NBL, BA, FIBA ... Maybe have a Chat?
OUR Australia E team tips off tonight now in its second-last FIBA World Cup qualifying game - the Boomers have already qualified by the way - against Bahrain but this disruption to the NBL Championship Series truly is unconscionable and just makes winning their fourth title that much tougher for Mody Maor's New Zealand.
And in the end ... the correct teams are there

THE NBL genuinely enjoyed an amazing regular season, its "play-in" tournament a huge success and both semi finals went the distance to produce the Grand Final - oops, "Championship Series" - between Sydney and New Zealand many craved and expected.
BA up the creek with 'secret doctrine'
THE announcement today of the Boomers' E team to tackle incoming FIBA featherweights Bahrain and Kazakhstan in this latest World Cup qualifying window again starkly exposes Basketball Australia as reinforcing some kind of anti-Mitch Creek agenda.
Temporarily Out of Order? No longer!
DEAR Reader. Here it is. Why the Basketball On The Internet website has been idle for more than two months. If you don’t really give a flying frapdoodle (thank you Bill Palmer), that’s easy, skip this link and just move on back to the stories as they tumble in over the coming days. But if you enjoy true horror...
NBL23 Rd10: Back on a grand scale
MELBOURNE and Brisbane once fought it out for the NBL championship. In Round 10, they're fighting for their 2022-23 futures. So too Adelaide and Perth, the round tipping off with the top sides, Sydney and New Zealand opposed, before the Kings host Tasmania in a championship rematch.
Rd9 NBL23: Time to tidy up a few areas
TECHNICAL fouls. The NBL's referees should start giving them out. In an NBL round full of surprise results and JackJumpers import Milton Doyle scoring a season-high 33 points, the moaning and whining of players and coaches at almost every call is a bigger blight on the league than any "delay of game".
NBL23 Rd9: Challenge for 'Doomsday Doublers'
ADELAIDE and Perth once provided the NBL with its toughest road pairing, a trip universally known as the "Doomsday Double". Round 9 confronts both clubs with potential doomsday or defining scenarios as they work to find their past identities as playoff perennials.
NBL TOTW8: Four contenders, one heartbreaker
NO less than four clubs came into strong contention for Round 8's NBL Team of the Week honours, with Adelaide, South East Melbourne, New Zealand and Cairns receiving major consideration, and Tasmania an honourable mention for its fighting road win in Melbourne.
Rd8 NBL23: Wildcats, United, Bullets in strife
PERTH Wildcats, Melbourne United are in trouble and Brisbane Bullets are in a whopping great hole after NBL Round 8 threw up two surprise road winners in Adelaide and Tasmania while the Bullets, minus marquee Aron Baynes, stumbled to another ugly road loss.
Too late to have a beer with Duncan
BRISBANE has sacked NBL coach James Duncan and installed Bullets GM Sam Mackinnon to interim lead the troubled, troubling and under-performing outfit through the immediate future. Sure, the club played nice by saying it "parted ways" with Duncan, 45, but he clearly paid for the team's general lethargy.
