Lucky or unlucky 13th for CJ?
THE Adelaide 36ers today formalised the news we broke here exclusively on Tuesday that CJ Bruton will be the club's new NBL coach. His appointment is for the next three seasons (at least), succeeding sacked former mentor Conner Henry.
Bruton on Sixers' short list
READY for an NBL head coaching opportunity after being overlooked for the obvious gig in Brisbane, former Bullets assistant CJ Bruton has firmed as the main target of the Adelaide 36ers for the 2021-22 season and beyond.
B&B: 36ers coach revisits his past
ADELAIDE 36ers are in the market for a new NBL coach, so Brad Rosen and I tracked down Scott Ninnis, who won two championships with the club as a player and returned as head coach for two years, to hear what he had to say on our Brad&Boti podcast. We went down Memory Lane as well as a stint in the present.
Bob's Corner: Our Lauren, the women's G.O.A.T?
BOB'S CORNER: Our US correspondent and former import forward BOB CRAVEN has anniversaries and milestones for us to savour this week, but also revisits the most recent outstanding acknowledgement of Australian superstar Lauren Jackson, who starred for his WNBA hometown team, Seattle Storm.
Conner a goner in latest reshuffle
SACKING coaches is nothing new in team sport but after assembling another revamped Adelaide 36ers' NBL roster, maybe it's time the club's GM of basketball, Jeff Van Groningen stepped up to actually coach some of these players he routinely recruits.
B&B: Mitch on why he's a 36er, and much more
PODCAST partner Brad Rosen and I put NBL championship point guard Mitch McCarron through the "griller" in this week's Brad&Boti session, exploring a basketball journey which now brings him to SA and the Adelaide 36ers for the next three seasons. But he's already been to more interesting places than you'd ever guess.
Bob's Corner: Was there a Dream Team before 1992?
BOB'S CORNER: US correspondent Bob Craven is back, providing a further insight into the rift between the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers and Ben Simmons, before taking us back in time to the American Olympic team many consider was the "original" USA Dream Team. And that was right back in Rome in 1960.
B&B: CG43 adds a maiden medal to the resume
UNLESS you're a Melbourne United fan and you've loved him for years, dual-Olympian and now Bronze Medal winner Chris Goulding can be a polarising yet compelling character. But as Brad Rosen and I found for our Brad&Boti podcast, winning the Rose Gold in Tokyo hit the spot for CG43 as it did for every Aussie basketball fan.
Bob's Corner: Ezi on a roll
BOB'S CORNER: Our very own US correspondent and one of Australia's first American imports way back in the Sixties, Seattle-based Bob Craven, is back with updates of how our Opals star Ezi Magbegor is travelling in the WNBA, the latest on Patty Mills and so very much more.
B&B: Reliving Bronze with the great Danny Morseu
THE Boomers' Bronze Medal success at the Tokyo Olympics and Patty Mills' performance moved us all, not the least of which his uncle, dual-Olympic basketballer Danny Morseu. Who better for Brad Rosen and I to talk with at our Brad&Boti podcast than the great man himself, his links including our original indigenous Olympian Michael Ahmatt.
