So what needs to happen to fix the Boomers?

Right on, Vart.

Barlow really annoyed me last night in the pre-game warm-ups - spent most of his time doing dunks and then missing his outside shots.

Wrong priority, I reckon, when it comes to what we'll need from him at the Olympics.

Fair point, XY - I didn't check the hard facts before contributing.

Did we have any who were drafted but didn't end up playing? There were a few who we felt were knocking on the door, eg McKinnon.

Hoopie, when did we have 5 players in the NBA at any one time?

I assume we must be talking in the period from 96-99, but all I can find are:

Longley 1991/2 - 1999/2000;
Gaze 1993-94, 1998-99;
Heal 1996-97, 2003-04;
Bradtke 1996-97;
Anstey 1997/8 - 1999/2000.

That is at best 3 at any one time (Longley, Heal and Bradtke) something we reproduced last year with Bogut, Anderson and Mills all playing at once.

Not sure that can be considered a drop off, particularly given that on any view the Bogut, Anderson and Mills combination had more influential roles on their teams than Longley, Heal and Bradtke.

We do have some fair talent coming through at the younger levels at the 2/3 spot...let's hope they materialise into the players we all hope they will become.

I heard a song on the radio with lyrics that went something like this: " you've got a reason to live" and something about "dont wanna be ***** (not sure of what the next word is), dont wanna be***? Can someone PLEASE give me the title of this song?
