spain but my tip is we go 0-5 and come home with our tail between our legs ... the next Boomers coach will inherit a program and culture in pieces.
They are called centres, or otherwise known as a No 5, it's what Reath and Landale do all year longAh no. Im for thybulle over Delly buf how exactly do you fhink we can defend the low post wifh Kay and Magnay out of fhe team. Cooks was horrendous on defence at the World Champs in the low block.

Strength? No, he doesn't.Cooks has the strength and mobility to compete against big forwards like Giannis and Lebron
Genuinely ridiculous call.I'd rather any one of Dyson Daniels, Duop Reath, Will Magnay or even Josh Green with his length and strength over Cooks defending either LeBron or Giannis.
