as he mentioned in his first post

Yes Ater Majok had a very nice blocked shot and then a sweet face-up jumper on the other end. Looks like Brown is giving every player a good run. Not the easiest to watch but will update again soon.

China up 9 late in first half.

China is applying the famous "Goorjian" defense that even the Team USA have acknowledge as the toughest they have encountered

Down 1, Forman has a 3 rim out, Ogilvy makes a steal flicks to Delly, inside to Forman, and one. Up two with seconds left

Yep - big play by AJ!

Come on Boomers!

Boomers win by 1

By 2 I mean

Boy Goorj won't be happy - beaten by a junior Australian team!

My chinese isn't the best - and my beef stroganoff isn't too good either - but I think Australia defeated the Singapore Slingers in the red by a point or two. Exciting stuff. If anyone wants to translate the games, it'd be greatly appreciated. ;-)

At least I could watch it! Some big steals, offensive rebounding and a couple of late threes got the Boomers over the line.
Looking forward to seeing a box score (even if it is in Chinese!).

box score?

The picture was very hard to watch and the Chinese commentary was almost unbearable but I think I have a grip on the final few plays.

With less than 55 seconds to go the Boomers throw it in and find Oscar Forman with a decent look but has it just rim out. Chinese then use up some time and with 20 seconds to go shoot a missed three. Missed the following few seconds but when the clip resumed China had the ball and Ogilvy picked off a pass at the top which he flicked to Delly on a scattered three on one who then found Forman down low for a very soft and one. Terrible foul from the Chinese player. Forman makes the bucket and from what I could gather, despite a time out the Chinese miss the game winner with 5 seconds to score from a half way in-bounds.

Box score should be up on the Chinese website within the next 30-60min if yeterday's experience is anything to go by.

The last Boomer's score as you outlined Johnson is spot-on.

However after a time-out ad advanced throw-in in their front court, the Boomers used a foul immediately with 5.1 seconds left. The next inbound pass came in and the Chinese didn't even get a shot away as we stole it from them after the inbounds pass.

Offensive rebounding (a surprise considering our efforts against NZ) and a couple of big threes down the stretch helped get the Boomers in touch with a chance.

So who of the following is likely to be apart of a Boomers team at the World Champs:

Stephen Weigh (doubtful, next Olympics)
Forman (No chance)
Harvey (Can shoot so a chance)
Dellavedova (Big chance at PG)
Martin (zero chance)
Schenscher (small chance due to depth)
Rush (like him, maybe a spot there)
Majok (showed a few things tonight, wait and see)
Crawford (unlikely although maybe the best defender)
Holmes (no chance, should not be there now)
Neville (unlikely due to depth but is 7-2 and young)

Only Dellavedova and Harvey in my eyes seem any chance of securing a spot. And both are unlikely.

Mills / Gibson
Newley / Ingles
Barlow / Worthington
Andersen / Nielsen
Bogut / Jawai

AJ is a big chance to the Boomers team at the 2010 World Champs. I like his game and ability to score and make things happen.

BA game recap: http://linky.com.au/sxgwv

China seemed to have 6 from their 2008 Olympic squad including two from past NBA rosters: Wang Zhizhi started and Sun Yue came off the bench for 28 minutes.

An auto-translate of the boxscore reveals some amusing results: Delavau Cordova, Oscar Fuao Man, Pi Teke Crawford, Oje Falvey, Village Eminem - Rush, Stephen dimension, Helms, Eteerma York, Rotary Snow Fall.

Ogilvy 18 and 5
Harvey 17/4/4
Majok 10 and 4
Forman 8 and 7
Rush 5
Crawford 4
Weigh 4
Dellavedova 3
Martin 3
Holmes 2
Schenscher 2

Some absolute classic translations there Isaac! I haven't worked out Rotary Snowfall though. Who is that? Has to be one of Schensch, Harvey or Martin I suppose? Hope its Big Luke and he comes back to play for the Sixers. I'll be calling him the Big Rotary Snowfall for the rest of his career!

Nice turnaround for the Boomers after the Kiwi flogging. I gave them no chance before, so they deserve some props for knuckling down and winning both games so far.

Ogilvy is quickly establishing himself and looks like he will be hard to leave out of the Boomers team for the Worlds. For those who saw the game, is he scoring more because without Jawai he is now the primary go to guy in the paint?

Good to see Harvey turn things around and put up some good numbers. He was awful earlier this week in the limited minutes he got against NZ.

Well done to Oscar as well, for going out and grabbing 7 rebounds and scoring the winning points by the sound of it.

Would love to see our boys knock off Angola and then win the final (probably against China I'm guessing). That would definitely ease the pain of losing to the Kiwis.

Snowfall is Schensch, yes. The BA article links to video footage from the games. The Chinese service with boxscores and video material has been great.
