Basketball On The Internet.

SOMETIMES you do things because you have to and sometimes it just seems like a good idea at the time.

So back in 2001, the NBL came up with this great idea, as nude calendars were all the rage at the time. The league launched its first nude calendar, massaging the project's name from the much-used "nothing but net" basketball term to "Nothin' ... but skin".

Now I've collected a lot of basketball stuff over the years, but when I stumbled across this, I knew I had to share it with you. And I know many of you wait for it every month now.

Judging by the reactions, you've been enjoying it too, though Mr July might wish this didn't come back to plague him, now he is a Fox Sports commentator and QBL coach.

MR JULY: West Sydney Razorbacks import and 1990 league MVP, Derek Rucker.
