Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE: Wildcat insights as NBL pivots

YES all right. My podcast partner Joey Wright DID attend the Perth Wildcats' shootaround ahead of their NBL match against the 36ers in Adelaide. But as we explain in our Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast, there was nothing sinister about it and we did get some revelations from it.
Walker steers United back on track as Phoenix flummoxed
AFTER having its 9-0 season start interrupted by NSW's NBL pair, Melbourne flexed its defensive muscle to rattle South East Melbourne in their top-of-the-table Throwdown, playmaking import Tyson Walker showing the way with a 24-point, 6-rebound, 6-assist tour de force.
Wildcats complete the mission and Breakers broken
NEW Zealand shot itself in the foot in both of its NBL Round 8 losses, this time in Sydney, while Dylan Windler led Perth to a competent win in Adelaide, reassuring Wildcat fans that there is "life after Bryce" even though Cotton still paced the 36ers with 23 points and seven assists.
King Mo rules but Hawks rise up regardless
MOJAVE King was king of the court last night in Cairns, the Next Star showing he actually is a Right Now star, banging in a career-best 32 points on 13-of-16 shooting to keep the Taipans competitive against a defending NBL champion which now is on a roll that would be scaring the rest of the league.
When 'home sweet home' means lousy bedsheets

THERE was just not much more Bryce Hamilton could have done to get Tasmania across the line against South East Melbourne last night in its jinxed Silverdome venue in Launceston, after Adelaide earlier outlasted New Zealand at their equally parlous "home" venue in Christchurch.
United's travails with Javale leave Hawks soaring

WHATEVER United tried was to no avail, Melbourne just could not stop Javale, the Hawks' 3-time NBA champion centre with a career-best 37 points as Illawarra formally apologised to its fans for last week's 42-point home defeat in the best way possible - an emphatic win over the NBL's finest.
Brad&Boti: Burger Boss launches the round
BRAD Rosen has spent a day in Adelaide-town and finally sampled the wears of one of our past sponsors, Burger Boss, and you can tell he was stoked. He enjoyed it so much, we led this week's Brad&Boti podcast with it before turning to the major events of WNBL Round3 and NBL Round 7.
What We Learnt #7: Everyone has a number in the L column
WE learnt plenty in Round 7, last night's classic clash between previously undefeated Melbourne and visiting Sydney ending that United streak at 9-0, but meanwhile question marks hover over teams such as Perth, Illawarra, Tasmania and New Zealand, Kings guard Kendric Davis' 34-point haul the round's single biggest.
Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE: Your chance to win a great prize

WOW, Melbourne United lost overnight to Sydney in a match played sadly after Joey Wright and I recorded this week's Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast, so we'll get to that next time. But hey, our sponsor this week "Massage Life" is offering a $600 competition prize, unfortunately only for Adelaide viewers.
X-factor steps up, Hawks alive but 36ers survive

DEFENDING NBL champion Illawarra produced an amazing form reversal to just miss scraping the 36ers' major scalp in Adelaide, South East reasserted its bona fides against Perth, after Xavier Cooks was the X-factor in Sydney's win over Brisbane and Jack McVeigh enjoyed a successful return to Tasmania.
