Great signing.
What's the worst thing that could happen to the Sixers next season? They finish last (unlikely), but at least they would do it with style!

good appointment, bring back some of adelaides favourite sons!
Great appointment but what will happen with his roles with the Lions and STARplex.
He has had significant input into structured player development programs out there.
What about their ABL Women's side???

Brooksy has said he'll honour the ABL Women's Team in the off season of the NBL.

"The fact I can retain my job there [Starplex] in a part-time capacity is great because I love it.
"In the same way, I'm going to honour my commitment to coaching the Lions' women which shouldn't be that much of a problem because the season is in the NBL off-season.
Great signing!
KB is a all time fav of mine and has a fair bit of coaching experience in a variaty of roles and leagues.
Hopefully Joey and KB will develop a good, entertaining game plan and if they can find imports as good as they were as players we will be in good shape!

KB is a great guy. Really personable and cares about what he does. Hopefully this is a winning combo for the 36ers.
Great match for Joey - cool demeanour and complimentary skills. Similar to the role Rat played as assistant coach at Bullets and Blaze.

Credit where its due - Dean and the crew definitely aren't sitting on their hands. Stadium sorted, quality coaching panel appointed, merger with Lightning, and most players re-signed. We pick up one or two quality imports and management should give themselves a pat on the back and take a lot of credit for setting up the team with every opportunity for a successful season.

^ Dr6 summed it up. Really excited by Wright and KB coming on-board.
Up-tempo basketball from a passionate squad is what any fan loves to watch.
Very optimistic about the next few years.

Dr6, also credit to players for committing to long term deals in Adelaide, picking up their options (Creek) or extending (Gibson).
SOS and what's left of the active owners deserve a turn of luck with on court results. I thought we could do OK last year so not going to get ahead of myself this off-season, but it's a decent spot to be in.

Will the 36ers vs. Wildcats rivalry grow more fiercely in coming years?
I sure hope so

Jack Toft, not sure how you can finish last with style.

Look like great moves to move club forward which should not be hard after having Abott and Costello for last few years.
Time now to putting extra players together before door closes on us .
