"Got one more than Shaq!"
Just wanted to comment on the standard of the NBL currently.....I've watched 3 games over the past week......and I have to say I think the quality of play has improved markedly this season.
It's only early days yet (and it may be because I get to watch it more regularly on free to air TV)....but the league seems to have improved since the re-structure 3-4 years ago.
The Aussie players are not as "3-point happy".....and the imports are adding some flair and athleticism.
It's still not as good as it was back in the early to mid 90's......we seem to be importing a lot of guards. The league needs imports like Dwayne McClain, Leon Trimingham, Lanard Copeland, Dave Simmons, Dave Culbert, James Crawford, Marcus Timmons, Rob Rose, Leroy Loggins....bigger, dominant, more athletic imports. Those guys (and there are a heap more names you could add to the list)....changed the game here and improved the standard of the local players.
