Finn Delany to Serbia

re: Agent question - Jonathan Givony's given the Breakers more studs than duds over the years, I don't think he's the issue here. Seems like some odd ownership transition stuff going on.

We need Wesley back, moreso for his veteran moxie and leadership than anything else. Needs to captain the team in a Vukona-like fashion. But then we need to give Delany minutes as the stretch 3-4, and if you play both Wesley/Delany together to spread the floor, then we're short against the current NBL front courts (heck, Vukona/Boucher and their elite defence wouldn't have their effectiveness in the modern NBL).

The lack of a gun import PG cost the Breakers, who've been built around a star distributor who can moderate the Webster iso's and Abercrombie double-screen offence. Perhaps it was the lack of sets? Neither could get going with Shea looking more like how Henare played for the Breakers (which I'm very curious about, given they did for Henare coaching them at the TBs). But you can't have Ili and Weeks on the bench together either.

Maybe a coaching change to Aaron Fearne (with Ross McMains assistant) might be the best move?

That’s even worse, each of the imports has a different agent! Wow, people really have no idea and really try to spread lies.

I read it as all three imports from the one agent.

Hold on, so you’re suggesting that all 12 rostered players are with one agent?
Do your homework before speaking. Surely. You sound silly.

6 different agents involved in that team, so be careful with you comments.

Agree with MACDUB - the time to play this guy 20 mins+ a game was 2017-18 already.

Breakers have to sign this guy up long term.

Should have been getting a lot more minutes than Abercrombie during the season; was more efficient and performed better than Abercrombie despite more than 10 minutes less per game. Shot fantastic %'s from the field and from 3.

On my phone, so hard to relay all the details but the Taipans won their trial game. Trigger 26, Steindl 20 (debut?), Hill high teens. Wilson barely played. Kerry Williams suited and other dev players also matched signings rumoured on Hoops.

Anyone at the game? Predictions on how Steindl will go in the NBL?
