I hear Fultz maybe playing for the 76ers today. If he does, good luck to the kid! It’s unfair to call him a “bust” is he’s played 3 games

Loving the way the 76's are traveling atm beating the Spurs without Butler. Love what Brewer brings to team real energy his in your face antics to Harden a few nights ago was awesome. Embiid is a star and Simmons is an up and coming star. A lot to like about Phili.

The Warriors vs Rockets series has been incredible so far. 2-2! Every play and every shot has been significant. It's like a chess battle, very strategic matches. I'm riding every shot that the Rockets sink as I really want to see KD and the Warriors lose. I only pay attention at the tail end of the playoffs each year, but this one series has felt notably epic, maybe because the footy has been pretty miserable this year and these bball matches have been far more entertaining than any non-demon games.

Well it hasn't been a good week with the Victory and 76's eliminated. Leonard is a freak tough way to bow out but hopefully we can keep the same players together and Embid can be injury free for next year.

Are you watching the finals? Toronto has been incredible so far. Happy to support the non-warriors/kd team even with the Aussie Bogart in it. GSW=Hawthorn from 2013-15 to me. 3-1. I really hope they close out the series now. Leonard has been incredible in the field. I know KD is not in the team, but the way they've attacked with the extra pass to a 3 point line, or to a pick n roll with Siacam or Gasol. What a team. I really want them to win, but i kind of at the same time, dont want there to be 1 game left in the season. 3 more would be ace with Leonard hitting a 3 in game 7 at the buzzer lol

Nah I haven't watched any basketball since the heart breaking loss to the 6ers. but I've been keeping up with the scores and will be surprised if Toronto led by Leonard don't win even if Durant plays.

I see Durant was thrown out there in game 5 totally unprepared to play,  and tore his achilles.

Is Misson their fitness guy now?

GO PHILI! 5 AND 0 without Embid. Epic game against Trailblazers keep it up Phili.

Dallas will be a championship team in the next few seasons if they can find their third piece 

  • 2 weeks later...

Don't know what's wrong with Phili really struggling. I thought the inclusions of Horford and Richardson weren't as strong as the exclusions Butler and Reddick. It will be interesting to see if we are making up the numbers or a genuine premiership threat.

Lakers & Celtics leading their respective conferences ... that's a throwback

And haven't the Warriors fallen away?  Clippers have their next 5 at home so their record could easily improve.

There's a lot of teams in it this season including your Sixers.

Highly recommend watching the Houston v San Antanio double overtime game, it was absolutely off the hook! Big comeback, Big shots, Big Calls. Crowd going nuts, Patty Mills with a nice 3 and a getting an awesome offensive foul against Harden go his way. Brought back memories of a 90's rivalry

Can't stomach 'barracking' for Houston anymore the way Harden plays, especially the way he ended game 6 v Warriors last year with an offensive foul and giving the series away! So currently i'm following all significant games and rooting for underdogs! And of course, barracking for anyone but the Lakers! Nuggets have been impressive after a slow start. Toronto are probably my favourite to watch with Siakim, Boucher, Van Vleet all combining and playing such a good team game. Watching all Clippers and Lakers games as they seem to be the best teams playing the best ball! Dallas are also fun to watch with Luka. I admit i havent watched much Giannis and Milwaukee but i think its because their schedule has been very easy and they're due to play some big games soon.

For those without cable it seems that Viceland HD (Ch031) are covering a 'live' game of the NBA every day around lunchtime (including the Heat @ Nets on right now)

Live coverage of the NBL is quite frequent as well ... Brisbane vs Sydney 3pm today

First game of the best of 7 NBA Finals kicks off tomorrow at 10.30am (Celtics vs Mavs) 

Those wanting to listen to the game can pick up the broadcast on ESPN Radio.  Otherwise, the games are on Foxtel/Kayo

As a Timberwolves fan who hates Celtic I'm hoping no one wins this. 

But seriously I'll cheer on my multi and hate both teams. 😁🤣

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
