Not quite the NBL, but the NZ NBL (not worthy of its own thread). This Indian Panthers saga has been one ugly experiment.

Adelaide have signed Bryce Cotton for 3 years.
Huge news.
Meanwhile the Taipans don't even have a coach, let alone a roster. I hate this club and i hate this competition. Wondering if i even bother renewing my season tickets for the 18th year. It's just not fun.

If John Rillie wasn’t there he would’ve stayed put.

Seems that way

This is huge for the Breakers

It's also good that the Breakers are returning to their Kiwi roots by enticing some players jettisoned under Walsh back to the club.

Definitely time to move on from the previous owners. All the signs were there that they were purely in it for monetary gain. The new guy seems much more committed to being successful for New Zealand and for the fans. This is a good start

Not NBL but junior World Cup, NZ boys got a good win against Argentina. Argentina came home hitting lights out but we held them off.
We won our second game against Mali by more than 20. Interestingly Mali upset Serbia in their first game. We have Serbia tomorrow.
And check what happened in the Cameroon and Oz game. Ummm crazy

And now into the SFs to play USA.
@Bovidae I reckon we are a strong chance based on what I’ve seen from both teams. We have the athleticism but they do play with high pace. The QF against Canada provided a good blueprint to how we could beat them.

OUCH.
Just finished watching the game, well most of it anyway. USA were on fire. Their ball pressure was elite and we committed turnover after turnover. USA coach had the luxury of bringing on fresh players to keep that pressure on.
One positive, our 7 footer Halaifonua looked the part from an offensive standpoint. He got very limited opportunity at Georgetown this year as a freshman, so hoping his coaches will see the value he bought to this tourney and get him more game time.
