Did anyone notice that on the raptors website one of the updates is about the canadian national team winning but if you look at the phone Dave Thomas is playing for canada. I thought he had knee issues and needed time off before next season..

Article from Hoopsworld:

"Nathan Jawai was at Impact Basketball today working out with new front court partner Jermaine O'Neal. The young man from Australia gave Sam Mitchell an eyeful as he went through a number of drills to demonstrate both his physical prowess under the basket and his soft shooting touch.

First was a serious of low post power moves - Jawai on one side and O'Neal on the other. Jawai is a huge physical specimen, and he showed right away that he has the footwork and the raw power to be lethal under the hoop. Next up was a series of shooting drills, one of which had him shooting one-handed from the free throw line extended. He made a high percentage of those shots, too, and definitely has the potential to be a mid-range threat. Together with his power game under the basket he could turn out to be an important player for the Raptors this season."

The only part that annoys me is when the interviewer has to start directing it towards what Australian ball is like and "if you hope this improves the game in Australia".

Not that it's a bad thing, but the questions are coming from people that in all honesty, don't give a shit at all about anything outside of the NBA.

Here's hoping Jawai can replicate his NBL debut and get his "Shaq Dunking" on.

(Sorry, I don't know how else to describe his technique... it's shaq dunking)
