BOTH podcast colleague Brad Rosen and I agree Southside officially will wrap up fourth place in the WNBL playoffs against Canberra, wonder if Bendigo has finally hit the wall, and discuss what's happening in the NBL since the round started with an overblown incident in the Brisbane-Adelaide clash.
Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE: Was that really a brawl?

WHAT really happened in that overhyped so-called NBL "brawl" between Brisbane and Adelaide and were the penalties appropriate? Joey Wright and I discuss it in detail at our Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast this week before we also break down several team breakdowns.
Fines prove clash was much ado about precious little
AND, as is revealed by today's penalties from the NBL's Games Review Panel, that whole Brisbane-Adelaide mini-melee so predictably described by newspapers as "Basketbrawl" - how unbelievably imaginatively original - was, to paraphrase The Bard, quite typically much ado about precious little.
Brad&Boti: Izzy dizzy and key King stings

BENDIGO Spirit guard Isobel Borlase is coming off a three-game WNBL stint in which she has wracked up 98 points while Kings guard Kendric Davis has gone off for 40 in an NBL round that Brad&Boti podcast colleague Brad Rosen and I could hardly wait to sink our teeth into.
Bigger than Basketball brings greats together
THE biggest names in Australian basketball - greats such as Andrew Gaze, Phil Smyth, Mark Bradtke, Cal Bruton, David Andersen and Ricky Grace - always showed up when it mattered and they're back together again next month for a cause "bigger than basketball".
Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE: Injuries cruel club hopes

INJURIES have devastated NBL programs across the board with, not coincidentally, only league leaders Adelaide and South East Melbourne avoiding prolonged absences, prompting Joey Wright and I to investigate the issue in this week's Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast.
Torrey takes worry from Kings moving forward
THE return to the NBL of athletic import forward Torrey Craig substantially changes Sydney's championship aspirations in the wake of the Kings' recent season-ending loss of defensive specialist Bul Kuol. Even at 35, the 538-game NBA veteran has plenty to offer, the Kings now very much in contention again.
Lynx hijinks masks lack of Plan B
DESPITE securing arguably the greatest recruiting coup in WNBL history with the signing of China's 211cm international superstar centre Han Xu, Perth's blatant lack of a "Plan B" hovers once again as its Achilles Heel ahead of imminent WNBL playoffs, Isobel Borlase at Bendigo and Courtney Woods at Townsville ready to lead their teams past the Lynx.
Brad&Boti: Hoops Fest was a huge success

WHAT a glorious round of WNBL and NBL basketball Hoops Fest gave us last week in Perth, podcast colleague Brad Rosen especially blown away by the event's success. So yes, of course it is at the forefront of this week's Brad&Boti podcast discussions, along with our women's MVP pick and much more.
Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE: Oops, hot mic insights

JOEY Wright and I are "caught in the act" at this week's Time Out-NO FLOP ZONE podcast, talking about the 36ers-JackJumpers' NBL game on a hot mic before the episode fires up. And we certainly do fire up this round after watching some memorable games of NBL action.
