Message: [QUOTE="Zarathustra, post: 5299013, member: 11285"] Quarterfinals USA 21 Japan 9 USA exploits the mismatches on height Sarah 5 points with rebounds and one block M. Maly 6 points with rebounds and assists S. Williams 3 points rebounds and one nice "tip" M. Williams 7 points. USA to play Germany in the SEMI. Germany's team is NOT their Olympic GOLD medal team. They defeated Austria in the quarterfinals 18 -13 with Speed, and great team chemistry and are WELL coached with get combination plays ("FAKE HANDOFFS" etc.) and they have a VERY FAST (# 4 jersey) player: ZOLPER === really fast!!! In the other Quarterfinal: Australia 20 - 16 over Canada and Ukraine (with 6'5" Kate Koval, LSU) beat Mongolia's "AMAZONS" 16 - 13. Prediction Australia over Ukraine and USA over GERMANY. FINAL??? USA vs Australia in a repeat of the first game of this tournament: USA beating Australia in that one (the game could have gone either way, IMHO). GO SARAH! [/QUOTE]
