In: NBL, SA — Wednesday, 24 May, 2023

WHEN the talk turns to "mature-age recruits", few will top the Adelaide 36ers recent signing of star American NBL1 Central forward Alex Starling, who as a recently naturalised Aussie, will make his long overdue NBL debut as a 34-year-old warrior in Season 2023-24.

WNBL awards almost an SA clean sweep

In: WNBL, SA — Monday, 6 Mar, 2023

THERE's been more than a few lean years nationally for players and teams out of South Australia, so an almost clean sweep of the individual accolades in the WNBL - led by Cayla George's MVP victory - has gone some distance toward restoring some pride to a state struggling to vaguely resemble its former glories.

Temporarily Out of Order? No longer!

In: NBL, WNBL, Boomers & Opals, NBA, SA, Flashbacks, Misc — Wednesday, 15 Feb, 2023

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...

B&B: Unsung coaching heroine is back Down Under

In: WNBL, SA — Friday, 11 Nov, 2022

A FORMER captain of the Canberra Capitals, a WNBL championship winner in Adelaide Lightning's greatest ever team and one of our most unsung yet successful international coaches, Cherie Cordoba joins Brad Rosen and I for our Brad&Boti podcast. But let's face it. You most likely remember her as Cherie Hogg or Hoggy.

Father's Day! Give dad that book he craves!

In: NBL, Boomers & Opals, NBA, SA — Thursday, 1 Sep, 2022

THERE'S still time but do not delay! Father's Day is upon us once again on Sunday but it's not too late to rush to your local bookstore and buy dad the one gift he was too bashful to officially request! We here at B.O.T.I. strongly recommend the purchase of one of two good books to show him how much you care.

Get in early for dad's big day

In: NBL, WNBL, Boomers & Opals, NBA, SA, Flashbacks, Misc — Tuesday, 26 Jul, 2022

THE NBL may be busy with its draw for the 2022-23 season, open roof game on December 23, Christmas Eve matches and even a breakthrough Christmas Day (Night?) fixture. But coming up much faster is Father's Day and maybe this year it's time to start thinking early to find dad the ideal gift.

Taking a (short) break

In: NBL, WNBL, Boomers & Opals, NBA, SA, Misc — Friday, 15 Jul, 2022

JUST finished a terrific project for WILKINSON PUBLISHING so taking a few days off to recharge the batteries. Guessing you'll survive without the website's take on what should have been a Boomers' avalanche over Saudi Arabia. Looking forward to being back next week. Cheers all.

Joey's 'one-stop' 24-hour spot for ballers

In: NBL, WNBL, SA — Sunday, 19 Jun, 2022

FINALLY and at long last! Adelaide has its first and only 24-hour basketball training facility at SHOOT HQ in suburban Beverley, all courtesy of "the Coach" Joey Wright. As if his all-inclusive Transition Sports programs were not already enough, the NBL championship winner has branched even further out.
