What's Hot/What's Not
Better late than never...
What's Hot:
- Cheapshot Mckay's shooting stroke, 28 points at 10/22, 3/8 3PT, 5/5 FT, 9 rebounds in 41 minutes. Man was on fire so much I thought it was 1985!
- The up-coming Cleo photo-shoot with Paul Rees
- Jason Warhurst, if you didn't know before you know now that this mo-fo can play. He cross-overed his way to 29 points on 9/19 shooting with 5/10 beyond the arc.
- L.L.Hawkes (Looselips), knocking down 25 points on 11/22 shooting, with at least 5 team members abused on court as well in a good all-round performance
- Johnny Walker black label, once you go black you never go back (to red)
- Eastern Mavericks fans at North, all well behaved in a close environment full of noise with a good portion of children watching the game, good to see
- Dallas Quigley, just yet another cool name going around the ABL
- Erik Burdon, nice few weeks with 19 and 14.
- Oscar's 26 points and 22 rebounds vs South as Sturt outrebounds the Panthers 70-50
- Pasadena's Music Man - we sent him threats by post re Linkin Park and he obliged and played something different
- Shaqdiddy winning his first ever game of Halo 2 with a last gasp shot, 25-24-24.
- Ali hitting the quarter-century - happy birthday!
What's Not:
- Nick Hambour's mouth, two techs in the game, someone bring some disinfectant to the next game at Hillcrest because that man is dirty!
- The latest seasons of The Simpsons, personally stopped watching back in 2000, does anyone else think they should cut the cord on the show like their name was Terri Schiavo
- North Adelaide at the free throw line shooting 52%, Loveday's request for the bigs to play more like Shaq may have been taken a little too literally
- Jessy McCartney, more annoying than Ashton Kutcher, well not quite
- ABL websites, seriously more than a few are just are not updated, don't help attract juniors to the sport and give no usefull info at all. I know it is shoe-string budgets we are talking about but it's time some clubs lifted their game, not mentioning names, NORTH ADELAIDE, CENTRAL, WOODVILLE!
- 50 cent
- Certain ex-state players spotted entering a strip club, you perverts know who you are
- The dude from Eastern that Mavs fans call the "real Shaq Daddy", I'm sorry but every slightly-overweight guy ever to pick up a ball has been given that name, maybe news travels slowly up in little old Barker
- The Extra by Jimoen and You and Your stupid mate, Australian cinema gets further and further away from Chopper and Idiot Box straight into the depths of cinematic hell that is a vomiting up a Yiros after a night on the town
- Stuart Campbell breaking a chair in South's game after missing his only shot for the night - real classy!
- Slick not being at Pasadena
- Comforting Shaqdiddy because Slick wasn't at Pasadena
Flop of the week:
- Sorry to do this to the dude because he has been playing well lately, but Nick Hambour had 9 points on 4/11 with 6 fouls including two techs against what isn't the greatest front-line in the league, still a bit hard to score when Cheapshot and L.L.Hawkes have 44 shots between them.
