DEMENTIA or insanity? Listeners of this week's Brad&Boti podcast only need to be paying close attention as former Sydney Kings captain and media man Brad Rosen or I stumble during an extensive coverage of the WNBL awards and playoffs, NBL Finals and Boomers, to reach the inevitable conclusion!

HOW did the Toronto Blue Jays stray into the conversation? Well this week at our Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast, Joey Wright and I are talking NBL coaching changes, major retirements, NBA, Kyrie Irving, answering viewer queries and so much more.
NBL: Greats retire as Finals feelings falter

NBL: Seriously, this was a Final?
SERIOUSLY. What the hell was that, NBL? Officiating which left a LOT to be desired, 2,975 fans - the lowest crowd of Season 2024-25 - in attendance, Bryce Cotton scoring more than half his 27 points from the free throw line ...

NBL: Challenge for Perth but not Bryce
PERTH Wildcats superstar Bryce Cotton tonight comfortably should collect his fifth MVP award but the question is will the West still be in full celebration mode tomorrow when Kylie Minogue, er, South East Melbourne hits town for the 3v4 Top Six double-chance opening round clash at Challenge Stadium?

THE NBL was swift in its reaction to Sydney Kings guard Jaylen Adams poking at the eyes of Illawarra's Wani Swaka Lo Buluk in a fiery exchange in the Hawks' 95-75 rout before Bryce Cotton's 49-point haul in the Wildcats' 112-104 win over Adelaide confirmed he again would be MVP.
