Basketball On The Internet.

WE'RE off to a sad start on this episode of the Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast with Joey Wright, the game losing two more substantial figures this past week while we still mourn the 2025 deaths of Darryl Pearce, Rick Longley and Alan Hughes. And on the brink of the NBL semi finals, we have much to discuss and dissect.

The episode starts with a tribute to Alan Dawe and Kevin Braswell, recognising their contributions to the game. And look out because the segment includes the answer to an NBL trivia question regarding the Tigers.

We break down the upcoming Melbourne v Perth NBL semi final series and the key matchup between Illawarra and SEM Phoenix.

Viewer questions bring some heated discussions: Could Chase Buford be the next coach of Brisbane?

Who are the most underrated players, past or present? (Dusty Rychart shoutout!)

Will Scott Roth retire after his contract and what does Tasmania’s ownership change mean for the JackJumpers?

Joey also sets the record straight on his alleged altercation with then Perth coach Trevor Gleeson, discusses Ben Madgen and concerns about the loss of local talent, and reacts to Adelaide’s constant changes since he left.

Plus, did Jason Cadee take Joey by surprise when it came to coaching readiness? And of course, sure thing playoff predictions to close out the show.
