Hah! Great coverage of our 3 Cougs! And throw Nigeria's Josh Akognon in the mix - Mr. Instant offense as I recall - and we are talking Cougs everywhere.

My man crush Baynesie didn't look too good on t he stat line. Any report from someone who watched the game would be helpful. Some of us have day jobs.

It looked like his main job was to physically engage with the strongest USA player on the floor and keep them occupied. The biggest problem I saw was that he was tied up with that most of the time and couldn't go after rebounds as a result. Australia was primarily keeping the ball on the perimeter when I watched and wasn't making a conscious effort to get the ball into the post. The only time I saw an Australian big man get the ball was if the USA defense lapsed as the shot clock went wore down and they would rifle a pass in there.
