Aussie, you can just google rio basketball and all the tournament info will come up for every game, if your posting you obviously have the internet.

It's a fair question in this case though. FIBA have had some incorrect info at times, and Boti's blog incorrectly has it as 01:15 AEST

I got 7:30am SA time from Boti's initial times before the tournament started. The USA game was also scheduled for 7:30am and turned on the TV and it was already a few minutes into the game so 7:15am is probably the actual start time.

The Boomers game will be on 7TWO at 8am AEST, we'll tweet if the channel changes.

Fair call to Channel 7 since only showing the second half of our first game against France they've shown I think Serbia & China in full on 7TWO and the USA game in full on 7.

They showed the full game against France too. It was just separated into halves (first half was on 71).

The official Rio Basketball site has had the entire tournament mens and womens games and times right from the start, they haven't been wrong yet.

At the half, Broekhoff, Lisch, Bairstow, Motum, Martin, combining for 0 points in a combined 37 minutes. Just 0/4 shots though between them.

I think we should get this one and I feel it is a good opportunity for Baynes to show more aggression and stamp himself as our second best big going forward, notwithstanding how good Anderson has been, it is Baynes who needs to show something in this one...

Looks like Goulding has found his mark. It's a good thing going forward for him to have confidence scoring off the bench when Patty's back on the court.

Boring game, thought Venezuela would have had more fight with their tournament on the line.

Not sure if we'll make the quarters injury-free, though. News on Bairstow? Doesn't look good.

If Bairstows injury is serious it makes us a lot more reliant on Bogut, Baynes, Anderson and could mean minutes for (shudders!) Brock Motum!

It's a real blow as Bairstow has been very solid in his role.

As far as I can see, that was an important win from the perspective of world rankings after the games.
Even if we lose in the quarter finals, we should now finish 5th in the tournament.
