Hahahaha...
That commentary is so terrible.
What is it with the over use of "boom goes the dynamite" lately? is it just because it was in that Family Guy episode?

The commetary is gold...
"Boom Goes the Dynamite" has become basketball folklore.

Welcome to Adelaide Mr Gizzard, and just a word of advice, make sure the paymaster has the right BSB and Account number for you.

Someone should post that vid in Hodge's blog. That's his "9 of 9". Every single shot a layup, bar one little 6 foot running jumper. Same as every other one of his games. Doesn't even have a hint of a pull up game or anything other than an excellent ability to get to the basket.
Tool of the week - Julius Hodge

I'm not standing up for Julius because has slightly angered me, and i am a 36er fan, but its funny that everyone was very happy to have Mark Tyndale to start off, then we found out he was crap.
Then Julius came back and if i remember correctly, someone posted "Julius is our Jesus" or something along those lines, now look at what everyone is saying about him.
And NOW we come to Grizzard and we are all happy as larry, but what's gonna happen if (IF people, not saying it wil) Griz deeply disappoints us.
If you think about it, even if Hodge didn't get paid for the rest of the season, he still earnt like $40 K (if not more) in the last month. I don;t think that anything is gonna be making him upset about this whole ordeal.
(P.S i am not Julius, so please don't anyone say anything stupid along those lines)

That was actually kinda funny...
But it's usually one a week, just trying to give the fans some basketball action.
Really I'm just here for the fans.
But we were a bit backed up so that's why we put up 6 in the last 3 days.
We've got a Julius Hodge doco coming on Monday I think.

Well suga, if i was earning $40 K a month for just a bit of running around (I know theres more to it but you get the jist), and by the looks of his body, Julius didn't spend too much time with the iron bars, i would be pretty happy doing that.
the funny thing is if you look at grizzard and tyndales stats they are pretty much identical. i think it is a good signing especially for this time of the year but dont think he will have numbers like hodge did.

Is Grizzard really a done deal?? Seven news suggested Darren might be signed due to the time restraints?

Reading between the lines (and a bit of wishful thinking) I would hope the Sixers are doing everything they can to get Grizzard here on time, but if for some reason he doesn't that they have Ng lined up to come in at the last minute, if so it's a good turn around from previous administrations who have taken several weeks to replace a player.
did i just praise admin? is it the totally the wrong time for that ;-)

dont they formally have to release hodge b4 signing grizzard,i know they have sacked him but werent they not formally releasing him until they get their money back therefore stopping him from signing intime for another nbl club.
I think a team can have as many imports as they want as long as only two of them play.
From memory the Dragons didn't sack Horvarth just brought in another import and waited until Horvarth could play as a local.

I heard Scott on the pre game media, saying they were hoping to get him. Then ABC radio, just before the game ( Sapwell I think, it was) confirmed that they signed him, on friday nite, our time

What a great opportunity for Grizz. He gets 7 games to show his wares and 'audition' for an import spot for next season.
