Welcome to Week 14, where the corn fields of Indiana are suddenly a destination. If New Orleans ever joins them, I think we can officially say that end times are upon us. These weekly threads are our safe space to give voice to our hopes, dreams and frustrations. On the plus side, it leaves us...

Well, it's unlucky Week 13, which probably means we're all back at work now and forced to watch games surreptitiously on phones or spare monitors for, ahem, research purposes. Hey, how else are these threads going to get done? Of course the NBA never sleeps, no holiday seasons off for these...

Clippers getting pantsed again. This time by the 1-8 Grizz lol 😂

Favourites the USA dispatched the plucky Belgians who shot 40% from deep. The tiny nation of Puerto Rico beat the former part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia in Bosnia-Herzegovina. And in the battle of East Asia, powerhouse China whalloped the Korean team 107-44. Lauren Jackson has made her...

ayyy yoooooo First time doing a portfolio on big footy and there's only so much you can do with AFL team designs because they have to stay similar to tradition, but with the NBA, teams can do aaaanything. I've decided to design the "City Edition" uniforms for next season. I'm going to be...

Seven-times WNBA All-Star player Brittney Griner was arrested some time in February after officials at Moscow airport found what they said was cannabis vape cartridges in her luggage. She's sharing a cell with two others and at 2m tall (6'9") the beds are too short for her. :( The Russian...

No more.

A day after TJ Warren unleashed on the hapless 76ers, we prepare ourselves for another high pressure day of seeding games. Brooklyn defeated the Wizards in Orlando with Caris LeVert 34 and 7. Former Laker Thomas Bryant led the Wiz with a bruising 30 and 14. The Spurs and Grizz are playing some...

The NBL has joined forces with First Ever for the up coming season. All current 9 teams, the new Tasmanian Expansion team and 2 other Expansion teams will be shown with their Jerseys for the upcoming season. This season is a great leap forward for the league drawing NBA level talent across the...

Miami and Spurs headline a quiet day in the NBA. Denver and Indiana Pacers the other game. Here is a highlight.

Orlando hold a slender lead over the home town Pelicans in the first. All Magic starters have scored.

Another fantastic week of basketball on and off the court has been completed. Whoever had Fizdale in the sacked coach sweep, congratulations. Becky Hammon rumoured to contain interest in the head coach position. In other news, Benjamin Simmons hit another 3. He is shooting a whopping 50%...

Announced a while ago, but not posted about yet afaik. Playing 2 games before the games vs USA at Marvel Stadium. Who knows if Canada will send over any of their NBA players, but still a good chance to watch the Boomers ahead of the World Cup for Boomers supporters. Should at least be a much...

Simple stuff - going to take the modern day NBA and redesign, rebrand and/or relocate teams. Enjoy.

LeBron James says his move to Los Angeles Lakers was for basketball reasons - and nothing to do with his Hollywood career.:cool::cool: The four-time NBA Most Valuable Player joined the Lakers in July on a four-year deal worth $154m (£116m).:cool::cool: James, 33, is involved in various...

There has been a lot of discussion on this forum this season about the value of stats. Which stats can be trusted? Which stats best capture the value of a player? And so on and so forth. One of the biggest conundrums centres around the +/- metric. On one hand this is a stat which attempts to...

It's Week 24. Can you name the player wearing no. 24 on the Basketball Card above? Answer will be given at the end of this post. We're nearing the end of the Regular Season, which means it's time to hand out Awards to those players who have excelled in 2015/16. But we won't be looking at the...

It's Week 21. Can you name #21 in the Basketball Card above? Only 1 month left to go in the Regular Season. Unfortunately, this week's hastily put-together OP is a short one with minimal content and zero analysis involved. I do however have the transcript from a special interview I was able...
