Boomers finish 12th at WC

And free throws?

I must admit I haven't crunched the numbers but one of my recollections of Australia's World Cup was our poor returns at the foul line? a fair recollection or easily debunked by stats?

Recap of the World Cup tourney now up on PnR:

2014 FIBA World Cup: USA reign supreme in Spain

As most had predicted and expected, the USA romped to a gold medal at the 2014 FIBA World Cup in outgunning Serbia 129-92. The question has to now be asked as to whether the rest of the world can still consider itself close to the Americans or have they lost some ground in this regard. When looking back at the stats, the evidence would suggest the world could be on the downside of a plateau that has been two decades in the making.

But the game should never have got to that one last shot determining the outcome. Australia choked.

"So we missed out on somewhere round 6th place by one pressured long shot that went in THIS TIME."
Nice to see I'm not the only one that noticed. People act like the Boomers were thoroughly outplayed by a better team and thus shouldn't have tanked to draw that matchup, when in fact they outplayed Turkey most of the way and lost due to an absolutely terrible shot that just happened to go in.

So we missed out on somewhere round 6th place by one pressured long shot that went in THIS TIME.

2nd to 15th is so even it's not funny, ignoring the occasional blowouts.

I hope this gets recognised by those holding the government funding purse-strings (but I'm not holding my breath on that one).

NZ beat Serbia in a warm up match.

From a NZ perspective dissappointing to see Mexico above us. And even though DR beat us..i felt we were better overall than them

if they didn't tank would have made the top 10 easy
