The Australian basket program has leveled up they are now producing talent instead of being a landing spot for former and failed USA players
hello how are you going?
both men and women wow
Look at australia cutting and moving without the ball to taking high percentage shots i.ll take that over a whole bunch of jacking up 3s anyday
If you watched the full game, the USA team skipped few wide-open mid and paint scores trying to open three points spot. They're just giving up on 8pts and at least 3 or 4 foul plays. Today's basketball players are victims of 3pts plays.
@@albericetzel they are copying steph curry and GSW but the sad thing is GSW went to the basket alot
As someone who grew up playing rep basketball with and against some of these girls I have to say, I’m so proud. Other counties don’t realise that it’s not about who is playing, we may not have big numbers of kids playing basketball compared to some countries but we give everyone a chance to play and work as a team and everyone gets better as a unit. We have club basketball which is just the local tournament and on top of that have representative basketball which trains at least 2 times a week for about 2 hours each time. So we get a lot of practice. We also hold a lot of events like when I was a teen we had a sleepover night at the stadium which we did a lot of competitions and stuff it was really fun. I miss those days to be honest. I’m 27 end every day I still think of basketball lol. Time to pick the ball back up
Smh, dropped some good defenders for some old legends. No disrespect but it shows here. USA should have used some of our younger players.
I couldn't agree more. There is absolutely no reason for Bird and Taurasi (who isn't playing currently) to be on this team. They each already have 4 or 5 gold medals.
THE REST OF THE WORLD HAS FINALLY CAUGHT UP TO USA BASKETBALL.
They have a UConn bias
@@ranhill62 both are still playing
@@ranhill62 wtf Sue Bird is the best point guard in the world xd
If They would of picked Arike they would have had a go to scorer but nooooooo they wanted to pick a player who’s injured instead.
Who's the injured player?
@@kevinmassoma3310 Diana Taurasi
Arike is a killer, she deserves to be on this team smh 🤦🏽♀️
@@JerhaSemaj Facts Arike kinda has a Bradley Beal type of game. She’s a scorer and finds open teammates. Now they’re regretting not picking her.
It's almost like the us national team selected a roster off of name recognition over actual talent and hardiness.... you have to play defense too???
I think that WNBA all star are much better than this USA team.
The US hoop dominance is over both for men and women.
Usa mens dont even use their full potential yet.. kyrie and curry did not play cause maybe they are tryna rebuild with the younger not so good guys to get use to olympic basketball i think they will catch up soon
Men team is not even at full capability
@@Xekuter69 I agree but they still are losing a some games
@@adamwinch2959 yea hopefully they can still win gold
@@Xekuter69 I hope not cause i'm Australian 😂
It’s official, the Australian men’s and women’s basketball teams are now favourites to win the Gold.
Com'on now
no they are not
these are practice games, get some perspective
there are many good European teams that are more favored over Australia in men's
in women's Australia has always been #2 or #3.
@@Lupi33z Australia womens are ranked 2nd in the world the Aussie men are ranked 3rd in world.
Try do some research for once
@@Fred316-i1f rankings mean nothing, confidence and current form is everything.
@@Fred316-i1f tell me where I am wrong? Aussie men have never won a medal. Many European teams have.
Ladies come on now. 17 points in 15 minutes is unacceptable. We need to step it up.
And they want more money
@@Tloc103 🤦🏾♀️
I love that this video edited out 30 minutes of missed shots. Perhaps if they made the ball even smaller for the women, they might be able to score more. LOL!
So proud of them. The spirit is unbelievable and goes back decades. Shame it's just a practice match.
The opals just shining USA your time in the sun maybe over congratulations to Sandy I'm sure Penny is stocked to got a get a big one over Dee!!!!!! Go opals hope your win rubs of on the Matildas they need it go Aussies
Considering that in Australia. they lose a good amount of potential players to the proto basketball game of Netball, this win was even more impressive.
...a good observation. Netball has the highest participation rate of any sport in Australia.
Team USA has such a great team
What is happening to US basketball? 😳😳🤔🤔
We have got to do better. 😔. Hopefully this is a wake up call 🤔🤨
We will be fine in Olympics atleast I hope
Needed to get a dose of humility
We are USA we are supposed to win both men and women
@@theglassesriley8229 let’s hope we do better in Olympics this is still preseason
Wokeism and laziness
Same thing happened to the mens team, but they came back strong and both teams won gold...
What was shocking was the lack of defense by the USA and their woeful efforts to get back on transition.
I want to see the WNBA All-Stars play against a high school boys team using a normal-sized ball.
I did not see that happen with all of the great WNBA players, the stars in the court and they lost, and the big difference in points and the guys lost too anyways better luck girls for the next game be more focused more serious so hunger you have the names but you must prove it in the court IMO.😢
hello how are you going?
They lost and Australia didn't even have Liz 👀
Yes but several of Australia's player are playing in WNBA even their coach is Mercury's coach, and Australia players have been together so long so they have better connection and communication than USA team I guess
hello how are you going?
@@banksyiilbaby8877 I'm good cutie what about yourself
@@danteallen1868 How was your weather there? Hope all is well.?
@@banksyiilbaby8877 it's hot af and humid but it's all good
Team WNBA wouldn’t of lost😤
"of" is used improperly in this sentence. "have".
@@daviclar867 Lol @Some people trying to look intelligent when really it's a miracle all the words are correctly spelled.
No Cambage and no Sami Whitcomb who was not even selected for the team. What!?
Cambage is selected. Sami Whitcomb maybe retired from Australia's national team
@@loveadkins Mitchell was chosen over sami
@@loveadkins yes, but she withdraws just yesterday
Cambage will never play for Australia again
@@Lupi33z cambage is one head case.
Australia got pros too. Usa team getting schooled by solid team ball.
Damn bird, taurasi, fowles etc thanks for your service
but i don’t think they can do it again .
Much fun to watch the ladies. They put in more effort.
@Guy Norvens I just saw horrible defense by the US
why is no one saying australia played well and that it was a good comeback instead of bagging the US team. Clearly some people are a little insecure that they might not win gold in bball for once
How we keep losing thou?
hello how are you doing?
Are there Men in drag playing in this League ?
If so, will the USA qualify for The I.S.F. or The Olympics?
It is a shame that highlights in this case seems to mean most of the scoring shots and virtually no successful defence.
Courtney Williams and Arike Ogunbowale should be on this team instead of Diana and sue. They had their time, should’ve let these younger ballers play.
Especially with Diana Taurasi being Injured with a bad hip, she only played 6 games in the WNBA this year.
Dang both men and women USA team lost to aussies.
Respect the Aussies or we will invade you with drop bears. lol
hey at least we're not China
The US team is looking old and slow. No Arike??? No Courtney?? No Erica? Not dynamic, boring. So much for showing the world how entertaining the WNBA is. Regardless of medal outcome this is a missed opportunity to grow the game outside of the US. Very disappointing.
I am very surprised with regard to the slow pace. Very boring.
5 Seattle Storm Players In This Game Go Storm!
hello how are you going?
Nice game ladies👏👏👏👏👏
men and women :
usa 0 australia 2

How about now?? USA GOLD MEDALIST
Go team USA
Bird and Taurasi need to sit. They are 40 and 39, time for younger players to get their opportunity. Skylar should be starting at point.
Ik my comment is 2 weeks old but EXACTLY!!!!!
Skylar is a liability on defense. As you can see, faster guards were just blowing by her.
I’m telling you, they made a big mistake with their USA selection. The ALL STAR WNBA TEAM should have been selected. I don’t think the ALL STAR TEAM would have been beaten by AUSTRALIA
HECK NO they definitely wouldn’t of lost Candace Parker and Arike would of turned up and Courtney Vandersloot to would of been throwing dimes.
😂😂😂 Yeah, no! There's only one questionable pick and CP removed herself from the pool. And they still won gold!
Wow great game by the Aussies
hello how are you going?
Dag we are no longer the basketball world champions
? These are exhibitions
@@Xekuter69 And? It's not a very good start for team USA if they want to get that gold
@@anti-loganpaul7827 doesn't mean you're not good anymore or have champion DNA thru the team
@@anti-loganpaul7827 devin booker,Kris Middleton, jrue holiday are team usa and are in the finals right now there missing players. When those three come it should be a more complete team. Bradley beal got health violation he's gone now jermi grant is in violation also and usa is pushed into a corner of desperately needing there best of best. James harden,lebron,steph,russel,derozen,kyrie, zion,. And the lack of chemistry is showing because all they do is iso. Give the team some time and they should be good in no time. They redeemed there 2 lose EXHIBITION streak by blowing out Argentina. All the games usa has lose has been between 10.
@@anti-loganpaul7827 international teams are showing better chemistry and fundamentals so far and they are catching up to usa
That beck allen is the Truth
Go USA!
The battle of 2 largest countries
damn i can't belive that USA lose this game
Let's face it Australia is better at basketball than the USA now
they finally won one game and considered the best, PLEEEEASE, wait for Tokyo and se what happens
Australia is playing for the bronze lol
They won one game and all of a sudden there the best💀Let’s see how they do when FOCUSED Usa plays them.
Australia have won the last two meetings against USA in different countries in men's and now the women's team have got in on the act. Exhibition or not winning is winning. It don't matter if inch tourney or exi.
@@ytyndale3643 you want a trophy for winning an EXHIBITION that USA wasn’t playing hard in . Plus Usa got this team together like a week ago Australia has been together way longer. Plus our U16-U19 been smacking y’all by 60 for like 25 years now.
Ya quiero que sea 6 de noviembre 🤩🥹
US has only had like 2 practices everybody chill
Australia had around the same or even less lol
@@JavannaCampbell No they did not. Their coach pulled them out a week or so ago so they could start practicing.
I blame who ever selected the USA team. WNBA all stars won by 6 and now USA loses by 3 to a team they won against in 2018. Bird and Taurasi are a waste of roster spots we need Arike Ogunbowale and Courtney Williams instead. I respect my WNBA legends but I think they would have been a better fit. Good thing this was only an exhibition game though.
Typical bloody Yank , never give the opposition credit.
Australia a country of 25 million where basketball would be 6th ranked sport. VS the USA country of 300 million plus where Basketball would be top 3
Yes you are better than us but the Opals have been like the 2nd best team for last 2 decades
@@Fred316-i1f I acknowledge that the opals are extremely talented I am just biased and want USA to win because I’m American. Australia played a great game, see you in Tokyo.
Who needs Liz Cam”Brat” to win gold. So glad the show pony is out. Go Aussies.
I am a huge fan of the USA women basketball but this time you can’t deny that the issue is obviously problematic team selection. Imo they should’ve chosen a few small forwards to diversify their plays. Also their guards are less of a shooter… if they got arike/ Courtney Williams the team would be more explosive and dynamic. I would’ve chosen kelsey Mitchell over chelsea gray too…
Great job Australia. Glad to see them beating the USA Team which is a political joke. No way Dawn Staley should be coach, it should go to someone much more deserving, like Tara V or Kim Mulkey, or C Vivian Stringer. And the politics of players like Nneka and Candace being left off the team in 2016, and Nneka this year, is ridiculous. And players like Napheesa Collier making the line up? What a joke.
Aussie women are very good not quite usa good but good have been for 30 tyears mate, once in a while we will get the win
@@Fred316-i1f Hopefully they will get the win in the Olympics against the Amercian team. Up until 2016 I always rooted for US, but not after all the Geno and Dawn political bullshit.
Thanks australia😍😍I won 6538euro what a game
the covids are going to play havoc with the betting markets, it'll be the new form of match fixing
@@Lupi33z Every bet is match fixing. I don't believe that everything is fair. Even fifa is in it (platini)! many matches a lot of effort
Griner stands 6 ft 9 in tall, wears a men's US size 17 shoe, and has an arm span of 87.5 inches. So why is she playing with a smaller basketball than the one used by high school boys?
Both bow wow 😮
congrats::: Australia!!!
Even though its a tune up game you should not lose a game it will include in the history
Wait, the women are playing basketball in the Olympics!?!? Didn't know!! Good for them!!! Wait, the women are playing basketball in the Olympics!?!?
Wow! Was expecting the Americans to run the Aussies off the gym!
Women's and Men's Aussie teams will be USA's pain in the ass. To think that most of these US players are professionals going up against amateurs.
hello how are you doing?
Where is Liz Cambage, why did'nt she play
Boa noite congrats usa basketball mulheres amigas técnica mulheres vai amém bom
If they would have had Candace Parker and Nneka O on the team, they might have been able to pull out a win.
arike should be in the team, she's a good one
How do we lose Australia
Wow they best them without cambage
The times they spent bi*ching about equal pay they should be upping their game. They way they talk this should have been a blow out...little woman
The USA seems to keep sending the same players to the games. Start using our younger, more athletic talented players.
Exactly... Sue bird & Diana Taurasi are to OLD.... It's like they are trying to prove (Something) & I LOVE USA Women's Basketball, However this TEAM is making me nervous...
They seriously need to consider to play topless,I'd start watching the WNBA.
But in the odds showing the score it came up 9-9
Karma to USAWB for their poor roster decisions. I hope they lose in the Olympics too.
Can she learn how to says Aussie it’s pronounced ozzy not Assie
I dont watch WNBA basketball so this is a serious question. Who are these woman? I recognize like 2 or 3 of them by their face. Is this really the best collection of woman they could have put together? Did other USA women not want to compete? How do they lose a lead that big? Also i thought that britney griner was better than demarcus cousins.
hello how are you going?
USA basketball no good any more hahahaha . I am really sorry I laughed
USA y'all llook tired... Bird can't carry a lazy team that don't want it... get hungry
omg sky pass ball mistake。。
I see the men not the only 1s struggling
There too busy trying to pander to the people instead of playing basketball nobody really cares about women's basketball anyway so I guess it makes sense try and get some attention
Guys I want us Americans to loose lol
No Cambage...No worries...No fouls in international basketball
Go USA
2 points in 4 min 😬😬 good defense i guess
Ain't that some s. . t .
Youngin's don't seem to get it . Details . Extra effort . Urgency . Pride .
Sue bird should be benched plays zero defense
Obviously, she is not the only person to blame. The whole team at this point is a total joke. They will be lucky to win the bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
@@pierrojules still she needs to be benched, we need napheesa to play more too. Too many scorers not enough defenders on the court, skylar plays better defense the sue they just blow past sue
Major L for the ladies
The USA needs players like.
1.Delle Donne.
2. Maya Moore.
3. Sabrina Lonescu.
4. Arike Ogunbowale.
( Sue Bird & Diana Taurasi are very OLD) We need young players with fresh legs....
Delle Donne is still recovering from her surgery, Ionescu looked very slow coming back from her injury of June and Maya Moore hasnt played since 2018.
But when they comeback they'll sure be playing
Both the men and the women USA basketball teams pathetically lost to the Australian team, respectively. I watched it live up to the middle of the third quarter, at the point where they led by 15 points. What an embarrassment!!! This team is simply playing horribly. They are totally asleep at the defense. They will be lucky to win even a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics.
they had two practices, just relax and watch them in tokyo explode!
Very Competitive
They will lose because they ignored ogumike
China just beat AUS in Tokyo
Good day I'm Ronald Gray please if you don't mind can we be friends
USA lost to Australia both men and women basketball?? Hhhmmm 🤔
Imagine cambage still there. Would be scary hours for every opp
hello how are you going?
Basketball big game in the united states
🤣🤣🤣😹😹
Go Opals.
Skylar diggins smith should be starting
Skylar and Chelsea had some issues running a solid offense today. Turnovers and no real movement. Plus shots didn't fall today. Could be a coaching... we'll see.
Plus skylar has no defense xd
@@inwe8683 Right. She gets beat off the dribble ALL THE TIME.
Bad COACHING, needs to get fired….
Aus have WNBA players Leilani M, Bec Allen , Magbegor, Alana , Sami & Cambage 🙌 #goOpals #letswingoldmedal
Liz Cambage dropped out of the Opals team, Whitcomb hasn't been selected by the Opals.
@@ahayling0222 Too bad Whitcomb won championship with Seattle & NY Liberty . Liz Cambage great player but as Opals fan I respect her decision 👏 #letsgoOpals
