I will give you a hand Joe. The answer is a bit of yes and no. In general basketball is on the rise. NBL is slowly improving, WNBL is very strong. Many of our players ply their trade worldwide and our senior and junior national teams perform very well on the international stage. But if you look at things regionally there is one small pocket that is holding us back. They used to be the stronghold of our national leagues, hell they even self proclaimed themselves Title Town. But in the last few years have become the laughing stock of our great sport, dragging down the standards and there appears to be no light at the end of the tunnel for them. The great thing is that the rest of us love what is happening. Hope I helped.

I'd say no. The ratings on ONE HD are crap and I'd be surprised, even if ONE does continue to exist, it won't cover the NBL. Television is all about ratings.

"Do your own homework"

Who really cares that I came on here looking for at least one answer to a list of many that aren't even based around work in general, just curiosity. At least i'm doing something productive. Tell me, how long have you been trolling this webpage for?
