3 points up and a chance to make it 5 but we missed.

Bugger.

 

[Gak Attack]

Is giddey most infuriating player to watch for every good thing he does 2 bad things after, he must have had about 8 or 9 turnovers

7 but i reckon possibly all in the second half. He ended up being a -13 even after being a good part of the 24 point lead.

We had to go all in for the 3 to make the win.

Thats my thoughts as well. We had plenty of time to create a good 3 play.. u go for the win so u shoot a 3 and rebound a 2 if u miss... going OT with a 2 is just trying to stay in the game for the sake of it. Also Landale was fouled out.

Goorjian an ordinary coach, played a better style of basketball under Lemanis

 

[Royces Hart]

Surely somewhere in Australia there is a big dominant centre?

Yeah he’s playing C grade ball on a Tuesday night, why didn’t we think of selecting him.

Idiot.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Hate sleeping when disappointed like that. Can't stay up till 2:30 for the Polo though

Hes really young and hasnt been able to play PG all year at OKC due to Shai. Hes meant to stuff up... its on the coaches to utilise them efficiently

Goorj game plan late Mills and Giddey to play between themselves and only they can shoot

Where’s Exum ? Or McVeigh ? Just so silly

Keep blaming McVeigh for the loss with your obsessive NBL grudges.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Agree. Landale was shit tonight but knew the odds were very much in their favor in OT without him.

Thought defensively Landale was ok, but offensively was poor

 

[Gift]

Its actually not Mills or Giddeys fault. The game became way slower after HT which is the speed at which Jokic excels at. We needed to probably only play one of mills/giddey at PG and a combo of Exum/Daniels/Mcveigh/Reath/Landale to win the game.

Having two guards that were getting beat 1 on 1 = turnovers and iso ball.

 

[eddiesmith]

Keep blaming McVeigh for the loss with your obsessive NBL grudges.

Keep thinking he could have won the game when he choked when it mattered.

Showed time and time again the gulf between NBA and NBL players.

 

[Wickzki]

Goorjian's gameplan was the same as Tokyo. Pretty weak with a stronger interior play and the end of prime FIBA Patty to bail him out.

The non-selection of Thybulle has hurt us all tournament, doubly so with how poor Green played all tournament.

 

[Royces Hart]

Was open to a take a 3 several times but didn’t even entertain the idea. Can shoot it, must be lacking confidence in his shot at the moment.

Then it's a combination of Goorjian and Mills and Giddey's faults. IF the game is too slow you need your primary ball carriers to speed the game up. Instead, they were happy to play right into their hands.

The only time we moved the ball well in the second half (consistently) was when Exum was running the ball and for whatever reason he wasn't one of Goorjian's hand chosen favorites.

Jokic was starting to lag up the court toward the end of 2nd quarter, needed to keep up the high tempo basketball

Yep, Josh Green really proved that.

 

[largebus]

I just look forward to the day when Goorj gets fired and we magically start beating everyone that isn't the US.

So how do u speed up the game when they couldnt get past their defenders without turning it over to create a pass for someone to either drive or shoot a 3?

 

[JT_the_Man]

Still in some weird stunned disbelief, on a lot of fronts with that game.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Yep, Josh Green really proved that.

His performance at the Olympics was a mystery, he might as well not of turn up

Needed the ball in Exum’s hands
