This is the ladder thus far:

36ers 6 5 1
Hawks 6 5 1
Kings 7 5 2
Wildcats 6 4 2
Breakers 6 3 3
Razorbacks 7 3 4
Tigers 8 3 5
Pirates 6 2 4
Bullets 9 3 6
Crocodiles 6 2 4
Taipans 7 2 5

The Breakers could be a surprise this season, while the teams from Queensland have been absolutely abysmal :shock:

hard to say but at the moment its looking better talent and financial wise since each team had an extra $36,000 to add towards their player salary caps.

Australian Government needs to support the NBL...

anyways- I dont think our league will ever be that great cause if you think about it, NBA is recruiting the best talent and then after that is CBA and other American Leagues... then you have European Leagues... so our NBL would be prob about C or D grade league...

Financially, if our League could xpand and get FTA coverage maybe we'll get better cause Euro players might wanna play down under... and thats all about money.

- Maybe we should have aussie teams in an Asian Champions league as has been suggested before.

maybe but the league has been expanding plus international sponsors are stepping in. I agree about the goverment part but aslong as howards in goverment all money for sports will go to don bradman foundations/memorials and cricket in general.


btw i mentioned this i think in another thread andy bougut is apparently gonna announce something big in a week or so.

it is probably if he is declaring eligitability... although I wouldnt mind him jumping in now... which is unlikely because of his college and the fact thta he would not get a guaranteed contract

I think he would get a better contract if he were in the Draft and in the lottery... 3/4 year guranteed contract would prob be better than any team he might play for... unless Bobcats would want him! :)

Well... we'll wait and see. Whered u get this news anyway?

Fuck Fuck Fuckity Fuck Fuck I just recived word that Terrace had an appeal about the game they lost to Churchie too because Churchie had too many younger guys on the team. What the fuck Terrace can't handle the fact they lost to a younger team let alone lose the GPS premiership......fucking sore losers.

Good to see the Bullets have another win during their 5th straight double header this season. Shame about rucker being injured hopefully he won't be out for too long (if it's possible ligiment damage).
