Watch Boomers v Spain G2 LIVE online

18.07.12

The Australian Boomers move a step closer to London 2012 when they look to exact revenge on Spain in Game 2 of their series against the European Champions in Malaga tomorrow morning AEST.

Fans will be able to see every shot, block and rebound LIVE online courtesy of the Spanish network rTVe, which is streaming the game on their website.

Game 2 of the series is scheduled to tip-off at 6:15am AEST and the Boomers’ faithful can watch all the action at: http://www.rtve.es/deportes/baloncesto/directo/.

Coming off a narrow 75-69 loss in Game 1 at the hands of the Beijing Silver Medallists, the Boomers will be eager to back-up their Granada performance with another defensive master class.

We got an insight into the versatility of the Boomers’ squad with the team having great success with a smaller, more athletic line-up through long stretches of the game.

Australian head coach Brett Brown expects that trend to continue in Game 2.

“We’ll end up playing some small ball with Mark Worthington and David Barlow at the four spot,” Brown said.

“We’ll be a little bit different, but I think that’s one of the strengths of the group in that we are flexible, we can play big or small.

“I have confidence in those guys ability to play the four position.”

Following Game 2 the Boomers head north to France on Friday for the final phase of Olympic preparations, with games against Brazil (Monday morning AEST) and France (Tuesday morning AEST).

Agree about Patty,really a 2 not a 1,he should drive and dish to 3 pt shooters like David or cutting post players. amazes me that when a guy drives no one cuts for the dish or at least rebound.overall though Boomers have impressed,well done guys.Delly doin a great job BTW

simon mate, your right about barlow, but who i want to see more is PC, personally i think he is their best 3 point shooter, better than patty, ingles or andersen.

David Barlow should get more burn and more plays ran through him. I don't understand why his skills are not used. He has size, can handle better than anyone n the team and can shoot the sh*t out of it. Run more plays through him and I think we'll have a chance at beating these top teams. Also, Patty should come off the bench. Delova (bad spelling) is a better leader and passer. Patty should come on for points and bursts but not control the game as he's a bad decision maker.
Let's go Boomers!
