Ivy League champs Yale touring Australia

Agree with you anon^ about one thing, that is the notion that US College Coaches will not care that much that a player from here was a volume shooter with a free license to do what he/she wants on court.

Once our kids go over, they are soon given a reality check and if they don't quickly understand what the coaches are after and how they fit into the team, they will have to get used to sitting down for a while until they come to grips with these changes.

Knowing some who are over there right now, if you get into the right system you will love it, but more importantly if you think you are 'top dog' but you are faking it you will be found out immediately...

People also need to consider that prior to last night's game, Yale has only trained together for 6 days and stepped off a plane around just 24 hours earlier. Comparatively, Ringwood are coming off a full season together.

I was at the game, and Ringwood looked sharp while Yale looked like they were still finding their feet as a team given their early stage of preparations.

Alan McAughtry is coaching the Youth All Stars - that's all I know.

Just got a rule clarification

Article 17.2.3 - bullet point 3

During the last two (2) minutes of the fourth (4th) period and during the last two
(2) minutes of each extra period, following a time-out granted to the team that
has been entitled to the possession of the ball from its backcourt.

It seems that the team entitled to the ball is supposed to pass the ball in from the centre of the court opposite the score bench. Is this fully implemented - because last night there was 4 of these such occasions and once the ball was taken from the centre line, but on the same side as the score table. Were the refs stupid or just forgot the rules or maybe the NBL and Ian Stacker have come up with a new "interpretation" to cover this?
