If all the other teams rolled out the same lineups as last year I'd maybe give the Crocs a shot of being better than expected, but there's been a surge in talent this offseason (on paper, anyway) with mediocre squads like Wollongong/Sydney/Melbourne seeming to have boosted their lineups from last season, and Perth/Cairns/NZ don't seem likely to significantly weaken - although Cairns have a chance to drop given they just lost a stud PG to the NBA.
Scouting report will read (& i watched 2 mins of the highlight reel) - sag off him & make him shoot. Can get to the rack off both hands! Then i read your comment 'aussieballer' - 19% 3 point shooter. This guy might struggle in NBL unless he works on his range!
Yeah, was just going to say... Athleticism does count for something, but a lot of the time import guards struggle in this league it's when they don't have an outside shot. Just makes it too easy to back off them and take away the drive.
