That was Marty Clarke and Diamon Simpson in the 5aa studio , just then.
Clarke - " Ballinger will be out there. "
Didn't sound like big minutes for Ballinger.
" See how Crosswell is on Thursday , but after 2 weeks he'd be struggling.
Yeah , Ng's playen , he played last gane. "
(Must've had a little rest, today.)
" Diamon Simpson will take care of Jerai Grant. "
Also mentioned was 22 year old Basketballer from the AIS playen US College .. named Ben Dowdell
has been picked up by the Crows , as he hasn't played any footy for 4 years.
Seems he popped into 36ers training , to see Marty , on his way to see the Crows.


Great News then we have rebounding power and beat Kings and start winning mode again.

Ballinger looked pretty good out there.
(Although Crosswell didn't train , of course. Neither did Ng. )


Yet another thread about Luke...
-----------------------------------
LUKE Schenscher's signature on the bottom of a 36ers' contract is a priority for Adelaide's NBL coach Phil Smyth on his U.S. trip.
Smyth and assistant coach Steve Breheny left today on an 11-day mission to shore up their coaching skills, check out potential imports and lure Schenscher, 26 and 216cm, into a Sixers singlet.
Since a brief NBA stint with the Chicago Bulls this time last year, Schenscher has been back in the Development League with Fort Worth where he is averaging 9.6 points and 6.9 rebounds.
Calling the D-League a "development" league is something of a misnomer, most players trying to push their own game to be spotted and promoted to the NBA.
Adelaide is hoping the Southern Tigers junior who helped Georgia Tech into an NCAA final is ready for some genuine development in their NBL program.
While Europe appears a better financial option, playing as an import on the Continent requires big and consistent numbers, the axe always poised.
Smyth, who promoted Schenscher into his Boomers team in 2001, believes a stint with the 36ers, in his home environment and with home support, would fast-track the big man's dream of cracking the NBA. Andrew Gaze, Mark Bradtke, Chris Anstey and Shane Heal have been at the forefront of Aussies who broke into the NBA via the NBL.
Schenscher already has a decided advantage over that crew by being more than seven feet tall and having a U.S. profile from his college and pro appearances.
"We'll spend some time with Luke and watch three of his games," Smyth said.
"We'll also watch him practice."
The 36ers pair will also attend several LA Lakers and LA Clippers NBA games and those clubs' practice sessions.
"We're going to watch how they prepare for a game night and how they practice after a match," Smyth said.
"We'll be seeing their fitness and medical people as well."
