What will be the format?
Victoria United v Queensland Heat v NSW Blues v West Australian ...
Will it be similar to cricket, Soccer, Football, Rugby or Basketball?
If we go down the track of State of Origin for basketball could we see it truly basketball and truly state v state like it is in the Nationals, but we already have this in the juniors, don't we?
I would even go so far as to cap the age limit and provide the opportunity for our 25 and under players to showcase their talent, if it was only Australians involved. Again, sounds like Nationals and is that what we want?
Otherwise just leave it as Australia/NZ v the NBL Imports in an All-Star format, nothing wrong with this and people would get to know the players over say a three game series.
State of origin could be just too big and I am not sure the greater population would embrace it, yet!
In the end it will come down to how it is promoted I think...
