ketball now and all they talk about is Ben Simmons and Thon Maker.Everybody likes to see what Australia has done because its alw Antworten

Former Boomers coach Brian Goorjian does not expect Australia to be in Olympic medal contention in Rio de Janeiro, but he believes they can be a realistic gold medal chance at the 2020 Games in Tokyo.Australian basketball seems set to enter a golden era with 2016 No. 1 Draft pick Ben Simmons and fellow first-round draftee Thon Maker adding to whats already a talented roster featuring NBA championship winners Patrick Mills, Aron Baynes, Andrew Bogut and Matthew Dellavedova.However, injuries and personal preferences will see a whole host of Australian stars sitting out when Rio gets underway in August.Dante Exum and Simmons will miss the Olympic campaign, as both are electing to concentrate on getting their bodies right for the 2017 NBA season, while Andrew Bogut is recovering from the left knee injury he suffered in the NBA Finals while playing for Golden State Warriors before he was traded to Dallas Mavericks. Bogut expects to be named in Australias 12-man squad for Rio, but uncertainty remains about his fitness for the Games.They are no doubt going to take a step forward from where they have been, and it is a really exciting time now for Australian basketball, Goorjian, who coached the Boomers from 2001 to 2008, told ESPN.The last two Olympics have been similar for the Boomers [quarterfinals]. I think this team will do better, but a gold or silver medal is still another Olympics away.The thing works in cycles and it looks great on paper, but I do think that there is a process in learning to play together.Goorjian also expects the Rio Olympics to act as a send-off for some of Australias senior players.The Boomers 18-man squad features five players over 30 years of age -- David Anderson (36), Damian Martin (31), Bogut (31), Aleks Maric (31) and Brad Newley (30) -- who are all unlikely to be in contention for 2020 Olympic selection.That group thats there now will be in their last Olympics and then youll have Simmons, Maker and Exum in their prime, Goorjian said. When all of those pieces fall into place there will be an opportunity for a gold medal.Goorjian has spent the past eight years working as a basketball coach in China, after stepping down from the Boomers in 2008, and he says that Australias hard work and deserved successes are being noticed in the rest of the world.If youre in Europe or Asia, everyone is well aware of the progress Australia has made and people are scratching their heads asking what they are doing over there, Goorjian said.Four Australians have featured in an NBA Championship-winning roster in the past three years, with San Antonio Spurs, the Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers, and Simmons in June became the third Melbourne-born player in 11 years to be selected with the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft.Being in China, all of the young players are aware of Australian basketball now and all they talk about is Ben Simmons and Thon Maker.Everybody likes to see what Australia has done because its always punching above its weight. Rudy Ford Jersey . There are surprises among the Vezina candidates, but most of the others are standard top-tier performers, even if the two Hart Trophy runners-ups have never been quite as good as they have been through the first half of the season. Will Holden Jersey . Murray beat Sam Querrey 7-6 (5), 6-7 (3), 6-1, 6-3 to clinch Britains opening-round victory against the United States on Sunday at Petco Park. "Im proud of the way Im playing just now, because I had to do a lot of work to get back to where I want to be," Murray said after celebrating with his teammates on the red clay court in a temporary stadium in left field of the downtown home of baseballs San Diego Padres. http://www.cheapcardinalsjerseyssale.com/?tag=deone-bucannon-jersey-sale . Already owning gold from competition in Vancouver in 2010, Loch posted a combined four-run time of 3:27.526. That included a track-record third run of 51. Authentic Arizona Cardinals Jerseys . Only three players drafted by NHL clubs were included on the Czech selection camp roster on Wednesday. Those players were Dallas Stars 2012 first-rounder Radek Faksa, Winnipeg Jets 2013 fourth-rounder Jan Kostalek and Phoenix Coyotes 2012 seventh-rounder Marek Langhamer. Phil Dawson Jersey . In what the team had called a retirement, Ryan said Thursday that he is resigning as chief executive of the Rangers in a move effective at the end of this month. INDEPENDENCE, Ohio -- The King is already contemplating his reign coming to a close.LeBron James, on the opening day of training camp for his 14th NBA season, said that the retirements of Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and most recently Kevin Garnett have caused him to think about when he and his contemporaries will play their final games.It feels like our era is next, James said Tuesday. Thats what it feels like. Me, [Dwyane] Wade, [Carmelo Anthony], [Chris] Bosh. Were next. Were on deck. Were the next group behind those guys. I mean seriously, if you look at it, were the next group. So thats one of the first things that I thought about, like, once Dirk [Nowitzki], and Vince [Carter], and Paul Pierce decide to go, were next. You just dont take it for granted. Every time we come out here, we talk to you guys, step out on the floor, were going to play this game, we love it, but were on deck.James signed a three-year extension this summer that will keep him in the league at least through the 2017-18 season should he play it out.Pierce announced Monday that 2016-17 would be his 19th and final season. He is one of three remaining members of the 1998 draft class still active, along with Nowitzki and Carter.James came into the league in 2003 along with Anthony, Wade and Bosh. They have already outlasted several other notable names from their draft class, including Darko Milicic (selected No. 2) and T.J. Ford (No. 8).A visiting reporter asked James if he thought he could add to his three championships and amass as many as six, seven or eight rings before he is finished playing -- as he once suggested during a pep rally when he joined the Miami Heat.Nah, I dont do that anymore, James said. Last time I did that, everyone wanted to make a headline about ranking off how many chhampionships I was going to win.dddddddddddd For me, its just about maximizing each season, going out and playing my game, leading this team and at the end of the season see what happens, so nothing is promised and we just have to earn our way once again for another season.The reporter followed up by asking the 31-year-old James if he was satisfied with his place in league history already.What? Im not answering that, James replied. You even asking me a question like that is crazy.James was later asked if he considers his very best behind him and shot back, No. Thats insulting. Another reporter followed up on James baseball analogy and asked if that meant he was simply taking a long walk to the plate from the batters circle.I said we was on deck, James quipped, not that I was a DH [designated hitter].On a serious note, retirement could come sooner for Bosh than the rest of his fellow heralded 03 draftees. Miami president Pat Riley said Monday that Boshs Heat career is probably over after a blood clotting condition caused the two-time champion to fail a team physical.I stand behind my brother Chris, and the most important thing is his health, James said. So whatever decision he wants to do, and go forward, Im all for it. Ill support him in any way, shape or facet. Obviously we all know its probably a difficult situation for him, and its pretty surprised a little bit to hear that the team is just done with him, and then to come out and say it. Its not like Ive been there, to know exactly whats going on in the interior. So Ive only seen it from the exterior like the rest of us. So, um, I just wish the best for him and he has my support.
