Securing Aussie Tisse was masterstroke, ridiculously impactful defender at FIBA level, gave Boomers elite athleticism they'd lacked, alongside re-emergence of Exum, awfully impressive against Team USA & closing 4Q on Slovenia. Can't forget importance of Landale or Kay, either.

Awestruck, Patty wasn't leaving Tokyo without that medal, put entire country on his back, delivered all-timer across any Aussie Sport. After such agonising defeats in Rio & China, Boomers Golden Generation so richly deserved this moment. Just sucks Baynes & Bogut weren't there.

They did it. Our Boomers finally got their Olympic Medal. Won by Mills 42-9a, yet earned over decade - with Ingles, Delly & Baynes - enriching that culture of passion, pride, perseverance. Hard to capture just how much this means to past, present & future of Aussie Basketball.

Even more than NBA Champion Elijah Bryant.

Okay, now we're talking.

Agreed, but don't think those are Peak, rather iAthletic, the same custom-print company that provides a lot of Boomers gear on their site. Rubbed me the wrong way when they began to sell these lazily designed tourist souvenirs for $120 in the lead up to Team USA in Melbourne.

These Boomers uniforms aren't great, albeit result of Asics outfitting entire Australian Olympic team. Still, area where they continue to fumble commercially. Insane that the Nike jersey isn't available. Got you covered if you want overpriced, generic block-font gear, though.

That said, if you sit Giannis AND Middleton, then throw sample size completely out the window, it's 120 beautiful minutes of Jrue Big Money Holiday becoming a human flamethrower... Per 36: 33-5-11 on 60/55/64 (+11.9) 70.8 eFG% SEVENTY POINT EIGHT.

Yikes. Quite literally, couldn't have picked a worse time to tweet that... Khris: 14-8-3 on 6/27 (-24) Jrue: 13-5-3 on 6/16 (-24) New Per 36, without Giannis: Khris: 27-6-6 on 48/43/92 (-4.0) Jrue: 25-5-8 on 53/47/74 (+1.6) Again, these Bucks games aren't concrete evidence.

Love how NBA marketing strategy is "bust myths about League Pass" rather than actually fix the issues with their product that has created these 'misconceptions'. Desktop version is borderline unusable. Delayed sound, not equalized during game breaks. NOBODY wants polls/trivia.

Damn, that's tough... Except, you still would've made the playoffs if Todd Gurley didn't accidentally score a TD, Robert Woods doesn't fumble the last touch of his worst game, or @HendoHoops decides to play a kicker in Week 7.

That's treason, sir.
