Just followed the Grand Final on Live stats! Did I read right, have the Flames won on the last basket of the night, courtesy of a Andrew Webber 3 pointer? is this the same WEbber whothreee weeks people said should have been suspended?
yea, webber hit it from just inside half court on the buzzer to win by 1
Yep, it was a throw (off balance) from the half way line (in the corner opposite the scorer's table). Buzzer goes off. Ball goes in. Norwood win by a point. Unbelievable.

Norwood took possession of the ball being 2 points down and 3.5 secs left on the clock. What an amazing finish. It was worth watching just to see Rupert jump off his seat, screaming and shouting and waving his arms in the air like a mad woman as he ran towards Webber on court. You could say Norwood deserved the win more because they had the lead for more than 3/4 of the game and looked the superior team. In the last quarter Forestville fought back to take the lead. When it counted the most, Forestville picked up their game whilst Norwood lost confidence and looked lost. The last few minutes of the game you could have bet your house on Forestville winning. Luck played a big part in this game but at the same time Norwood worked their butts off throughout most of the game.
disgusting behaviour? u mean going nuts at a half court shot to win the grand final.... yeah they definitely should have kept quiet.... sour grapes perhaps?

Perhaps the basketball gods have spoken if Forestville have indeed broken the salary cap they have received their just deserts

I'm willing to lay a bet that that will probably be the best game I will see in 08/09, better than any of the games that I expect I will see in the NBL and NBA finals series (or regular season for that matter). Congratulations Norwood. Well deserved.

Congratulations to Norwood but don't be casting aspersions about the supposed salary cap......

Is there any video footage from it someone can upload?
Stuff it, upload the entire game. It was brilliant!!
As an avid Eagles person, the better team won the game. Eagles were woeful in the first half!
