Wrapping 15: Bullet points
CHRIS Goulding, Adam Gibson, Rhys Martin, Brock Motum and Nathan Jawai are the five big targets the Bullets are aiming at to relaunch Brisbane in the NBL next season.
What a foul up
SERIOUSLY now, 56 fouls, yet so many bad ones missed? If we're talking about how terrific the NBL has been this season, the one place the conversation falters is at the officiating.
And then there were five...
MELBOURNE United's 30-point flogging of the Taipans last night at The Cage will end speculation everywhere other than Cairns that the race for the Final Four now is down to five.
Penney is money again against firm friends
KIRK Penney last night continued his recent NBL domination with 28 points, including five threes, against his former club New Zealand.
Taipans topped, United is back
IF you are among the non-converted it's time to concede, Melbourne United is back.
The Tips & Rankings: Rd15
MARK Worthington plays his 300th NBL game tonight, ironically against the team he was MVP with last season and driving his new club's quest to reach the playoffs.
Heritage round always a good look
HERITAGE round is upon us, a chance - in most cases - to relive something of our NBL teams' glorious pasts, and in others', acknowledge their support.
Wrapping 14: 'Spygate' grey area
WHETHER Melbourne United cheated or not to secure its win over Illawarra - and only the team's inner sanctum truly knows - the fact is the NBL's television coverage was compromised by the possibility it did happen.
Oo yeah, it's WIDE open now
LAST night proved it - Adelaide and Cairns remain very much alive in the quest for NBL post-season positions.
It's back open again
THE NBL title race is back open again - presuming it ever wasn't - after Melbourne last night held off Illawarra 97-96 at The Cage.
