6'2/3

How tall is KP?

Yes as indicated above, alot of the boys I had in my 14s WA Metro Team are very spread out across the three touring teams - 2 with me at Rockingham; 4 at Willo and 3 at Perry Lakes. Looking forward to getting across to Vic and seeing how we all match up club wise

6 in Bulleen the squad, 1 of them is a reserve.

What a joke basketball Victoria is. If you are down at the classic and going to Nationals you can see Victoria's state side play in the GF today. The state coach is also the Bulleen coach and has 7 of squad in her rep team. You would hate to be trying to make a state team in Victoria, not rigged much.

Looking forward to seeing those u16 grand finals on livestream.

Wa Players who played scc are spread across many teams.

You would imagine one of the WA teams might challenge in the boys given they made the SCC shield game in 14s. Cairns will also go very close in the boys too

Who can challenge vic teams at nationals, thought sa teams would come closest.
Sydney was nsw best, Forestville sa best. Only one that could possibly challenge would be Gold Coast with there size.

Kid from hawthorn getting it done for hawthorn boys..

appears Vic have increased the gap since January in 14s

that 2000/01 group for SA is also strong

Not unusual for Vics to dominate the top half of 14s but still see some challenges at Nationals. They are more consistent participants at Classic and most comfortable with the format, officiating, etc. Historically, their use of zone D would have been a factor, though, and that's no longer the case.

#643 how many all-interstate finals would have been contested across all age groups in Classic history? I can't imagine it's many. Great result for SA there.

Pretty bad considering you have 4 future Australian reps in the Dandenong side.

Thought Dandenong would smash Sturt but Brett got them the win.

cant recall an all SA u18g final... ever

Looks like vics will dominate in u14 club champs.

7 of the top 8 in girls are vics. Forestville the other.
The top 8 teams on boys are all vic teams.

18 boys not a great comp

Comprehensive

Sacramento Kings are going to stay. But here's the catch it's only for next season, After that there are no gurantees. I hope the Kings stay but if you can't getter bigger venue then you can't get a bigger venue. I saw the documentary Sonicsgate and I don't blame it all on Howard Schultz the orignal sonics owner, however I tend to think Clay Bennett did everything he could to get them out of seattle and into the city of oklahoma. The fact this man has been put on as the head of relocation commitee is hardly someone I would call as "neutral".

Anyway NBA just hope you remember that more teams relocate the less chance you have in keeping fans, tradtions, and rivalrys. Just ask the NBL.

Moving a team to ANahaim also I think it's a bit incredlous having 3 teams in los angeles. If there going to relocate they could at least go to a city that does not have an NBA team. KEntuckey? Las Vegas? St Louis? Seattle and Vancouver's names have been thrown up but I would they would be unlikely at best.
