Who you buy tickets through, going over in november and going to go to atleast one game, probably in LA or NY


Yep def have a look at the seating map then compare sites with prices. You can get the odd bargain. I've used stub Hub a lot. But found razorgator to be a little cheaper

Always liked this guy as a player, as well as Brad Newley. Thought they both could have been given a shot some time ago.

Can't see him getting many minutes at the Clips but it's always good to see Aussies in the 'A.

Record number of Aussies in the NBA 7 of them and still could be 8 depending if Baynes accepts the Spurs qualifying offer or not.

Andrew Bogut, Golden State
Patty Mills, San Antonio
Matthew Dellavedova, Cleveland
Dante Exum, Utah
Brock Motum, Utah
Cameron Bairstow, Chicago
Joe Ingles, LA Clippers

Aron Baynes, San Antonio ?

If Baynes has an offer, surely he's playing somewhere in the NBA. Can't imagine he's weighing up Europe or the NBA, can only be another team or still negotiating whether he can get a better offer.

Probably not, but he might just be a good fit for them. Small forward is one of their weaker spots and his newly found shooting range means he can space the floor. Plus his ball handling skills might come in handy when Paul subs out. He's always been an awkward player to defend, so he might just work nicely picking up scraps.

He was holding out from re-signing with the Spurs all off-season and had hoped with his play at the WC to get a better offer as the QO is for only $1.1m this season but after flirting with signing in Slovenia and China supposedly he's agreed to re-sign with the Spurs now and is in San Antonio to take his physical.

Aron Baynes has re-signed with the Spurs to a 1 year deal for $2.1m

I would've thought he might get a bit more than just a $1m raise after his WC performance but maybe that comes for him next year.

Unfortunately 3 Aussies were cut by NBA teams today Joe Ingles by the Clippers, Brock Motum by the Jazz and Jordan Vandenberg by the Knicks.

Vandenberg was only signed the day before so the Knicks could retain his D-League rights.
