NBL Ladder Predictions

If Wade Helliwell does a hard screen on Luke Nevill
and Nevill loses his cool , Martin Clarke will sit Hellwell down and we're a bit short.

Hey Snake 5, any word on how Crosswhite is travelling? What is it that is keeping him out of the pre-season games?

Edit: switch the Kings with the Breakers. Bogut will give the Kings a nice boost and the Breakers backcourt really has been decimated this season.

Might as well put my predictions in too...

Wildcats
Blaze
Tigers
Breakers

Kings
Sixers
Hawks
Taipans
Crocs

I assume the Cats won, but are the Shanghai Sharks really that good at the moment? Would hope the Sixers have a little bit more to throw at the Cats than the Sharks do!

I would like to think Adelaide will press for a finals berth, but don't think we can make it.

Perth
NZ
Gold Coast
Sydney
----
Melbourne
Adelaide
Wollongong
Townsville
Cairns

But you really could throw a blanket over positions 3 to 8 in my view.

My predictions usually end up somewhere between bad and shouldn't have bothered so I'm not making one. BUT, I do believe the 36ers will make the finals. Won't say we'll win our 5th championship (though I hope we do) but I'd put money on us having a big improvement.

Perth have no reason not to be minor premiers. The competition is so close that the gap from 2nd to bottom gets down to execution of the plays, injuries and luck.

3 point shooting % will be one thing that defines a good or bad team. The other key factor is defence. Teams with sloppy defence will be taking an early shower.

Observer is pretty close:
Perth-strong team and probably won't drop a game at home
New Zealand-should get most home games, not so good on the road
Gold Coast - The smokey.
Melbourne-Mills will see them improve on last year.
Adelaide-Injury free, should be up there. Need to finalise the last spot and get Ballinger fit, or a good fill in.
Townsville-stronger with the Diddy. Why isn't Schench dominating?
Sydney-Madge to be a star
Wollongong-Gordie is a magician, but some are a wakeup to his tricks
Cairns-decimated, $20 says wooden spoon.

THE Adelaide 36ers have signed 340-game NBL veteran Brad Davidson and rookie Matt Sutton for their 2007-08 Philips Championship campaign.

The Sixers also are unlikely to retain imports Willie Farley and Nick Horvath or late signing Marcus Timmons in a team which management is busy renovating after a club-worst 11th placing.

Good pickup for the Sixers.

I was wrong...Rumors were right!

Years ago

Perth-strong team with inclusion of Neville
Melbourne-Mills in team will do well.
New Zealand-will be around again but not strong to win flag
Gold Coast-If imports preform they be up higher
Adelaide-will be there when balls and import in team
Sydney-wont finish bottom this year.
Townsville-strong 5 weak bench
Woolongong-depends on 2nd import
Cairns-not as strong as last year,wooden spoon.

Thats my view
