Signed in the BBL with last season minor premiers, very tough competition is the German league and more physical than nbl. Bonn has an excellent point guard so Delaney should do well.

It isn't more physical than the NBL in the first half of last season, but more physical than later in the season once the officiating changed. Finn won't have any dramas with that.

The reason that a lot of imports that play in Europe and then come to the nbl and get into foul trouble is the nbl calls a lot of soft stuff that other leagues don't, take notice how the international refs just refereed the boomers.

As I said previously, this is a good place to play out of, high ranking German team, plays in BCL in Europe and very well coached and financially strong. Finn should do well.

Dunkman yes look at the 3 Asian referees on the boomers game, incompetent as ever. It's not that they don’t call soft stuff they don’t call anything! Boomers v Philippines rings a bell

No, it's because the physicality is different in Australia than in Europe. But when the NBL isn't being called tightly, it is one of the most physical leagues in the world.
Eddie Gill had played NBA and Euroleague and said NBL was more physical than both. Jae'Sean Tate talked about how the physicality of the NBL made the NBA seem easier in some ways.
