Australia vs USA Basketball 5th August 2008 BOOMERS & PAT MILLS TOP PLAYS!

by Australia's Hoopcity (online) Magazine --- http://www.hoopcity.com.au --- AUSSIE HOOPS #1 SITE ---

Australia took on the USA Redeem Team on August 5th 2008 for an exhibition game just days before the Olympics... This video focuses on Australia's highlights, which were rarely shown on America's sports news programs... this is the footage team USA didnt want everyone to remember.

Keep an eye out for Australia's rising stars Brad Newley, Dave Barlow and Pat Mills who stepped up to the US all-stars and got within 5 shots from causing an upset (US won by only 11 points, 87-76). Also CJ Bruton and Anstey played important veteran roles.

The Australian Boomers are here to surprise in Beijing... Anything is possible.

[Yeowie69]

@ConcreteSurfer420 The thing is America have a population of aprox 302 Million.

While Australia has a aprox population of only 22 million. So give us some credit.

@1nonlyrawbert you are an arrogant prick, you know that. p.s. have you heard of andrew bogut (nearly made all star team but got injured) and patrick mills who is an upcoming rookie, who you'll find has nba starting point guard level talent.

[Tankema123]

@myjack011 you'll find he can if you look at some highlights, if portland give him more court time he will definitely bring more to the nba, he is very underrated
