Mystro, I understand there is a big difference between the NBL(NZ) and the NBL(Aus), but he was the equal-leading scorer in round 1. He scored more points than Ballinger, Behrendorff and Casey Frank who are all well-established NBL players. He also had 8 boards.
'I think Lemanis used our developement players well all season and gave them all a good chance to get out there and prove their worth to the club'
-He hardly played Webster, even though he had played for the NZ Tall Blacks against the Aussies and scored 9 points. He used Abercrombie way too sparingly. IMO Abercrombie did a better job than Henare. He didn't go to his bench enough--That was highlighted by the fact that mid-way through the season guys like Bruton, Penney etc. suffered injuries because they were being overused.

Webster is good but not NBL good (yet). Big diff in dropping 33 in NZ league and dropping 33 in Aus NBL.
He will be one to watch out for in the near future as is Tom Abercrombie (Hammercrombie), tha boys got hops. I think Lemanis used our developement players well all season and gave them all a good chance to get out there and prove their worth to the club

Corey Webster went off and showed everyone why he should have got game-time for the NZ Breakers. He hit 33 points( 10/20 FG, 4/8 3-point, 9/12 FT)
Thats amazing for a player who is 19 years old. I know its only 1 game, but I wouldn't be suprised if teams from the NewBL come looking for him. Andrej Lemanis should have played him more, especially when Phill Jones and Penney were struggling to score later in the season.
