Does such a thing exist. Is there ANYWHERE in the country where you can buy any sort of official NBL DVDs? How I would love to see some DVDs of the 36ers 4 rings, Copeland Gaze glory days, Tigers vs Magic sell outs etc.

There was some 36ers History DVD done at some point, and I think the same people did a Wildcats one also. Not sure about other teams.
Ben Fitz and I looked into trying to set up something like Pontel (though for the NBL), but it'd be a lot of work for minimal return. Edit video, produce DVDs, postage and handling. Lose a cut to the league, to clubs and to handle the previous issues. Doesn't leave much and I can't imagine that the market is that lucrative.
Also considered a digital version (streamed or downloadable videos), and ideally with automatic highlights (only show segments with a Maher basket, or a home team dunk, or blocks only, etc), feeds per player, team, venue, and more. But again, it's a lot of work, people rarely pay for anything online, and bandwidth would come into play.
Last option might be torrents. Rip a game DVD (from the house feed) and get it up. But that's going to be difficult for many people to work out.

Im pretty sure you can get dvds of the game feed from the 36ers by contacting them, they cost about $10 each
