Breakers screwed as usual, Sixers old habits

In: NBL — Sunday, 10 Dec, 2023

MINUS superstar import Milton Doyle, Tasmania still turned the tables - and the screws - on New Zealand in Auckland but it was no fairytale finish for interim 36ers coach Scott Ninnis in Adelaide, Cairns overwhelming his team with a decisive 31-17 final quarter avalanche.

Wow! Hawks pluck eyes out of Wildcats

In: NBL — Saturday, 9 Dec, 2023

ILLAWARRA last night produced arguably its best NBL performance in about a decade when it smashed Perth 100-82 in Wollongong, Sam Froling leading the rout which started with a crushing 38-18 first quarter that included him scoring 11 points inside the first five minutes.

BOB'S CORNER: Giddey woes and no Angel

In: NBA — Saturday, 9 Dec, 2023

BOB'S CORNER: Our man on the spot, US corresondent Bob Craven is back with his take on two ongoing controversies - one involving our very own burgeoning superstar Josh Giddey, the other about NCAA star Angel Reese - and so much more in the way of NBA and college hoops.


Cummings and Goings in a Big Friday

In: NBL — Friday, 8 Dec, 2023

IT'S been a truly bizarre 24 hours with more emerging from inside the Adelaide 36ers' club issues, a power outage crashing the Cairns-Sydney game, import Will Cummings sacked by South East Melbourne and training session video emerging of Sixers captain Mitch McCarron lashing his teammates with a long overdue "read the riot act" spray.

Brad&Boti: Josh Roberts, upsets and poor scheduling

In: NBL, WNBL — Thursday, 7 Dec, 2023

OUR guest of honour on this week's Brad&Boti podcast with Brad Rosen and myself needed no introduction ... because she was a no-show! But we had so much to discuss coming out of the WNBL and NBL rounds - upsets, overtime, it was all happening.

NBL10 Rankings, Tips: Fool's Gold or Emerging Threats?

In: NBL — Thursday, 7 Dec, 2023

PERTH last week exposed defending NBL champion Sydney as not yet where it wants to be while South East Melbourne slowed its slide by outlasting New Zealand. Round 10 concludes with what could be the evidence necessary to either dismiss the Kings or the Phoenix as ready to challenge for the crown when they meet at Qudos Bank Arena. 


WNBL Tips6: Boomers now under microscope

In: WNBL — Wednesday, 6 Dec, 2023

ALL eyes are switched right onto early WNBL pacesetter Melbourne after the Boomers succumbed at home to Perth and now face the Lynx in their home lair this round. Melbourne's past three games have been less than impressive, also barely escaping Bendigo and Canberra who were 7th and 8th at the time.

Great Scott! Bruton axed, Ninnis in as 36ers react to maulings

In: NBL — Wednesday, 6 Dec, 2023

SAY what you like about Scott Ninnis, no-one can dispute the man is a winner. Aligned with CJ Bruton's poor record since being handed the Adelaide 36ers' poison chalice, Ninnis' appointment as an assistant this NBL season was seen by many as positioning him to step up if the inevitable was necessary.


NBL TotW9: Wild round with a wild finish

In: NBL — Tuesday, 5 Dec, 2023

ROUND 9 of the NBL season was a diamond, with so many quality performances and astonishing results throwing up its share of candidates for our coveted Team of the Week accolade. Tasmania setting records, South East back in the winner's circle, Brisbane with two tight wins - there was a lot to love.

WNBL TotW5: Tough round but an easy pick

In: WNBL — Monday, 4 Dec, 2023

IT may have been one of this WNBL season's best rounds but selecting our Team of the Week was not all that difficult, Townsville barely escaping Adelaide, Southside handling Canberra, and on the road, Bendigo staving off Lightning in overtime. So who is left. Hmm, not a lot of chin-stroking required, surely?
