    Damn, in 15-20 years from now watch out for the next wave of point guards from China in the NBA and WNBA.

    More likely they'll be the over-lords and we'll all be working for them.

    ...no, but I did see the Blazers play the Suns something like 3 of the first 9 games of the regular season though (two of them in a back-to-back, both at Phoenix)!

    First time an Australian team has ever beaten an NBA team, first time an NBA team has lost to a non NBA team since 2015.

    Suns played their regular rotation for the first three quarters, 36ers lead the whole way.

    36ers shot lights out, I was cackling like a madman for the last quarter, not quite believing what I was seeing.

    I’m concerned the 36ers won’t be able to keep their import players (three per NBL team limit) for the whole season now.

    This season’s 36ers team is very different to last season’s team. Only six out of 15 players are returning, the rest are new. Crucially all three of the 36ers imports are new to the team. Given NBL teams are limited to three imports (non Aussie or Kiwi players) their success is greatly influenced by getting their imports right. It looks like Adelaide has chosen wisely. Most analysts are predicting the 36ers to be one of the top teams this season.

    Do the players from Tasmania just spin in circles all out of control making crazy noises? Please say YES!
