My NEW and final short film before Rio kicks off:)
Relive the Boomers journey @ London 2012 when, for a split second, we dared to dream... Before Kobe tore our heart out. Lol.
Mate that was amazing. Got me so hyped for Rio!

Watching that back, it wasn't really Kobe that tore our heart out but the slow start against Brazil!
To think, we win that game and we would have avoided the early cross-over against the US - then anything could have happened.
Great vid.

To think that Spain lost to Russia and Brazil in the group phase only to come within 7 points of the USA in the final.
Clearly Spain were much better at disguising their tanking job to Brazil in the last group match than Australia was in 2014.
That said, if the Boomers had beaten Brazil, either Spain doesn't tank and Brazil finish 4th or Spain finishes 4th with the early exit against the US and miss out on the medals. Or Russia doesn't take us so lightly and we finish 4th anyway.
That final between the US and Spain was epic.

Very inspirational. I hope all young basketball players watch this
