Ill start by saying that I think the Nuggets and Saints are the teams to beat.
(Also could a Mod shift this to the NZ section, sorry)

Hawks could be strong too but lack size if Kareem Johnson doesnt get naturalised

Gotta support my boys!
Go southland sharks & supercity rangers!
If only Horvath would play in the NBL again, dominates in NZ.
A couple of interesting import signings in Andrew Warren (ex-Cairns), Erron Maxey (ex-Gold Coast) and Kevin Braswell (ex-NZB/Melb). I quite liked Maxey's game and was a bit surprised the Blaze didn't re-sign him.
Can't believe Mark Dickel is still going around is he still coach of the Albanian national team?

Erron Maxey's not listed as an import. That can't be right..
I'd love to be able to watch the NZNBL but can never find a streaming link!

Andrew Warren, now there is a guy the 36ers could use, great shooter!

I reckon Warren would come back a much better player 2nd time around.
Warren has played good preseason for the Saints. They've signed a 2nd import to Bryant Markson 6'6 Small Forward who last played with Shiga Lakestars in Japan
Just not in the NBL in general. He shot 39% from the field and 34% on 3's in 2011/12 with the Taipans.
