When you're as thin as Australia is, yeah i think you could play both. You'd just stick one of them in SG. Probably Delly because you want the ball in Kyrie's hands as much as possible. All sliding doors stuff i guess
I wouldnt write off Ben Simmons as a scorer yet. He'll never be KD, but he's still very young and his jumper is a long way from a finished product. He's already handy around the paint. But you'd hope in 4 years time we're rolling out:
PG: Exum
SG: Delly/Mills
C: Maker
PF: Simmons
SF: Ingles
And then have an aging Bogut on the bench who might still be able to give us 10-15 minutes of tough rim protection.Mills?Delly coming off the bench, and there is 2-3 other young kids like Humpries (16 y/0 7 footer), Bolden (SF who got recruited by UCLA)...
I mean we're never going to produce a team capable of beating Team USA unless we get them on a bad day. But the aim is to get a team good enough to get into a gold medal player and maybe they have that bad day.
There is a genuine chance if a things break right, we could have the clear cut #2 BB team in the world
