We should be merrier about Moore
HAD the pleasure yesterday of having lunch with new Basketball Australia CEO Anthony Moore, one of the stars of last week's Pete's Bar Lunch and a breath of hope for us long-suffering fans of the world's greatest game.

The case for missing media
THERE appears to have been a one-man campaign to spank Australia's media for its lack of presence at FIBA's recent World Cup and World Championship campaigns.
All for one, and one for all
THEY were great, there’s no other word for it. These Opals did us proud winning Bronze at FIBA’s World Championship for Women, redefining the meaning of “team”.

Opals can-add-a new scalp tonight
OUR mighty Aussie Opals - and I call them "mighty" because Naismith knows this performance in Turkey has been way above expectations - can add Canada's scalp tonight and march on to the semi finals.
Really it's as easy as ABC

NOW that’s the way to open a World Championship! No second-guessing, no self doubt, no let up defensively, the Opals opened in most impressive fashion tonight against Cuba.
Map of Tasmania relevant again to NBL clubs
IF I was a betting man, I’d be putting the house and land package on Brisbane and Tassie being NBL fixtures in 2015-16.
Tanks for the memories FIBA
IF you have been wondering where the FIBA investigation into Australia's alleged tanking against Angola at the World Cup currently sits, well so has the rest of the world.
