Boomers v Argentina (spoiler)
Paul, I agree that Ingles and Newley can't guard the top rung of threes at international level. But what is Brown going to do? As far as I know there is no-one out there who has stepped forward, so we're just going to have to make do. Maybe Bose can be the guy down the line, but he obviously didn't impress Brown enough to make the roster for this Argentina series, so he must be a long way off what we need.

Argies had a go at it last nite. But the single most important force was Mills with some little gems and masterwork.

Yeah, it was a good run by the Argentinians late in the game to make it look respectable. Scatman only got it going once the Boomers switched off though.
I've changed my view of this series now that I've seen just how bad a team Argentina sent. We needed better competition to really test our fringe players and see if they have what it takes. This mob would struggle to beat some NBL sides.
I hope Larry Sengstock makes it clear to the Argentines that sending a C grade team with no big men to Australia is unacceptable. It will help if the Boomers send them home with a 50 point loss in game three, just to really embarass them.

and the answer is.....
