NBL 23/24/25 Season Thread

[ManOfClay]

By my math. that's 1 more wins than last year

But we were dead and buried a couple of months ago and we wanted to sack everyone again.

Still. 6th is ours to lose now.

If anyone can …

 

[Andronicus]

A nice MVP chant going round the Ent Cent when Davis was at the free throw line

Still think Cotton gets it though

Anyone but Cotton is a farce.

 

[ManOfClay]

Anyone but Cotton is a farce.

Why? There’s more to the game than pure scoring, and Perth were winning games without Cotton while Adelaide were a shambles without Davis.

 

[ManOfClay]

Classic nbl coverage. And-1 opportunity (overturned ultimately), but here’s a replay of the other team’s highlight play from a minute earlier.

 

[ManOfClay]

This game is hot garbage

 

[Royces Hart]

Adelaide gonna Adelaide.

Smith-Milner has been good for Brisbane since Harrison went down.

 

[Andronicus]

What's with the hyper-colour graphics?

Pride round.


Adelaide think lack of pride round.

 

[NSWCROW]

Gee i really hope that loss to the Jackjumpers a few weeks ago doesn't come back to bite......

 

[Royces Hart]

Don’t think I recall a more talented but fractured team in the NBL.

And hilarious that the snakes may win the Summer Shootout, hope they hold their clubhouse lead.

 

[Andronicus]

Horrible charge call there.

 

[Borough Blood]

SEM can’t hold a lead for shit

 

[Deathray]

Matt Hurt got hammered three times on drives to the basket for no call in that last quarter. Phoenix should feel a bit ripped off.

SEM got a lot of very friendly calls too.

They can't feel ripped off.

I did say ‘a bit’, but to suggest any away team gets ‘friendly’ calls in Perth is an interesting take.

So you watched the game with a preconceived idea of what would happen.

Makes sense.

I watched the last quarter saw Bryce Cotton turn it on and Matt Hurt get hammered three times on drives.

21 free throws to 10 for the entire game in a 1 point win, but yeah the Perth fans will tell you the Phoenix got a good run…

Are free throws the only calls ever made?

You are bogged man.

The Jackies aren't as much fun when you're watching out of obligation with half your team missing

It feels like fatigue will see the dam wall break any moment now, but so far I would think JJs fans would be pretty happy with this effort

A win and finals very much a possibility with the Taipans last up,

 

[nobbyiscool]

There are plenty of countries around the world where giving up this many double-figure leads would prompt cynics to start asking questions.
