The original poster was speculating on fixtures. Now that Fox will air WNBL in addition to NBL you would think they would not clash in their scheduling. The way the OP predicted the fixtures fails to leave a window for their WNBL coverage.

Why would WNBL games need to be listed on an NBL schedule?

"Is this thread just some guy saying what he thinks the draw should be?? I don't get it."

I think so... lol. Yet he forgets WNBL is on Fox now as well so didn't factor in any of that league's games... whoops!

Its paying $28 if anyone wants in. I got in @ $31 when I read this.

I'm not expecting any double headers until the Tassie NBL franchise gets up and running

With that whole WNBL TV deal in motion, I reckon we might get a draw earlier this year.

Huh?

The half hour breaks between double-headers are more out of hope than anything else that we might get to see some studio type more analysis from Fox.

Why on earth would Fox bother with a studio show? Not to mention that most games finish in well under two hours, and the vast majority of people will have little interest in sitting through a 45-minute studio show before the second game starts.

Sydney and Perth needs to be early in the season for mine, as does the QLD derby

Why?

Have you bothered to look into venue availability? Why are NZ playing on their non-preferred night? What exactly is the point of this thread?

Where are your WNBL-NBL double headers? arenenbee now with both on Fox there will be a lot of double and triple headers. Maybe even a quadruple header?

Since people are questioning Ballingers value to the team based on the performance of the Sixers since he has been here, I decided to have a look at Jacob Holmes team performance since he has became a significant player in the NBL (at least 20 minutes per game).

The reason for this analysis is because I think every player in the team needs to be looked at to see if they will be needed next season.

We must also take into account Holmes is rated a 7 on the player points system (well he was last season, im not sure if he went down for the current season) and is a starter so he must be on some decent money.

Anyway here are the facts:

In the last 8 seasons he has a total of 106 wins and 137 losses = 43% winning record.

His statisitics during these seasons are

10 PPG at 38.5% FG, 34.5% 3PP, 80% FTP
7.7 RPG
2.3 APG
0.6 SPG
0.3 BPG
1.5 TPG

The run down of his minutes and win loss record is below.

2010/11 - 9w-19l - 24 MPG (40min game - 28 mins adjusted)
2009/10 - 10w-18l - 22 MPG (40min game - 25 mins adjusted)
2008/9 - 15w-15l - 30 MPG
2007/8 - 14w-16l - 36 MPG
2006/7 - 5w-25l - 33 MPG
2005/6 - 15w-18l - 33.6 MPG
2004/5 - 19w-13l - 32 MPG
2003/4 - 19w-13l - 34.5 MPG

I know he is South Australian and a great guy but it is seriously time the coaches looked at whether or not he is needed here.

I would only keep him here if his player points where reduced, his salary reduced and he only plays 0-10 minutes per game.

Should he be here next season you think?
