True, then they lose...
I was answering the comment about them playing under different rules..the fairest way would be to play international rules, anyone on the team that has played world champs or olympics would be able to adjust, and the USA would possibly learn them a bit better and hopefully that would reduce another excuse they use when they lose..

Obviously the any NBA team is going to beat any NBL team but I reckon a game between an NBA club and one of the best NBL clubs (this year it would be melbourne or brisbane)wouldn't be a complete blowout. I'm not certain tho.

But the Boomers are an Nbl side......remember..

Jimmy I was meaning free to air TV here...for the same reason that you are saying, to get more of the general public interested..

It's funny how the Socceroos were going to get a ticker tape parade for losing, yet the girls get nothing for winning Australia's first basketball gold medal...

The NBA were worried that one of their teams might lose, so they canned it..

I beleive there were talks of an NBA match being played here to start the season off,like this year in Japan??

Has been posted previously on here, personally I would make the road trip if it happened, would be awesome!

Let's be real here. Yes it is Perth and they always find a way to be relevant but gotta look at facts.

Damo retires and you replace him with White...okay fair enough you won't replace someone as good as Damo with the talent pool we have but that doesn't take away from the fact that is an obvious downgrade.

No Terrico so you get Blanchfield... eehhh not a tremendous downgrade but still a downgrade. White caught fire when it counted, Blanchfield is extremely hot and cold. They can't afford for him to be cold for consecutive games.

Lose Kay and replace him with an "Maybe he will, maybe he won't" guy in Mooney. Unknown and unproven commodity.

Majok injured and he's replaced with a forward... they don't have a centre unless they get Pledger or pull a Christmas miracle and nab a marquee Aussie...
