Drewy's commentary

Drewy's grasp of pronouncing names aint great is it, he calls Nathan Jawai "Jaywa" and Darren Ng something completely wrong too (can't remeber what) and numerous other players that don't spring to mind. Other than that Drewy's gettin better, he musta been pulled aside and told not to go on big rants like he used to, i also like Carfino however his voice isn't very Marv Albert like. Something i've noticed with NBA games is how much they ignore the action on the court and talk about past games/players etc. I feel the mix at the moment in the NBL is good, at least better without Casey who calls it like a radio call.

Quick thing about Drewy on Saturday night.

While doing the Keno Competition at halftime on Saturday night. Andrew was standing out in the court about to do some sorta halftime talk for Fox.

Bonz has asked the Keno Competetion winner how many baskets he is gonna nominate to hit out of 20 fouls shots. The guy nominates 6 shots.

Drewy turns around to me with the most puzzled look on his face and says...

"Only 6? Thats Easy?!?!"

The guy hit 2!!

As is for all soft pop video shows, basketball is best watched without sound.

Skip, and that woman could nominated anyone to shoot for her, right? Surely she might've wanted to pick someone who could make the distance on a free throw?

Yep. heck, I would have found the best basketballer I could find and toss him a couple of hundred bucks!

Maher wasnt doing anything that night!

Surely the guy would have gone to a park and had a couple of practice shots and realised this was gonna be a struggle.
