C.J played 3 minutes and Knight just 4. Whats the dickhead up to now? Perhaps got down early and tried to save face by saying he did'nt play his main players?

Noticed this on nbl.com.au:
Adelaide had built a two-point game at the half and used their size on the boards to maintain the buffer for the win. The 36ers had an 11-4 advantage on the offensive glass for the match.

This is something we havent heard about Adelaide for a long time that we used our size to win the boards.

Brett Wheeler has rolled his ankle and is set to miss the start of the NBL season.

Townsville are looking at signing Derek Moore to a temporary deal to cover for the loss of Pat Reidy who is out with a knee injury.

Goorjian is still looking for a big man to fill Sydney's final import spot.

i have a good feeling about this season for the 36ers - we really have the goods to deliver regular high scores.

farley, maher, Rychardt, Holmes - all capable of a good haul

Unfortunately not as high scores as our opposition methinks for the most part, 2 of those 4 players couldn't guard the computer i'm on at the moment! A clue: it's not the Aussies!

Also interesting is that Jacob was posting the best assists numbers in the team too which backs up the triple-double predictions of people the other day.

After day one, Holmes had 12 assists (equal with Boucher, MacKinnon, etc), and Grace/McGregor were joint leaders with 14.

Only got 1 in the next two games, but then had a game-high of 4 in the grand final.

I actually think that Maher, Farley and Holmes will draw the best defensive options from opposing teams, and that Rychart will be left to his own devices.

It'd be good to see Holmes step up. It's been coming for a while.

The Kings played with funny line-ups all tournament. I don't know why.

"The Kings played with funny line-ups all tournament. I don't know why"

Because it was a pre-season tournament perhaps?

I hope we didn't have all our cards on the table just yet but our mix of personell seems to be much better than last year.

In the final, it doesn't look like Sydney had many big men on the court. Knight hardly played, Wheeler was out. Their biggest would probably have been Barlow?

Crocs thumped NZ the other night too -- apparently Calvary is looking good, as is Redhage for NZ.
