i disagree there copious, the nbl is a lot better, 2 years ago, the number 1 college team at the time came to tour australia, i think it was arizona, well they played the kings reserves plus matt nielsen and kavossy franklin, and nielsen dropped 60 points on them one game, and then franklin dropped 40 the next, and this was the kings reserves, the guys who get 0 court time/train-on squad, heres the box of kavossy's big game, cant find the one for nielsen, but you get the idea
http://arizonaathletics.ocsn.com/sports/m-baskbl/stats/052402aab.html

at the beginning of the season, the kings played the university of iowa and only lost by 1, heres the box http://www.sydneykings.com.au/tlml/iowaboxsco
but the team that played only had 5 NBL players, with sheriden the only one who gets regular minutes

anyway, had nielsen's big game been in america, it wouldve been big news all over the country

if the NBL was filled with 20 year olds like it is in the college system, they would be far superior, but our NBL has players who've been it the NBA, been to europe and know they game very well

and go watch the nbl this wednesday or saturday night, 2 games for the kings this week :)

nah i dont think arizona was number 1. i mean, the game was played in may...whcih was after the NCAA final and before NBA draft...
and maryland won that year?!(dont quote me on that)
neways...the best players wouldve went to NBA...and looking at the lineup, the only recognisable nba player is luke walton...and he was drafted in 2003...

and yeah, i dont believe NBL is better than college. even ABA is better than NBL :D

lol. i went to see the kings play the breakers a few weeks back, it was the most boring game ive seen in a while. i atleast wanted to see a fast break or something, but it was good to see matty and ebi drop about 40 points each.

is anybody else watching allstarweekend?!?

rookie game was boring
skills challenge was ok
3 point shootout...well...peja lost...:(
dunk comp was a fucking joke~! chris anderson shouldve been in the final~!

jrich and fred jones missed their last dunks as well...what a pathetic end to it

but jrich did an off-the-glass alleyoop between-the-legs dunk...

the rookie vs sophomore game wasnt that bad, as usual defense was non existant. heaps of nice dunks though. ronal murray was schooling a few of the rookies.
