Wow, great effort by our www.AussieHoopla.com friend Mitch Creek to earn a spot there... hopefully this entices 36ers to resign him a little quicker.

Remember to check our podcast with him discussing his season with Adelaide and winning the NBL dunk comp if they have one. http://www.aussiehoopla.com/category/podcasts/

I don't know if Crawford can make it, but he has worked his ass off this year... and Boomers need a 3pt shooter.

Great to see Nate Jawai in there, Coach Brown said some good things about him last week
http://www.smh.com.au/sport/olympics-2012/brown-slams-critics-after-boguts-olympic-dream-ends-20120422-1xf55.html

True, and there is nothing wrong with that, but it shows that we are losing the battle of trying to make the NBL a first class comp when the majority of our better players choose to head to Europe instead. And yet, with the better players gone our clubs still go broke.

Some pretty decent players to choose from. Should be a strong squad if they gel and they can all be fit and healthy. Quite a few guys capable of shooting the lights out on any given night. Just a matter of them all doing it on the same night and a few of them in a row. Good range of bigs, athletic swingmen, quick guards, pretty jealous as a New Zealander. Every single guy on that list can play.

What happened to Steven Markovi? ??

Is he injured or just out of favour?

I'd have him ahead of Gibson for sure, and probably D Martin.

He's 190cm / 6"3, pass first point guard ave 7 assists per game, shoot 40.5% from 3pt and all reports plays solid D. Did i miss something?

Yeah re Markovic you'd surely have to assume his omission is due to injury or personal preference or something, and not due to him being overlooked through some failing in their scouting process. Because his numbers in a strong league demand attention.

Thanks for compiling that list Naph. Apart from Mills and perhaps Andersen, it makes for pretty depressing reading though. All we can hope is that warming benches/ playing minimal mins has lit a fire under some of these guys and they go in to the Olympics determined to prove something.

I hope Jawai can make an impact. He's always had big potential, but thus far he doesn't seem to have the hunger to really get the most out of that monster frame of his.

I'd be going with the following at the moment:

Mills Dellavedova
Crawford Barlow
Ingles Newley
Nielsen Baynes
Maric Andersen Jawai

Instead of Barlow, you could go with Martin if he is fit enough, but he seems to have had some injury problems this year.

The final spot I'd probably give to the young guy who is most impressive in training camp. Particularly someone who shows they can shoot the basketball! I'm thinking Bose or even Drmic if they perform well.

I don't think I'd bother taking Wortho. He hasn't been great this past season and has never done much at international level that makes me think he will have an impact at this Olympics. Perhaps Wagstaff if Brown decides he needs that mobile forward, but I'm not convinced Wagstaff would make much of an impact at international level either. For that matter, with this teams shooting woes, Brown could do worse than to recall Oscar Forman.

It's a great squad, one of the deepest Boomers squads ever. Nice to see Brett Brown recognise the young talent coming though, bringing in the guys that had outstanding college seasons, and also the best performed guys from our U19 team.

The bigs is the most interesting spot for mine. BB hasn't taken more than four bigs into tournament in the past, and has really got his work cut out for him (emphasis on the word 'cut') as he will be trying to add Andersen and Jawai to the four bigs that played against NZ - Nielsen, Maric, Baynes and Ogilvy.

BB has tended to put the team together fairly systematically in the past, four guards, four wings and four bigs.

Health issues aside, I think the definites are;

Mills, Dellavedova, Gibson, Martin, Ingles, Newley, Barlow, Worthington, Andersen, Nielsen.

Then you can throw a blanket over Maric, Baynes, Ogilvy and Jawai.

If Martin's ankle doesn't stand up, I think Crawford will come into the final team.

I think Maric is a certainty for BB. My guess at his team is:

Maric, Andersen, Newley, Ingles, Mills
Jawai, Nielsen, Worthington, Barlow, Crawford, Gibson, Dellavedova

If guys can actually hit some outside shots that is a good team. Jawai is important, because we have no other real low post scorers.

Hi Paul, I tend to agree with you in relation to Maric and Jawai. I just know how much BB likes Bayne's game, his effort and hustle. Of the four I said throw a blanket over, I think its a case of Maric v Ogilvy and Baynes v Jawai.

Cant see Ogilvy making it, he was poor in some of the non-negotiable areas last year and seemed to lose the trust of the coaches.

On another note, in this 25-man squad I would have picked Nevill over Khazzouh and Kickert.

It is an interesting one...and given Ogilvy's injury battles and lack of game time, I think he is unlikley to make. He is very much a scoring big, hence the case for Jawai would be even stronger.

That is 100% spot on Paul. Jawai is all about the x-factor he can bring to the team. You don't really know what you're gonna get. When he's on, he's almost unstoppable, but when he's poor, he's really awful.

With Baynes you know exactly what you're going to get each and every game.

Those guys will all be Boomers in the future, but the Olympics is not the place to experiment with young emerging players. There are plenty of other international tournaments for these guys to show what they've got. There will be even more now given FIBA's restructuring of international competition.

I agree hoopie - Wortho has a very specific role with the Boomers team, and he executes it very well. Just look at the qualifiers against NZ last year. He was the spark for us. Got under the skin of the opposition which threw them off their game, and was able to score some quick points from both inside and out.

I like Drmic above Greenwood.

Not saying one of those will make it (they most likely won't), but if I had to chose I would do with Drmic.

I know he is playing at Boise State, but you can't deny his numbers from the recent season = 12ppg and 5rpg.

Greenwood really struggled this past year though

Our bigs arent very good rebounders and none can block shots. i think the europeam teams like spain are going to hurt us inside. i think its going to be up to patty how far we go. we need to hit our outside shots if we have any chance.

I am looking forward to London, but it seems to me it's going to be another Olympics with Newley and Ingles taking bad shots and gaurding guys they clearly cannot. Check their stats above and we give them starting minutes in our national team. For this reason, I want to see Crawford and Greenwood named - Crawford hits shots and Greenwood competes...and Drmic for 12th spot.

Greenwood is a fantastic player, and I dont think he struggled at all. In fact, Nex Mexico started to play really well when he came back from injury and was inserted into the starting line up. Whilst I don't think he'll be part of the team this time around, he will be a mainstay of the Boomers side for the next decade and beyond. He'll probably go to 3 or 4 Olympic Games, injury aside (or unless David Stern gets his way!).

With the work that Brett Brown has done over the past four years, I just don't see him making enormous changes to the line-up, like bringing all three of Crawford, Greenwood and Drmic into the team together.

The main areas of weakness from Turkey were a lack of rebounding and a lack of outside shooting. How Brown looks to address these only time will tell. For mine, Baynes is the best rebounder we have. He only saw limited minutes in Turkey, and he has improved tremendously over the past two years. Also, there's now the option to bring Jawai into the squad as well which will help address the rebounding issue too. And outside shooting, well that still remains somewhat of a concern, although Patty has been hitting a 42% clip in his stint with San An, and Gibbo improved his shooting this season with his move to two-guard. I guess it will up to Brown to determine whether we've improved enough in this area without having to bring a guy like Crawford in to the mix. Newley is the one they need to help. If he can his consistently from outside, and be a real threat from deep like he was in Beijing he is almost unguardable. Unfortunately his three-point shot has been wildly inconsistent for quite a while.

MELHOOPS, you are right about Ingles and Newley. I think Brett Brown had it right in Turkey where he played them both as small forwards, one starting and one of the bench. With Dellavedova's vast improvement, I can't see any reason not to start him next to Patty, and bring either Newley or Ingles (probably Newley, as he can provide more of a spark of the bench with his uptempo game) off the bench.

Anderson won't start at centre, weak as piss as someone described aptly. He starts but with someone who rebounds and brings some balls. Bogut would have done nicely, but no. So it has to be Maric. He has been solid last few times out.

Mills/ Delladova
Newley/
Ingles/ Barlow/ Worthington
Anderson/ Neilsen/
Maric/ Baynes/ Jawai

The 12th player needs to be a 2/3 man, but they may take Gibbo or Greenwood (these two better at one spot) I don't know enough about the other young guys from college to confidently say one of them fits here. No AJ for mine as he is too soft and as mentioned we need Baynes to rebound and Jawai brings some x factor. Wortho is in between positions for mine at international level. Too small for the 4 spot and to slow for the 3. He brings experience and toughness though, real team guy.

Des, I like the look of your team mate. I'd love to see them find a way to accomodate both Baynes and Jawai. Play to our strengths, which are the bigs. As for the 12th man, as much as I'd like to see Greenwood get a gig, I'd say Brett Brown will stick with either Gibson or Martin.

Starting 5: Mills, Delly, Ingles, Andersen, Jawai
Bench: Crawford, Newley, Barlow, Nielson, Maric, Baynes and Drmic.

Starting 5 is certain although i can see Maric starting instead of Jawai. Crawford is in for his outside shooting and is better athletically then our other shooters, Hopefully Newley will bring a spark offensively off the bench and i take a youngster between hughwood, motum or a drmic and i think drmic is a future star.

It depends on what we're hoping to achieve in London whether we bring one of our young guns. Ideally, in a round robin tournament you want every player on the roster to be able to contribute so it's a bit of a gamble to take young inexperienced players to the tournament unless they are absolute standouts (ie. Delly). On the otherhand, the experience of playing against the best is what will make them better in the end.

Playing in the Olympics is probably the pinnicle of most Aussie ballers careers so I'd feel pretty hard done by if i was a veteran biding my time (ie. damien martin) then being beaten out by some upstart (drmic) who isn't even better than him ...yet.. (hopefully for The boomers sake). I know they play different positions but I think we should take Martin just for his shear hustle,defence and heart. Basically what the boomers have excelled at since forever.

To be honest I hope I'm wrong about the young guys and I hope they prove through the training camps that they are the new breed and are better than our current crop of Boomers. Essentially we'll be sending the same core of players that didn't do so well last time out.
