1 won't do it after that, just give me the bottle

Ok bender

 

[FlowersByIrene]

**** the olympics. We were robbed

 

[king90]

I don't know if I can get to sleep now, absolutely shattered, the last call just defies belief

 

[Carl Hooper]

Yup

da goat

 

[Jukesy85]

Maybe because the ref decided the game at the end? Just maybe.

Every team has calls go for and against them, Aus got some lucky calls during the game too which I'm sure Spain could have pointed out at costing them the game if they had lost (same going if they didn't get that last call).

Piss off flog

Are you blind deaf and dumb or just dumb.

You sir are an idiot

Geez show some class people

 

[rocker_oz33]

I've settled down now.

We can only control what we can control. Anderson had a free look. Half a chance with less than 3 seconds is enough let alone a free one. Pretty disappointed, should have been said in the timeout. You get the chance you take the shot.

Agree Anderson should had the shot.
Insteed of looking for the boomers gaz,Fyfe or danger in mills.
Unlucky in the end fuuu ump.

That ref made john harvey look good

Who's dat the world ump ref?

 

[Inferno]

**** basketball. **** the Olympics

 

[Chronz]

Simmons Exum and Thon 2020 should be good.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Don't know what to say. Just a shame that the game was decided by the sort of call that even Dwayne Wade circa 2006 NBA Finals would've been embarrassed to receive instead of a great moment from one of the players.

Also, watching that last play again, it was actually a pretty decent one. Just unlucky that Rubio got lucky with the reach and knocked it loose. We had a couple of options there if he hadn't.

So devastating.

Hopefully Serbia can beat the US to soften the blow a little bit.

About as much chance of that happening as SOJ making the NBA

 

[red+black]

I'm over it already and looking forward to #pyeongchang2018

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Fell asleep at half time Probably just as well looking at the score and reading the comments here

Bad luck Boomers.

 

[2006_Eagles]

USA are going to need to iso the win as they have in every game

Terrible basketball 'team'

 

[2006_Eagles]

Am I the only one who loves seeing women's teams sitting together in the stands?

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Shitty D again

Bogut you ****head, Gasol hits those

Yeah, but Gasol can actually play.

 

[BG32]

those that stayed up and watched how you doin???

 

[Whit3y]

those pesky refs cost us in the womens game and in the mens

we were destined for gold in both

 

[RookiePick]

Well that caps off a crappy weekend of sport. Glad i went to bed as i would be fuming otherwise by the sounds of it!

 

[King Elvis]

Gutted. Just gutted.

Rewound to watch "the foul". Contact happens with 7.0 seconds, ref blows whistle with 5.4 seconds to go.

Deadset ******* cheat.

Waited to see if it was going to drop before calling it.

Incredibly dubious.

The Spainard took a massive dive; yet again.

 

[danielnajdek]

Robbed. That foul call was bullshit. Guarantee you if that was USA instead of us it would've been a no call. Deserved the bronze only to be robbed by a ref.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Worst weekend of sport.... EVER.
