Tyrone Bogues was no hack either. I didn't realise he was only 5' 3" though :o.

Roflmao. Spud Webb is a legend. I'm a similar height, and whilst I could touch the rim, I could never slam. Wish I was black.

I'm around about the same height as well JohnBoy, somehow can't imagine myself jumping that high either lol
Just a couple of impediments lol :rollin

12 Greek Gods smashed the USA in basketball tonight. It was goodnight charlie for the US when they let us into the lead. Americans- overated, overhyped, a rabble of a nation who got there arses kicked tonight :cheers
-
We stuffen choked in the final. A disgraceful performance.
-
England invented soccer and spread it to the world then started losing. Same with the USA and basketball. it is now a genuine world game and its inventors have no divine right to win.
if there were fully fledged NBA or say NBA Asia teams in Sydney and melbourne they would attract 15,000 a night. Bball is huge and getting bigger in much of the world.
-
Dudes if any of you are sports nuts like me try this out.
I went to the Final last year at the Cage against Sydney and the atmosphere and noise is as good as any.
Have a look and try it out if there are any tickets left, you won't be dissapointed.
2007 Philips NBL Grand Final - Melbourne Tigers Vs. Brisbane Bullets
State Netball & Hockey Centre, Parkville, VIC
Sun 4 Mar 2007, 07:30 PM
-
I did a search and it came up with front row tickets North A 34-35!! $77 dollars though! I'd love to go but it's a bit hard to justify that when I can watch it on Foxtel. The atmosphere would be terrific though.
I love the Tigers, but I think they are going to struggle to hold on to the title this year. Brisbane are very deep and are sharing the ball beautifully. They've been able to rest up Bradtke and McKinnon, (although the weeks rest is good for D-Mac, Stiff and Anstey who has a sore ankle) and Ebi Ere is on fire. Should be a great series!
-
Go the Bullets :thumbsup
-
Great win by the Tigers tonight. Forgot it was and turned it on at half time to see that they were down by 9 points.
It didnt take them long to get back to the lead and they ran away with it in the end winning by abour 14 points i think it was. Its a shame they choked on Friday night up in Brisvegas.
:gotigers
-
Yeah Tucker and DT exploded in the 3rd quarter, that lead they gained was never really secure though. The tigers lifted in defence in the second half too and have thrown out the Bullets offensive rhythm a little bit, can't wait for Game 3 and 4.
-
Its a shame they choked on Friday night up in Brisvegas.
Yeah, they choked all right ::)
-
Cannot find any coverage of NBL games tonight, except Sydney on Fox
But the other games, can't even get scores.
Wondering how it survives against the AFL, Soccer etc

When Jordan was doing his thing in the late 80s/early 90s, the NBL was huge. Sellout crowds of 15,000 to the Tennis centre for Tigers vs Giants. There were even comments about basketball taking over and attracting kids away from footy. Once Jordan retired and the fad died it fell away big time.
-
Did the Tiges win well, because I had them at -13.5
And Adelaide -7.5
And would like to know who got the highest points in each game.
But apart from that I don't want much :lol

Tigers won 96-90
Adelaide won 114-108 over the Dragons
Bullets 113-84 Crocs
In response to an earlier post the Tigers and Melbourne Magic had some titanic finals tussles during the early to mid 90's in front of huge crowds. In fact all 3 Melb teams
had a big rivalry against each other and all won titles in consecutive years.
In 92 Magic d Tigers in Grand Final
In 93 Tigers d Wildcats in Grand Final
In 94 Giants d 36'ers.
Back then it was huge and on Prime Time on Channel 10.

The Melbourne derby was close. Packed house at the Cage too.
Melbourne Tigers 101 (Anstey 19, Corletto 15, Barlow 13)
South Dragons 98 (Holmes 22, Ingles 20, Burston 19)

Their back again - anyone with kids its good value.
Get in early and I reckon the cheapest seats are the best.
You can also just buy all kids tickets they don't check :whistle :shh
-
I use to follow the bucket-ball until they took my team away many years ago
Now have absolutely no interest in it at all
-
The basketball admin in Oz must have taken their advice from the old Soccer Australia when you have a successful club like the Sydney Kings in financial trouble and with poor crowds.
Anyway the Melbourne Tigers have levelled the GF series 1-1 tonight 104-93.
-
At least I got to yell out GO TIGES :rollin
May be a rarity again this year.
-
Melbourne scrapped home in Sydney by just 2 points tonight :clapping.
-
Tigers won in Sydney 85-73 and are NBL Champions :thumbsup
-
Great stuff Tigers,
should have been over the other night. Atleast they got the job done :thumbsup
-
Thanks to them we finally get to hear the RFC theme song on SEN ;D.
Melbourne showing again it's the sporting capital :thumbsup.
-

They played the Melbourne Tigers one and then ours straight after and Mark Fine said it was one thing they could learn from the RFC - get a decent theme song and replace 'yellow and black' with 'yellow and red'.

Series 1 all, gunna be tough against the dragons but fingers crossed I'm off for my once a year tommoz :thumbsup

If Anstey gets rubbed out it could be all over. Mind you it didn't look that bad.
Brian Goorjian is a freak of a coach. Just has that midas touch in basketball. Took over a rabble of a club and now they're just one game away from the championship.

1 to go tuckerman - let's put the franchise to the sword.
-
The Melbourne Tigers have asked the NBL to report Anstey again lol.
-
Anstey was very good last night....still takes too many 3's IMO. Still better than Corletto though, I think I've seen him hit one 3 for the whole series and it was banked ::)
I wonder which Melbourne Tigers will turn up tomorrow night!
-
This Grand Final series has gone the way of the home team, yet last year the Tigers were able to beat the Kings in Game 5 in Sydney. Hopefully that successful experience last year will help get the Tigers over the line this year.
-
Home team won easily tonight unfortunantely.
Dragons 102
Tigers 81
Dragons new NBL champions as they win the Grand Final series 3-2.
-

Best coach of any sport in Australia. Last night proved it again.
-
Is anyone here excited about Julius Hodge signing up with the Melbourne Tigers?
I am :gotigers
HE CAN PLAY!!! He should lift the Tigers out of their scoring doldrums too, they can't always depend on Corletto banking 3's!
I know Hodge left the 36er's under a cloud, however, if I wasn't getting paid on time in my job, I wouldn't stick around for very long either. Please pay him on time Melbourne Tigers. It's not much to ask!
-
This has just happened in the Bucks Suns game. I hate seeing this sort of Injury on the TV but I follow the Bucks and he is the most Important player on the team this season and his loss will mean the end of season for them.
This a a huge man, imagine the forces.
Sad day for him, the Bucks and for Aussies at the World Champs this year.

Broke his right hand, sprained his wrist and dislocated his elbow requiring surgery. You had to turn away when you first saw the replay. That was a shocker :-X. A shame too as it was just before the playoffs and Bogut was in awesome form. Hope the Bogieman comes back as good as new :pray.
-
Poor old Bogey man seems to be cursed. Hope it is just a minor setback and he's back dominating the paint for the Deer next season.
-
Bogut has been traded by Milwaukee to the Golden State Warriors.

God stuffing god. What does this mean for Kwame when he returns :banghead
Means instead of having a delusional Mark Jackson thinking he is a legitmate NBA player, Scott Skiles will be more than happy for him to earn his $7,000,000 sitting on the bench. :thumbsup
-
You drunk? Kwame is close to the best defender in the league. He raped Howard earlier in the year and was sensational for the Bobcats last year. not sure how much Kwame Brown you watching, guy. Not sure at all. you been reading too much draft bust nonsense.
-
:rollin :lol Close to the best defender in the league. :lol :rollin Almost as funny as Kwame taking credit for Andrew Bynum's success.
Please point out the game where he "raped Howard."
He is a solid defender but he's a complete offensive liability. He's lucky he's got size or he would have been out of the league or glued to the bench, Adam Morrison style, years ago.
-
yep, you're clearly not watching any Kwame Brown basketball. You believe the journos who try to have a whack at him like they did with the Bynum stuff. ;D Please point out where he took credit for Bynum's success ;D and please don't say it was when he said "I taught him everything he knows" which was clearly a tounge in cheek comment. did you miss the game this year where Bynum could hardly score on Brown? He got all of his points when Biedrins was on the court, just like Howard did last season when Brown was off and the Bobcats had to chuck some scrub on.
There are very few centers who can score on Kwame without having to bust their ass. He's a very good defender and close to the best post defender in the league. He wasn't picked #1 in the draft and still playing for good money 10 years later for no reason. He's a solid player. He's average on offense but not a liability. He sets a lot of good screens and averages about 8 points.There's a reason why Miami and Boston were chasing him.
-
and LMAO at the lucky he has size comment. That's like saying "lucky Nash isn't 7 foot otherwise he wouldn't be able to play PG"
-

Raped Howard again yesterday. Rejected him a couple of times and how many points did Howard score on Kwame? 2.

Howard's playing like a dud though
-
True but he got bent over big time by Brown. Took it very personally too. The refs came to his rescue by calling pretend fouls on Kwame.

Only recently got more into the NBA. Chose the Bobcats last year to follow as I didn't have a team and they just appealed to me, rookie mistake haha!

Australian basketball in crisis once again. The NBL could be down to just 7 teams which would put the comp's future in jeopardy.

Indoor sports in Australia will always struggle due to the fact that TV rights and sponsorships do not earn enough to keep them afloat. Plus if you can only fit 4 figure crowds into your stadiums, gate takings and merchandising just wont cut it either.

Especially when they leave the roof open and it rains.

I was into NBA massively during the mid 90's when basketball cards were the hottest thing going around.
NBA Action was a staple every Saturday lunchtime.
I still follow it a little bit now, like the Warriors because of the big Bogey man, also like the Bulls from the Jordan days and now with D. Rose.
-
Will take an interest now that Brett Brown is head coach at Phillie
He was the last coach of the my old team now departed North Melbourne Giants who played back in the days when the NBL was a decent competition ;D
Disgraceful what they did to the Giants all those years ago with that "merger" that created the Titans - haven't been to a basketball game since the Giants disappeared :'(

Yep Knicks for the love affair I have with New York City that has grown in my adult life.
Loved Patrick Ewing and John Starks in the 90's was shattered when Hakeem Olajuwon and the Rockets beat us in 7 games in 1994. Nowadays Carmelo Anthony is a gun.
Back in the 1990's when the NBA was at its peak here I obviously loved Jordan but hated the Bulls, loved Reggie Miller at Indiana and Shaun Kemp at Seattle and I loved NBA Jam played that at the pinny joint in the Deli at La Trobe Uni back in the day. ;D

Yep Portland with Clyde Drexler and Utah with John Stockton come to mind. Knicks in 94, Orlando Magic who were top dogs in the East with Shaq got swept in 95 by the 6th ranked Rockets led by Olajuwon. That was the height of the sport when MJ was at his peak even when he came back from his baseball hiatus can still remember the hype and his Bulls 45 singlet.
Can remember every night the sport bulletins back then on the news would just show a snippet of a MJ highlight after another. He really was a freak of a player.

I started following Miami in '04. Rookie Wade. Sort of liked the Lakers through school and poo just because everyone else did and then decided to actually follow it properly. Actually jumped off a bandwagon to barrack for an average team and ride the lows of '08 to the excitement of hoping Beasley might become something. LOLLLLLL :banghead

Was off work last week so got to watch a fair bit of Mike and Mike on ESPN. Knicks in ruins, reckon Melo is as good as gone. Been a bazillion rumours on destination from Bulls to Rockets, but most interesting I read the other day was that Bosh, James and Wade will consider a pay cut if it means they can land Melo under free agency. If that happened may as well just not play the next 5 seasons and write them up the trophies now.
-
...but apart from all that you're not a big basketball fan eh?
-
I'll barrack for two flies climbing up a wall if it were a sport.
-
Baseball can get stuffed though.

That comment will get you some quiet time from one of the mods! ;D

He can get stuffed too ;D :outtahere

That rumour of Melo coming to Miami has been around for a while. Sounds ridiculous but realistically there is only one ball on the court for them to play with. :shh
Just watching ESPN Clips v Warriors from today. Geez Big Baby Davis has put on 20kg since I last saw him. Elite athlete.
-
Warriors good to watch since Iguodala switched over from the Nuggets. Really athletic and aggressive for a big bloke.
Speaking of Clippers, how goes old mate Sterling :lol

:lol :lol

James - cavs

If you want to chase titles fair enough, but don't like and say you wanna go "home" ::)

He is from Akron and grew up 30 mins from Cleveland.
He has two young kids and a third on the way and wanted his kids to grow up in Cleveland.
I'm not a fan of Lebron, but he isn't lying and has decided to go "home", and i reckon that's pretty cool personally.
-
Obviously doesn't mean much to him if he's moving back now, conveniently when Heat are on the decline ::). On another note, wait for all the "long time" Heat fans suddenly become "long time" Cleveland fans ;D. Seen some good memes about unburning jerseys ;D

I was saying something similiar to that this morning. All the sudden life long Cavs fans will appear everywhere. I'm sure Cavs gear will take over Rebel Sport soon.

Baynes, fair enough, but how can anyone that calls themselves a sports reporter in Australia not recognise Mills. When I saw this the other day I thought imagine if Julian de Poop hurt Mills shoulder and got sued by the Spurs ;D
-
Great for Aussie basketball to have Aussies on both sides in the NBA finals :thumbsup. Hopefully everyone stays injury free over the next few years and we get to see Bogut and Dellavedova as well as Paddy Mills and Aron Baynes all playing together in the same Boomers team.
-
And Irving if FIBA ever let him. Our starting 5 would be as good as any top NBA team.
Anyway, great to see Heat drop away and their 'fans' all go into hiding... only to come out as Cavs fans ::) though in a 5 man team it goes to show just how good Lebron is. Could probably even carry the Pistons to a ring .... :pray :pray :lol If there is anyone who is going to be as great as Jordan at the end of their careers it is Lebron though he probably won't catch him in rings.

Ben Simmons goes behind the back and finishes at the rim!
VIDEO: https://twitter.com/NBA/status/932057964499922944
He's a freak!

In before he gets "injured" before every Olympics and never plays for Australia again.... :shh
-
He's not Bogut :-\.
Simmons had another double double yesterday. Apparently that's 11 already in only the 16 games he's played so far :o. The 76ers have also won 7 of their last 10 thanks to him to be now 9-7.
-
A career night for @BenSimmons25 with 31 points, 18 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
https://twitter.com/sixers/status/936097985758339073
And he might be joined by Le Bron at the 76ers :o.

It's long but this is a good read about Aussie NBA basketballers (especially about Simmons) and how playing Aussie Rules as juniors has helped their hoops game in the big league in the States:

The Boomers have beaten the USA for the first time in history 98-94 :thumbsup.
https://twitter.com/NBL

A first ever medal there for the taking with the USA knocked out and the Boomers cough up good leads in the final couple of games to end up empty handed. Bogut you can't blame the authorities who run Basketball worldwide for the team choking in the SF and 3rd place playoff. It's a missed opportunity.

Kobe Bryant tragically died in a helicopter crash this morning.
Bryant, 41, was one of five who were killed when the helicopter went down in Calabasas.
His daughter Gianna was also among those who died.

Just horrible news.

Ben Simmons is quickly on the way to being the most hated man in the NBA.
-
Patty Mills at half time of his Brooklyn debut
5 of 5 from 3 point land for 15 points
Great work by one of the good guys
As for Simmons, the dudes a flog
-
He's a Kent alright.
And I don't mean idiot.
-
Stephen A. Smith just gave Ben Simmons one of the biggest slap downs ever lol.
-
He is a shocker. Kyrgios must be thinking to himself how the hell does this guy escape scrutiny. Gives the country the finger, gives his teammates the finger.
What a guy.
-
For those who follow the NBA how good has this playoff series been?
Some massive upsets. Today was brilliant.
I am rapt Jimmy Buckets is riding Miami all the way, but i also loved this from Giannis. If Dimma approached interviews like this the media would be all over him. Loved it.
-
I thought Giannis was very wrong after the game
Of course they failed
Shaq was 100% correct

He played crap. Injury doesnt make you miss easy shots as he did.

Hitting 10 of 23 from the stripe is a failure no matter which way it’s looked at
I did enjoy the fact he went after the media as well
What this episode proves is just how soft the world has become .. Shaq manned up and said it as it is , almost all the others (inc Charles Barkley) say they agree with him
On what planet is a number one seed being bounced in the first round not a failure???
If a team finishes on top of the AFL ladder and gets bounced in straight sets, it’s a failure and wasted opportunity

yep, I was discussing this with a mate yesterday who agreed with Giannis. I then said if hawks failed in those Gf would you still agree with them. No bloody way you would. All that effort and come away with nothing is a failure. They were top seeds, and were blown away by Buckets Dusty like performance especially the last 2 games.
