    For those interested in the Bball, big game up tonight with Slovenia against Spain. Both are undefeated and Doncic is playing the house down for Slovenia. Winner will top the pool heading into the QFs.

    This is a very good game.

    Luka picked up 3 very early fouls but Slovenia were able to hang tough. He’s filling the stat sheet other than fouls though.

    Rubio and Gasol (Mark) play very well together.

    anyone watching the tennis? I really like the look of the surface but I read it is decoturf which was the same as at the Melb Open (and when I played on it back in the day it had a huge bounce, this one seems very civilized, then again those players are close to 2m tall I'd guess). Good quality tennis, but sedate, not much drama. Best I have seen Zverev play I think (that name so Russian, no wonder, Russian parents).

    I've found this game pretty ugly!

    It’s classic Euro style ball, which I don’t mind.

    What is wrong with these rims? Seems like either the balls are over inflated or the rims are really hard

    Looked sluggish as in the first 30m and then was chasing.

    False start from the pommy bloke can't have helped concentration for anyone

    Flying mullet up next for Australia. Expecting nothing given the strength of this field.

    He's out but good race given the pressure

    10.09 and fifth. Probably the fastest white guy in the world at this point 😉

    100m hurdles and hair movement results in a false start.

    Finally a yellow card. We're talking a language I can understand!

    It's ludicrous. Nothing in that

    Seemed to be really slow first hurdle and last hurdle.

    Quick heat

    Good, thanks. I changed channel for what I thought would be 13 seconds...

    Wondering what happened.
