Think Casey was waiting all year to say 'BRISNEYLAND'...anyone playing Kent's drinking game, should down some hard liquor for that one! W$E$L$L D$O$N$E Brisbane. Oh and love the way CJ goes in and out of a US accent haha

So guess Joey Wright gets to keep his job! Money can buy a Cinderella story too, the MVP, ridiculous winning streak, and now the title. Without sounding too bitter, its got to be slightly hollow, as they blatantly cheated the salary cap system!

Awesome to see/hear the Tiger supporters still cheering there team during presentations. Good for the league, to have that kind of core support.

Im with you Kobe 24

funny how Black gets called for 1 foul in Brisbane in game 3, and 4 fouls tonight in Melbourne

The Refs have been poor this series

The question i ask is

should Corletto have started in game 4?

His outside shooting in the 4th ..got them back in the game

Terrible coaching leaving Tucker, DMac, Anstey off the court for extended periods during the game.

The 2nd time he did it at the end of the 3rd cost Melb any chance of making it a game.

Kobe24,
Does that mean our Championships in 98 and 98/99 are slightly hollow as well?

HAHA, Nino you beat me to both those observations. That Brisneyland call was so forced it actually made me laugh. (at you Casey, not with) and Bruton sounds stupid with his double accent. Does anoyone know if that is that natural or does he deliberately try and sound American?

I also agree with Kobe24... apart from waking up and feeling hung over tomorrow, the championship would have to feel a little hollow. You think they would justify it by saying that Melbourne were salary cap cheats as well?

Anon, I'm actually too sure of the 6ers or any other teams salry cap issue now or in the past. But know Adelaide has been fined before. Seems every man and his dog knows this Bullets, is THE highest paid ever though of any NBL team. Ere is on like $300k alone! So I stand by my opinion.

I think it was a great final series, with the two best NBL teams playing.

And anyone playing the Casey drinking game shouldn't be coming too until this after noon. Bloody Brisneyland, how stupid.

IMO Sam Mac didn't deserve the MVP - I think CJ or even Black were more deserving.

Can someone please direct me to the book that states that Ere is on $300K and a factual breakdown of the cost of this team. I don't deny that Brisbane are over the salary cap but to actually state figures, it must be written somewhere. I would like to confirm this. They won the grand final against a team that also supposedly cheats the salary cap. They beat a team in the semi's that have had the most complaints in the past about cheating the cap. That made the competition more even. As for the Tiger's fans, I take my hat off to them for their behaviour in defeat. Many of those who stayed behind for the presentations were admirable and showed sportsmanship and true passion for the sport. I even got congrats from some around me who were aware I was supporting the Bullets.

You want the books that incriminate the Brisbane Bullets salary cap? C'mon EC. The NBL have said that they struggle to police the cap, but they wouldn't be taken that much for a fool! Whats written in the books is different to what the players receive, hence its under the table money. That would go for certain players, on every team in the league Id imagine. But enough people from different circles, have said he is, and thats enough for me to believe it.
