SF: Australia vs Serbia

[usagre]

Same old Australia, getting blown out in yet another Olympic semifinal.

Coach ,so what Serbs are doing in defense that Lithuania did not managed ?

We went with big lineup again on defense. We are not switching on defense, just running over and under one the screens. We closed the loop screen, which is basically their one trick pony for Mills, he gets of 70% from it. We are not pressuring the ball so much and not diving in the passing lanes. And the key is that the paint is locked, and if the ball goes in it won't come out. That is the key.

FINALLY!!! A 3 second call. That bearded dude lives in the lane!

[Boomer]

Boomers look nervous, mills is the only one backing himself shooting

[Taddis]

Lithuanian commentators on TV mostly blames Australia bigs for not hedging/switching to screens on Teodosic

[CoachZ]

He was clearly embarrassed by what Dellavdova did to him in the first game. I expected a response and a bounce back game but this is off the charts.

We took them lightly, knowing how they performed in the past. The whole team intensity was off, so was Teo. Probably still jet lagged

Also Djordjevic is a grudge guy I told you

Let's see if Australia can step up, Serbia have them covered well and truely at the moment. Need to get this under 10 by the half

Its hard to beat a team two times in such tournaments. Thats why Spain loses to everyone in group stage. Smart.

[Beez]

10 points Australia? Really? I'm afraid the Aussie peaked in that 54 point first half against USA. Their career NBA backups are not used to playing these kind of minutes. I hope Australia can prove me wrong, but I don't see it.

[Boomer]

Joe ingles has been so so bad today

[Boomer]

Serbia look like a different team from the first one. All credit too them. They have been much better then us

[Dtown]

Serbia have completely taken away the backdoor cut and Australia looks lost on offense without it.
