  • Made a tik tok trying to convey some of the emotion of the Australian Men's basketball team winning their first ever medal at the Tokyo Olympics and it went viral, so here's a longer version.

    How could anyone not love Andrew Gaze? He is the soul of Aussie basketball. Thanks for the upload!!

      He is the best and he knows how important it is to honour the legacy of those who faught for decades to establish basketball in Australia - including his incredibly hard working father.

    The Aussies were robbed against Spain in Rio......absolutely shafted. That loss was hard to accept because of the ref basically cheating us out of a medal. What a c**t.
    When we won the bronze in Tokyo, I cried with Gazey and I'm tearing up now.....what a moment.

    Time have long passed since this. But as a Duel-Citizen Aussie-American, this was arguably the most emotional moment for me in the Olympics especially with basketball. And with both US and Australia on the podium, this was icing on the cake.

    Australian basketball is constantly on the up and up but this was history and extremely special especially considering the hope,blood sweat and tears that a lot of the squad had previously gone through before this magnificent achievement.
    Can't wait till next world cup and Olympics.

    That medal meant so much to the Boomers, after being denied so cruelly in Rio I was so pleased they went one better. Plus whose to say they won’t go better than this in Paris?
