Commish Announces 2nd asian team tba later this mo

I was also surprised to read this thread where people were talking about another Asian NBL team. I listened to Talking Hoops last night and only heard Rick Burton talking about a 4th country joining the NBL, not specifically Asian. In fact, after that interview, Paul Bell, Scott Ninnis & Brett Maher were having a debate over which country he may have been referring to because he didn't give any specifics. Burton made it quite clear that he would not reveal which country it is.

Plus don't forget on top of all of this is the talk re the Gold Coast... although they wont be in for 06/07 - nor will the 2nd Asian team unless they can extract a digit fairly quickly... but either way, 07/08 could be a 14 team league if the 2nd Asian team plus Gold Coast enter. That's more the way that the NBL should be.

Just on this announcement/rumour there has been hardly anything spoken about the Singapore team, who have they signed, what is their name, colours, stadium, etc etc?

1 team, 2 teams does it really matter how many. The league has already comitted to 1 team so why not have 2.

At least it will spark even more interest having their own Derby.

I think it is a great move considering that they had already approved the Singapore team.

Be interesting to see how the schedule comes out now?!

Asia road double's for all teams, wednesday/saturday games or friday sunday?

Could be a chance to get more games on Fox as hopefully (I was going to say obviously but you never know with the NBL) they have someone lined up for coverage over there and the NBL better be getting some good $$ from it.
