Olympics: The Boomers have exited the Olympics early after blowing a 24 point lead to Serbia in the knockout stages.
The Boomers were up 46-22 with just over six minutes left in the second quarter after a Josh Giddey layup.
“It was one of those ones where there were a few dubious calls, with a few different bounces of the ball, and without a few breakdowns defensively, we win that game easily. “I think for FIBA games with 40 minute games, you have to finish quarters and finish halves. We played a fantastic 17 minute half, but that last three minutes they cut it back from 24 to 12,” he continued.“It was almost like they could smell that blood in the water going into halftime,” former Boomers guard Brad Newley added.GOLD at 14, Boomers OUT - Olympic Wrap | 05:22
