If you have been reading on the NBL website, the blaze are looking for a replacement for Cadee. Bruce and Tait are who they are looking at. Joey apperntly wants Bruce but he is not sure he wants to come back.

Get Lindsay. He is starting to grow up finally, will work well with Pero Cameron who is apparently involved coaching wise, and will be infinitely better for his experience as a starting guard at the highest level in Turkey.

Earlier in the year I was quite anti Lindsay Tait when his name was mentioned with the Breakers. I now think that he would be a great fit at either Webster or Henare's expense due to his recent form at the WC's where he has been outstanding. He has played solid d in every game and knocked down his open shots. Gold Coast would do well to have him on their team.

Absolutely. Aaron Bruce wouldnt be bad either though as your back-up!

He's not really close to signing - the article just says that he's been approached.

Sorry Doctor, bad use of a header for the topic. But I have heard that Joey is in favour of Bruce rather than Tait.

Yea and he is probably more in favour of Steve Nash over Bruce. No way it will happen though.

Can I just use this forum to reitterate my belief that Paul Henare is the most overrated basketballer of all time?

Agree with Skip. No way will Bruce come back - I believe he has already turned down offers to play in the NBL this year.

Yeah but that was before his marriage brokedown. He now has no reason to stay in the US and is looking to make his return. From all reports though his pricetag may still be a bit high, which for a bloke who has been out for a year is a bit ludicrous.

My guess is he will be back in the league next season. With injuries to Cadee (GC), Williams (Cairns) and Rhys Martin (Gong) there are three pg spots up for grabs, all Aaron needs to do is pick a team and take a slight pay cut. I'm sure after one or two seasons back his stocks will rise again.
