Tomorrow will determine what place they finish in the group and who they play in the quarter finals. Australia left in all on the floor vs. Canada. Does that leave them susceptible to Japan? France Serbia will be a tough match as well. Canada should roll Mali build on their schemes.
I am confused where is Brazil in this tournament ? They won a Bronze in 2021 America's Cup ?Last edited by guyroch; Tue Sep 27, 2022, 10:29 AM.

Australia ended up as the top team in the pool.. is that because they had a better point differential? Or was it because Australia won the head to head? I guess it doesn't matter.
Ultimately they ended up in the same bracket as the US.. so best chance is a 3rd place finish. Although China looks tough too.

A rematch of Canada and Australia for bronze would be nice. Their game in group play was great basketball. I even picked up a great set with some options from Canada that I am going to steal this year coaching.Twitter @WJ_FINDLAY

Well the result was like predicted but it was a nail bitter .. China 61 Australia 59 .. Although U.S kicked Canada's ass by 40 and so that was expected .
Australia is still the home country. I'm nervous for that bronze game. Would be a bit of a let down if we leave this tourney without a medal.

That was a humiliating loss. They were down 15-0 or something to start the game. It was just a blood bath for most of the game. US is unstoppable but the Canadians could have put up a better effort.

The ladies did very well. Might have won their first game against Australia, then things could have ended up differently. Still have a lot to be proud of. I'm excited to see the growth of the game in Canada and the increasing number of young women/girls participating at all levels. More participation, more Canadian girls playing college ball in the US, more making it to the WNBA or the other national leagues. Only good for the game in this country.

Ranked 4th in the world and finished 4th ... The Ladies went and took care of business .. On the Men's side the World seems to be catching
up to the Americans but it seems on the Woman's side it's the U.S and everyone else seems to be playing for second ..
