Perth Wildcats sign Mathiang Muo

Total speculation on my part but that makes sense to me, as they had an absolute shitload of staff early on. Justifiable too, given the change from Challenge to Perth Arena and the associated huge push for members & sponsors.
I would assume that had settled down by the end of the season with all the changes out of the way, and they were able to return to a more normal staffing level.

The Perth Wildcats are lucky to have someone as competant as Nick Marvin running our organisation. The current situation is testament to his leadership, whilst people get on his case to make snap decisions on the roster and coaching appointments he holds his nerve and makes good decisions for the immediate and long term future of the club. Before you whinge about Nick have a look at some of the other clubs and the financial and roster predicaments they get themselves into, i think we should appreciate what we have.

just my opinion

If that's true then it's the fault of whoever is dishing out the credit, not the fault of the person on the receiving end of it.

I have had the occasional interaction with Marvin over the years and have never had an issue, so I too would be interested to know what prompted that response from him (assuming it actually occurred). It sounds like a response to something pretty retarded.

So we have
Hire 6pt,
Muo 3pt,
Knight 10pt,
Redhage 10pt (29pt)

joining

Martin 9pt*,
Wagstaff 8pt*,
Bartlett 4pt* (21pt)

Giving us 20pts for 3 players.

Bet the Cats would murder to knock off one last point.

Good to get some encouraging news after a lot of the recent uncertainty. Has me feeling hungrier for what our import choices will be.

Pretty good pickup IMO.

Muo is a great shooter and can light it up. He demonstrated in college that he has the ability to explode for 20+ in any given game.

Also, the first fresh blood into the NBL so far this off-season, unless I missed a couple signings.

Unusually old, yes.

After watching Bartlett go 0/6 from the arc in one game last year, if he can get near that 40% against NBL opposition, he'll be a better player at fewer points. Hopefully the extra years brings some maturity and composure, as well.

Just to update if people don't already know. I was reading the David Anderson thread down below. They played this morning agains TAU. They won by 4 points and Anderson had 16 points and rebounds and was 8/8 from the field. So he is ready as CSKA go through to there 3rd straight Euroleague final
