Brisbane had a 4 point last quarter.

That’s 4 points too many IMO

[Gozu]

United win the series 2-0

Perth vs Melbourne GF series it is.

[Gozu]

Andrew Bogut is expected to sign with the Golden State Warriors in the next 48 hours for the rest of this NBA season.

He doesn't have an NBA out-clause in his contract so is expected to return to Sydney next season.

[Brodlach]

Gee our league is just getting better. Players now being picked up straight out of it. Must be getting a lot of respect from the NBA

[DOC]

The grand final series promises plenty. Hard to tip.

i will have Perth 3/2.

[Gozu]

Brian Goorjian has thrown his hat in the ring for the Sydney Kings job he's spent the past decade coaching in China.

On the NBL GF I reckon Melbourne will win it I think they're an even better balanced team than last season. Best coached team in the comp IMO.

Jars mentioned that Saturday morning on the radio.
Wasn’t sure if it was just his usual BS story.

Nah definitely not, Findon has lots of other activities on as it’s owned by the Scouts


Talk they will play at a revamped Memorial Drive too

Without their main tenant how could the other teams/groups afford the rent at Findon?

[Brodlach]

Wouldn’t be surprised if the Scouts would rather them not be there

[amber_fluid]

Wouldn’t the 36ers pay the majority of the rent though?
Someone has to pay it surely?

[Brodlach]

You’d think so but I reckon the upkeep would be a fair whack.

They have so many functions etc there, almost every weekend and during the week. Adelaide train at Forrestville regularly

Can have more scout jamborees

[Gozu]

It wouldn't surprise me if this is a bit of a bluff from the 36ers owner to try and get the rent lowered at Titanium Security Arena.

Supposedly they're considering just playing a few home games at AEC next season with the majority still being at TSA.

As Brodlach said the main plan seems to be to play at an revamped Memorial Drive facility.

[amber_fluid]

Logistically how would they play at AEC anyway?
Makeshifts courts?

They play netball there already at times

[Spargo]

Yep, drop in court.

[Brodlach]

Trying to capitalise on the ‘City feel’ if they play at Memorial Drive too
