Beston/Greenway pod: Is Goulding the best Aussie in the NBL?

I want a full season of Xavier Cooks and make a judgment on just how good he is, I've liked aspects of his game but is he an out and out star or just playing a role?

Dude, I have 0 clue what you are talking about.
I am neither Beston or Greenway, I was just trying to have a basketball/NBL conversation surrounding some stuff I heard on their pod.

And as for Hoopla, its fine. It aint the best NBL podcast, in my opinion, that would be the NBLpocketpodcast. Hoopla is a great spot for interviews as the dude obviously has great connections, but thats about it.

'whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaats up hooooooooooops tragicssss and we have some great stuff for your hoops loving ear holes...'

..... ok so just Creek then? maybe Sobey but not really?

And apparently no one likes the podcast... but Beston was a nice kid?

Think I am all caught up.

Going on current overall ability, success and flaws in their game.

1. Kay - good scorer, good defender, hard worker, good passer, championship winner, added the 3pt to his game, makes his teammates better. No flaws?
2. Creek - good scorer, good defender, good passer, hard worker, made the cut to the NBA briefly, makes his teammates better. Dumped from Boomers due to attitude? No consistent outside shot. Can go missing at times?

Then you have Bogut/DJ and Goulding/McCarron/Sobey after that. These guys have more flaws than the top 2 above I feel. All can go missing, some don't work as hard especially when things aren't going their way.

Karl Beston was a rippin bloke when he was younger. A poor man's hooper, but I am not sure why these guys get any airtime. His opinions are outrageous bordering delusional at times.

Sobey is better, Goulding was once better but not anymore

Sobey Can Shoot Sobey can get in the Lane Sobey can defend and sobey is a lot more athletic, if I was picking a side right now sobey is picked well ahead of Goulding as is creek, Kay, Daniel Johnson

Sorry wrong thread

Liz will be at the illegal black lives matter rally tomorrow you can count on it hahahaha so unlikely

Come on.

Creek - 20.2p, 7.3r, 3.1a, 1.1s @ 48% fg (35% 3p)

Goulding - 17.0p, 2.1r, 2.3a, 0.9s @ 41% fg (39% 3p)

That's a big gulf, Goulding's not even the best Aussie in Melbourne.

I think you answered your own question by throwing up Creek as the alternative.

From a purely scoring perspective in the season just gone.
Creek 20ppg
D Johnson 18
Goulding 17
Sobey 16
Kay 15
Blanchfield 13

Creek and Kay are the obvious ones (Kays now gone). Given the amount of other offensive options United have had on their team and who he has had to battle to get shots up you could mount a case that Goulding stacks up as well as any other Aussie.

I thought Creek was the best Aussie in the NBL last season but surely anon you realise radio shows/podcasts want to put out a controversial headline to get people talking about their show?

So its clear that San Antonio is stacked in guard position and that Patty will be better off maximising his opportunities at another club. That being said which teams would have the cap space to take Patty and have a starting PG position up for grab?
