BRAD&BOTI: Better late than never! A few unfortunate technical issues haunted last week's Brad&Boti podcast with Sydney multi-media mogul Brad Rosen and I wrapping up the Paris Olympics and the latest NBL shock, but here it is now for your enjoyment (or otherwise).

AUSTRALIAN Boomers Paris Games captain Patty Mills has landed on his NBA feet, the five-time Olympian signing a new guaranteed one-year deal worth $US3.3million at Utah Jazz, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. A while back the Jazz had both Dante Exum and Joe Ingles on its roster.

BOB'S BONUS: Our Seattle-based (and therefore Storm-friendly) US correspondent BOB CRAVEN dropped us a piece from "The Seattle Times" by Chris Kudialis which appeared last week during the height of the Olympics in Paris about our GOAT, Lauren Jackson and which we reprint here.
Smith a star as USA staves off gritty France

FRANCE went down fighting but the USA held firm to win their women's Olympic Gold Medal match 67-66 in arguably the best such Final in decades, Gabby Williams' last basket, a floating jumper on the siren fired from just inside the arc, creating the closing scoreline when just a few inches back would have meant overtime.
