McVeigh comes through in near Cairns botch

JACK McVeigh tickled a triple-double as Cairns tried hard to lose its first NBL home game of the season against Brisbane, but failed and prevailed 83-82 anyway, the Bullets simply unable to fully utilise dominant centre Tyrell Harrison with the game and the road win there for the taking.
Phoenix phail as Melbourne rampage home
SOUTH East Melbourne coach Josh King had it right post the Phoenix's 20-point loss to crosstown rival United last night when he said: "It was a man's game and we weren't ready to play like men." Consequently Melbourne went on a rampage to seize a 20-9 edge in all-time "Throwdown" matches.
Townsville the target for WNBL preseason tip
SO much has happened in the WNBL's off-season with the league under a new ownership model and finally being treated with the respect and professionalism it long has warranted but never seemed able to grasp. Champions, superstars, Olympians, WNBA imports - we've known it all along but now, at last, the mainstream world is being exposed to our talented women's comp.

HOW good was the NBL season-opener in Hobart between Melbourne and the home Tassie JackJumpers? It was at finals level and a winning choice for our game of the week as Joey Wright agreed on episode 1 of Season 2 of the Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast.
Brad&Boti: What an Amazing Starting Week!
THE NBL's opening round is in the record books and we have a much broader perspective of how teams may go, although both Brad Rosen and I still remain cautious of what Illawarra, Adelaide and Sydney could be as we discuss it all on our Brad&Boti podcast.
What We Learnt #1

The first huge question though is can the 36ers hold Montrezl Harrell, a late withdrawal from their team against Panathinaikos yesterday?
United superb, Kings blow it, 36ers fall as Hawks fly
MELBOURNE, with import centre Jesse Edwards dominant, savaged a rudderless New Zealand today before Sydney blew several wide-open chances to send its match with Partizan into overtime while in Singapore, NBL champion Illawarra crushed Japan's B-League champion Utsunomiya Brex at FIBA's Intercontinental Cup.
Phoenix flatten Taipans, Bryce fires in Perth
SOUTH East Melbourne yesterday seized on Cairns' glaring vulnerability to produce a record win against the Taipans, import John Brown alight, before Bryce Hamilton gave Wildcats fans another reason to remember a "Bryce" as he steered Tasmania to a substantial road win in Perth.
What a difference a stud centre can make
WHAT a difference in your team perception the return of two potential stars makes as we saw in Auckland where Tyrell Harrison and Alex Ducas showed just why writing off Brisbane was premature as the Bullets further harmed the credibility of "homecourt advantage" with a 104-95 win.

TO be completely fair, Milton Doyle was not exactly enjoying a stand-out game for Melbourne in his NBL homecoming opener against Tasmania. But there it was. When United needed a big bucket, like the three he struck to end the first quarter for the lead, or the step-back in the second to again restore the lead, there he was.
