Well, we're nearly half way through the 2011-12 NBL Season and I'm a bit bored so I thought I'd put up some team scoring and defensive averages.

Now, if the NBL ladder went by Marty Clarke's "its not about wins and losses" then it would look (offensively speaking) like this: (can we lobby the NBL for this ladder to be the official one?)
Perth Wildcats
New Zealand Breakers
Adelaide 36ers (I like this ladder)
Gold Coast Blaze
Melbourne Tigers
Sydney Kings
Townsville Crocodiles
Cairns Taipans
Wollongong Hawks
If the ladder went on the average points against then it would be:
Cairns Taipans
New Zealand Breakers
Perth Wildcats
Townsville Crocodiles
Melbourne Tigers
Gold Coast Blaze
Wollongong Hawks
Sydney Kings
Adelaide 36ers
Ok, I've wasted enough time so enjoy. And hopefully the 36ers can give their fans who've traveled to the Gold Coast and those of us back here in Adelaide a great Christmas present by beating the Blaze tonight. Pity its not on OneHD.....
