Boti losing his mind lately.

WHAT a start! That was just what the doctor ordered – spectacular game, great crowd, quality TV coverage and unprecedented social media fan interaction.

Dr Kestelman, his chief surgeon Dr Loeliger and their team of nurses and interns have not only revived their NBL patient but steadily taken him off life support, affected a complete rehabilitation and last night watched with a proud tear in the eye as it blazed new heights on so many levels.

I know he works for them etc but he's starting to make himself look bad.

Agreed MACDUB the music is the same as it's been for years and is over the top. Can the NBL at least trial a game with little or no music and see how it goes? The irony is it is an Americanisation of the NBL that the Americans do even less than us.

I think Hammer is a really good commentator. Gives some good insight, is knowledgeable of the players and i think he explains things with relative straightforwardness for non-basketball fans to understand what's going on.

Not having the score available on the screen was frustrating - and not a good look having something like happen from the first tip off in the very first game of the year.

Glad to see they appear to have done away with the in-game bench interviews which were absolute cringworthy.

In game music MUST be reduced. Sounds silly but I find it hard to concentrate on the basketball with the music blasting..like it's hard to focus on the game?

Would still like "cuts" and "edits" for introductions, 'going to ads' etc. to show actual highlights..

It's a massive league wide problem..all you see sometimes is cuts of fouling, guys complaining, some guy taking a charge, guys arguing (those ones aimed to show 'intensity' and heart), passes etc.. Can never understand it. They should show 3 pointers, dunks, nice layups.
