Ezi created a defensive Storm

ONE of the great joys of having Seattle-based BOB CRAVEN as our US correspondent was the fact he often sent stories from the Seattle Times, Aussies such as Lauren Jackson through to Sami Whitcomb playing WNBA for the Storm. Here's one by Percy Allen on Ezi Magbegor from last month.
WNBA: Lady Liberty has a title at last
.jpg)
THREE factors stood out today as New York clinched the WNBA championship over Minnesota in overtime of Game 5 - the league was desperate to accommodate a Liberty title, my theory of tech fouling coaches who allow flopping was vindicated, and going to a "best-of-7" probably isn't in women's basketball's best interests.
R.I.P. Bob's Corner but all the best 'Craves'

REGULAR visitors to my website here would have noticed the popular work of our erstwhile US correspondent BOB CRAVEN has been missing for a while now. Truth is Bob has experienced a significant change in his personal life and has been forced to hang up the keyboard, much to my and I am sure the dismay of the many who read him here.
If you love basketball, tune in to WNBA Game 5

THERE may have been a better WNBA Championship Series than the one Minnesota Lynx and New York Liberty are currently providing, but it would take some time to remember which, this epic best-of-five series tied at 2-2 and with an Australian sure to finish it as a champion.
Brad&Boti: Top Six or Pick up Sticks?

IT was another huge round for the NBL with Cairns Taipans, minus Taran Armstrong and Tanner Groves, brought right back to the field by Perth and Sydney, Brad&Boti podcast colleague Brad Rosen at that game and also to see Illawarra humble Tasmania.
Time Out - The No Flop Zone is back on YouTube
WE ARE BACK! Not sure everyone in the NBL will exactly be thrilled by that news but our Time Out - No Flop Zone podcast has returned, featuring the wisdom and insider knowledge of legendary coach Joey Wright (3xCoach of the Year and NBL Championship coach) and myself, Boti Nagy (nothing impressive to put in these brackets).
NBL: There's a foul smell brewing
THE NBL made it clear before the season tipped off it was going to speed up the game - no on-court huddles holding up free throw attempts the most obvious innovation. But when they stop calling obvious and blatant fouls just to keep the game moving along? That's what Round 4 threw up, sadly.
NBL: Such is Life for Kelly

MIKE Kelly may have been the only person last night who did not realise he was coaching for his NBL career when his wayward South East Melbourne served up more dross and another loss for 0-5. Most of the coaches sounded out on the quiet knew if the Phoenix fell to 0-5, the trigger would be pulled on Kelly's tenure.

BRAD&BOTI: We've changed our format! Those of you who regularly tune in to our Brad&Boti podcast, featuring Sydney multi-media man Brad Rosen and myself, will notice we're doing it a little differently now we've passed that milestone 150-episode mark.
NBL: Taipan triumphs amid more TV trash
OK, got a confession to make. Did not look deeply enough into Adam Forde's Cairns Taipans roster or expect Taran Armstrong to be so good so quickly. On the flip side of a happy discovery, WTF was the NBL thinking cutting away from the thrilling Illawarra-Adelaide finish to bring us Sydney-Brisbane preview drivel?
