Yeah they can barely keep 8 teams in the league!

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

A lot of good discussion going on today about the NBL though! Tommy Greer, Chris Anstey, Goulding and others tweeting about the league and drumming up interest! Good!

Hawks retiring Melvin Thomas #33 jersey tonight, should equal a win

Hawks retiring Melvin Thomas #33 jersey tonight, should equal a win

That it did plus I liked the look of our two imports, especially Rotnee CLarke

He has one hell of a crossover, almost broke Djeric's ankles at one stage, was beautiful to watch.

Breakers to give Lazare the flick. Will be interesting who they sign in his place.

Intrigue surrounds Darnell Lazare's replacement at the Breakers.
The three-time defending Australian basketball league champions will reportedly sack the American import this morning.
Buzz around the club is that they will announce a big name signing in his place.
Basketball commentator and inaugural Breakers coach Jeff Green says he would agree with such a move.
"It's something that sometimes you have to do as a club, to change personnel etc.
"And I think the Breakers could possibly be looking, or have pulled a trigger on that."
The Breakers currently sit bottom of the ladder after just one win this season.

[kiwi_in_melb]

Yea that sucks big time for Trueman!

 

[BruzDB]

Wow, interesting. The douche factor in the NBL just went up by 1

 

[Mr Paparazzi]

After a shocking start to NBL Dream Team came in ranked 6 this week in Australia.

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Insane how NOTHING is dropping for the Hawks!!!!!

And Tiggs getting wedged just topped it off LOL

 

[BruzDB]

 

[mattyj]

poor old Tiggs cant catch a break tonight...

Dunked into the front of the rim
Missed an ally oop
Passed to no one straight out of bounds...

 

[GarnettFan4Life]

Well that was embarassing.

 

[drob50]

Wow! Only just finished watching! To think the lead was that big at the half with ZERO from Ennis???

Beal is starting to look like a Lisch replacement! But when you get Marto shooting 100% from the field and 4 being 3s, you are in trouble! He is normally a defense only player!
