I remember when the titans were formed and goorg and brown were going for the job. goorg got it and led to brown going back to the states.

Now he's the 6ers coach.

Looks a pretty good signing, some good imports signed again this year in the league which only makes league bettera

Yea not bad, they put on a pretty good show and should only be better with Bogut this year. Expecting sell outs most games there so atmosphere should be good

If they are anything like Melb Utd games or what I imagine Perth home games are like then it should be pretty entertaining, even more so now with Bogut there!
Im actually looking to get up there for a kings v melb game at some stage this season

Got a free ticket to United vs Cairns last night and it was a good game, United won 89-88 with DJ Newbill missing a buzzer beater. Melbourne had Ware and the new import missing but Goulding was very good. Cairns have no depth but their imports look good. Melo Trimble looks like an absolute jet.

I think McCarron missing also?

Was there also workhorse and yep no Maccaron for Utd either.
Cairns were also missing Rob Loe who should be getting decent chunk of minutes in their lineup, also they were missing Lucas Waxy Walker who will also see good minutes you would think after his year last year with perth. Not end of the world for Cairns at this stage.

We will be doing a season preview of Cairns next week on the podcast I run with a couple of mates, you can find us via our Twitter handle https://twitter.com/BBall_Blokes

Recorded episode last night with Adelaide and Perth previews so should have it edited and online tonight.

Yeah I remember reading Walker got injured. Loe will help for sure. Is Jarrod Kenney also part of their roster? If they can stay fit and get Loe/Walker/Kenney back they should be pretty competitive.

Yes forgot about Kenny!
yeh with those 3 they should be a lot bettera.
Although Cairns beat Melb utd in a behind closed doors scrimmage game this morning 78 to 75 I think.
With no CG43 for utd, but Casper and DJ Kennedy played apparently.

Looks like lawyers may get involved in the latest in the Joey Wright v the refs saga.

Joey gets fined $1500 and suspended one game suspension for an email he sent to the refs...

Except it looks like the email conversation never happened...

Joey is a berk.

So I messaged Foxtel on FB as the NBL press release didn't really outline much about the broadcast on Fox.

The National Basketball League will be available on FOX SPORTS, with FOX SPORTS set to broadcast a minimum of one game per week, plus every Finals match LIVE.

Broadcasting seems honestly to be a step back this season.

This says all games on Foxtel? It doesn't specify LIVE but it should be.

Yes, the way that is worded to me indicates that might not be showing every game live.

Probably I'm reading into things too much, but if they have a deal where some of the games are delayed it's honestly a step back for the league given AFL, NRL, BBL, A-League all have deals where every game is broadcast live. NBL should be aiming to be putting themselves in that conversation of the major leagues in Australia.

 

[brucetiki]

The NBL is too busy doing apparel deals with their mates and pointless matches against NBA sides to worry about live broadcasts of matches.
