Sixers Can Thank the NBL Schedule

Think about the Bullets last season winning the championship. They won it on performance in spite of scheduling. With around 19 consecutive wins, many of those were after travelling. A good side does not let the schedule get them down.

Tryng to put together schedules in the NBL would be a logistical nightmare. I take my hat off to the organisers in managing this. There are so many things to take into consideration, its just improssible to please everyone everytime. In the end, the best team wins anyway. If you are a good side, you will cope with this and it will not stop you from winning a championship.

I'm totally with Isaac.
There's no way I'll defend the NBL's schedule, it sucks straight up. Then there's the reality of the inevitable last minute delays, that are dumped every franchise.
As a minor example of what we're saying, the trip to Singapore went via Melbourne, & incurred a 2½ hour terminal sit before re-boarding for Singapore. On their return, they were supposedly due in Adelaide at 21:00 last night, but lobbed in at 22:30.
It's no cake-walk, there's every right to complain.
Other complications like Hotels not being able to provide meals at the odd hours, weather, time zones, the list is endless.
In the meantime, bite your tongue, or your ar$e, until you know what's going on.
