On the SEM Tasmania radio broadcast recently Lima Santamaria was introduced as the architect of the NBL Next Stars program. While I understand he is the current CEO of the program can he be considered the architect or did someone else do all the groundwork only to be now conveniently forgotten?

There will always be people behind the scenes who don't have the name to receive the credit they deserve.

The originators of the system are Joey Wright and the 36ers amongst others with Terrence Ferguson. NBL took the idea and made the NextStar a non import position .

You're expecting a radio station to know the roles of NBL personalities which is aroad too far for some.

Not expecting the radio station to know anything but you would think that Liam would correct them and give credit where credit is due.

Why would Liam start doing giving credit where credit's due now, when he's never done it before.

Inflated claims = inflated salary, so I agree with Footloose.

The Next Stars is an exact copy of what Joey and the 36ers did. LK and co had no idea High School kids could be monetised like they are doing now.
It's not unique it's not novel. It only exists because of what was done in Adelaide.
"Vast difference" LOL
