Bob's Corner: Dr J, Aussie Joe and Liz to the fore
BOB'S CORNER: Our US correspondent BOB Craven has the latest on a landmark achievement by Dr J - Julius Erving - Aussie star Joe Ingles is part of a unique duo, Liz Cambage is in the middle of a WNBA controversy (how rare) and Seattle Storm's Breanna Stewart has rocked a record which belonged to Lauren Jackson.
B&B: Kevin Brooks on 3x3, basketball and life
WE feel as though we did it again, Brad Rosen and I super-pleased with this week's Brad&Boti podcast in which NBA forward and dual-NBL championship-winner and Larry Sengstock Championship MVP medallist Kevin Brooks reveals all about his life in basketball and Australia.
Bob's Corner: Here come the girls
BOB'S CORNER: Based in Seattle, our US correspondent BOB CRAVEN has the word on how our Aussie pair on the WNBA's Storm roster - Ezi Magbegor and Steph Talbot - have been travelling in the early going, twice running into Liz Cambage and her Aces, no less. And there's NBA news too!
Bob's Corner: Our Ezi is easy to love
BOB'S CORNER: Today our US correspondent BOB CRAVEN is providing a quick potpourri, ranging from triple-double news, (and not only by Russell Westbrook) and some notes on Ezi Magbegor of Seattle Storm in the WNBA, just after their first preseason game, the regular season now fully underway.
The Man Who Made the Opals
BRAD Rosen and I secured another interview coup this week when we managed to draw Australia's latest inductee into the FIBA Hall of Fame onto the program to talk titles, Olympics and coaching in general. This week's Piranha Media-sponsored Brad&Boti podcast features none other than the one and only Tom Maher.
Finally, Maher makes it into FIBA Hall of Fame
HE was the coach who took Australia from a "wannabe international powerhouse" and on to the medal dais for real, in the process showing all future Opals teams how it could and should be done as Australia reached for the sky, FIBA's Hall of Fame finally recognising his great and unique service to the game.
Opals' Olympic draw, squad, full of promise
VASTLY improved Belgium currently ranked #6 in the world by FIBA, is the biggest intragroup challenge for the Australian Opals at the (fingers-crossed) Tokyo Olympic Games this year.
That's a wrap, 2020 in hindsight
BRAD Rosen took a break from his Christmas shopping to sit down for one last 2020 podcast with me, but it's taken a while to recover and post the thing, so forgive us for being dated. At least we're not quite ready for carbon-dating.
