Comparing NBL 2021 Rosters
From the "Landale signs at United" thread, a post there showed teams' NBL 2021 possible starting 5s.
Looking at the United and Breakers proposed starters, comparing spot for spot is tantalising. Especially Patterson v Hopson.
Breakers/United
T.Webster/McCarron
C.Webster/Goulding
Patterson/Hopson
Delany/Barlow
Iverson/Landale
Coincidentally, both teams probably have the same (suggested) weakness, the 4 spot, Delaney and Bairstow. Not that they are not great at their spots, just that that their team-mates seem a class above. Substitute Bolden into Breakers and let him go with the 2 Websters and Patterson while Creek (at United) is running around with his (NBL) Boomers' mates, both in those 4 spots and you may have 2 x All Star teams. Of course, Iverson is un-tried but reports of him are good.
This is how that would look:
Breakers / United
T.Webster / McCarron
C.Webster / Goulding
Patterson / Hopson
BOLDEN* / CREEK*
Iverson / Landale
What you think? Any other match-ups worth showing?
And, as the thread-title mentions money, "highest paid player in NBL", imagine the cost of these inclusions to their budgets.
I am sure there are others that I am not up to recognising, up front. Care to add your thoughts on other (or these) teams' comparisons?
