Whens the Olympics?

I've heard that channel 7 will have their app showing live sport for everything so you can choose/watch whatever you like even if it's not on their TV channels

Can you name all of the 36ers imports? Here are AdelaideNow's clues:

1: He was the original ``Chairman of the Boards' and played locally with Forestville.
2: He preferred to be called Sir Reginald.
3: Played a lot of great additional years at places such as Geelong and Hobart.
4: The Man Mountain, he also played in Perth but was hurt when he came back briefly as a naturalised player.
5: Part of the ``3Ds' with Darryl Pearce and #4.
6: The 36ers' first championship captain.
7: The life of Brian was short-lived when Pud hit town.
8: Had his singlet retired. Come on. This one is too easy.
9: Liked to say he'd been an LA Laker until Kareem came to Oz. Limped through his one year.
10: Also played locally with Forestville, was feted by coach Don Shipway who said any NBL club would love him. He never played in Australia again.
11: Our first US point guard, he was noted for his high socks and Woollacott Medals.
12: Second import to be cut during the season.
13: Had a great game against defector Mark Bradtke but was best known for sharing his name with an NBA superstar.
14: Arguably the most talented 36er ever, he always rose to a challenge. Dang, that made it too easy.
15: Won a title with the Cannons, this noted shot-blocker had several abortive stints with Adelaide.
16: Ho ho, 36ers guards were seeing red when this guy was brought in.
17: Just throw the ball somewhere near the hoop and he'd grab it and slam it down.
18: Another point guard but who suspected he'd play NBA for years after falling foul here?
19: He was hardly any Bad, Bad Leroy, which should explain why he also didn't survive the season.
20: Playmaking part of the finest import duo the 36ers ever suited.
21: #20's best friend, he proved he was a lot more than just that with two championships.
22: Won a championship on debut but faltered in subsequent stints.
23: Cairns' error was Adelaide's mid-season championship missing link.
24: Was great at Wollongong but only showed glimpses here.
25: Cut by Victoria, he was grabbed by Adelaide and never looked back.
26: Once described as ``mediocre' by a coach, sadly he didn't do much to dispel that here.
27: In his fourth year, he will have his third Sixer coach.
28: Might have been a better cricketer.
29: Dr No J.
30: Was quickly cut, bringing back Dr No J.
31: Brought in at the last minute, he never truly had time to settle in.
32: Might have been the next Ricky Grace, became the next Ricky Lake instead.
33: Should have opened the batting with #28, he too had lost his first step.
