    Here's a summary.

    I hadn't realised that the Hawks had signed Brian Goorjian as their new coach. No players signed yet though.

    Yep, new owners went for a big name coach straight up.

    Season doesn't kick off until December this year, so heaps of time for rosters to form

    @Bovidae Gorj doesn’t need the money given he’s been on good money for the last decade in China. Just loves the game and Australia is home.

    There’s a few whispers that Hawks will land one of the big Aussie FA’s.

    The final of the NZ NBL tonight:

    GF-Tile.jpg

    Otago didn't even have a team in 2019 and Manawatu finished last. Using the draft system to even out teams has been a good idea. The Nuggets have won all 4 games between the teams this season.

    NUGGETS
    Jordan Hunt 19.5pts, 6rbs, 1.8 treys per game
    Jordan Ngatai 18.6pts, 5.7rbs. 4.5ast, 2.1 treys per game
    Jarrod Kenny 11.5pts, 3.8rbs, 5.1ast per game
    
    JETS
    Tom Vodanovich 22.3pts, 10.2rbs, 4.2 treys per game
    Hyrum Harris 14.5pts, 11.5rbs, 6.6ast per game
    Jayden Bezzant 17.9pts, 3.3rbs, 3.6ast per game

    A like-for-like replacement for the Breakers. Two more spots available on the 10-man roster.

    The NZ Breakers have signed former Brisbane Bullets' star Lamar Patterson to a one-year deal, further bolstering their already impressive roster for NBL21.
    
    The 28-year-old Patterson earned himself All-NBL First Team honours in each of his two seasons in the league as a member of the Bullets.
    
    Representatives of Patterson, who has played 40 NBA games, approached the Breakers last month after learning Scotty Hopson was still mulling over a contract sent to him in March.

    @Bovidae a good pick up. Patterson is a bull. Got an array of offensive moves and like his competitiveness.

    geez that's a good signing. Must have chucked money at him, because there is no way the Bullets wouldn't have picked him up

    Plenty of issues to work through before the NBL can start.

    A couple of Kiwis in the news.

    Yanni Wetzell exercised an European out-clause in his contract and is released by South East Melbourne 3 weeks after signing.

    Cairns Taipans have signed F Jordan Ngatai.

    I'm sort of struggling to see how the season gets started.

    I don't think the level of money is involved to get the same leeway as the AFL

    Melbourne United signs Scotty Hopson.

    The Breakers made him an offer but they couldn't agree terms. Melbourne must have some 💰 💰

    Melbourne doing their usual, buying the best players from other teams.

    I assume it will go the way it usually goes, and they still won't win the comp
