Matty B is still coming off some sickness so bare with the boys on this one. 

The NBA is yet to get into full swing so the lads do their best to drop some knowledge on you about all things in the league. Portland are raising some eyebrows with their undefeated start but one of the lads isn't sure it is sustainable. The tank job for the Alien isn't going well for some teams. Utah are doing their best to raise their value right before everyone is shipped out of town, start 3-1 on the season. Watch that diminish as they face the Houston Rockets, Memphis Grizzlies (twice) and Denver Nuggets over the next couple of days). A few more surprises in the roles of some Australian boys. Dyson Daniels comes up pretty influential in a big Ne Orleans Pelicans win over the Dallas Mavericks. And, Jock Landale also huge in the Phoenix Suns win over the Golden State Warriors. How many techs were dealt in this one?!

The boys come back home (to daddy) and chat a little NBL so that you guys get your full basketball fix. The Sydney Kings are trying to set the record straight and pump the Cairns Taipans into the ground this weekend. And another team to keep your eyes peeled for, the New Zealand Breakers. They come up against their first two big challenges in the Adelaide 36ers and the Tasmania JackJumpers. Are they on the rise or pulling the wool over everyone's eyes?

Enjoy this real Thursday episode - it was another tough carry for ya boys!
