Last 2 months of @FlynnRaffet has been one of the most incredible things I've ever seen in British basketball. Thrust in starters, he scored 217 points in 10 games, take out the game he got injured he's averaged 23.4ppg in 9 games. Can't think of many British rookies done that

Feel for Torrey Craig after he missed a game tying free throw in the NBL Finals but Adelaide-Sydney is deserving of a fifth and deciding game for the title. I’ve enjoyed watching this series as much as any playoff series at ANY level in the last few years.

no one is more stressed than someone who has seen their potential and knows they aren't living up to it.

Manager: We need to terminate Simon immediately. HR Manager: Wow, that’s serious. What happened? Manager: I discovered he is using a mouse mover. HR Manager: A mouse mover? Manager: Yes, it keeps his status “available” when he’s not at his computer working. HR Manager: Okay. Is his work getting done? Manager: Oh yeah, but that’s not the point. HR Manager: Is he meeting deadlines? Manager: Yes. HR Manager: Any performance concerns? Manager: No. HR Manager: So what exactly is the issue? Manager: His status is available when he’s not actively at his desk working. HR Manager: How do you know he’s not working when his status is available? Manager: I messaged him one day last week when he was active, and it took him 35 minutes to reply. HR Manager: Okay, that doesn’t necessarily mean he’s using a mouse mover. He could have been working on something else and not seen the message. Manager: Well, after that incident, I asked IT to look into it, and they confirmed he’s using one. Now I track his status throughout the day, and he’s always available. HR Manager: You track his status all day? Manager: Yes, I check it every 10 to 15 minutes. HR Manager: But his work is getting done? Manager: Yes, but the mouse mover is dishonest. HR Manager: And monitoring an employee’s status all day is what exactly? Manager: Good management. HR Manager: Let me get this straight. He completes his work, he meets deadlines, and your problem is that he’s using a mouse mover? Manager: Yes. HR Manager: I don’t think the issue here is the mouse mover. I think the issue here is the mouse watcher. (The manager walks out of the HR office disappointed.)

Labor market so cooked that this is how it genuinely feels to get an email back from an employer…

all men: "yeah, i'm alright" men actually:

SLB Cup Final reaction is out now 🏆 London Lions come back in the second half to win it by 9. Johnson drops 30+. McGusty takes MVP. Late drama at the end… Full breakdown and all the talking points on this week’s SLB Show. 🏀 Watch here: youtu.be/7LS8Ln9ytLA?si…

BEING BROKE IS ONE THING, BUT WATCHING YOURSELF GET OLDER WITHOUT ANY PROGRESS IN LIFE??? THAT IS STRAIGHT UP DEPRESSION.

When life’s so cooked, you start spending your free time like this.

As my goat once said:

And with that, the next season of coaching comes to a close. Adjusting my style to the women’s game, both at senior and u14 level was never going to be an easy shift, but it’s one I have learned from. What’s next? Adapt, reflect, and change focus in lieu of the summer

I wish I could get one tiny spoiler of my future… just enough to know I’ll be okay

“The average job opening now receives 242 applications.”

@Prophesy_Scout Very much so, seeing their skills across this season has been impressive to watch. A really fun and dynamic league with each team having their own character. With their experience in the Asia competitions and Intercontinental Cup, I do wonder if South East Melbourne would fit

Well, the physicality/athleticism of the Australian teams are typically a big difficulty for other Asian teams in FIBA Asian events - would definitely translate to club, especially with the majority of teams having 2 import limits. If Japan wants to grow though, they have to beat that.

An Aussie NBL team joining the East Asian Basketball League would be so interesting. I don't care about the administrative hoops you'd have to go through, it'd propel Asian/Oceanian ball to a WHOLE new level.

Hot take: nobody ever liked the LOB art blue eyes and only reason it's chased is because its "the first pullable blue eyes". Meanwhile the SDK/DDS art is what we saw on the show, we PLAYED, is our literal childhood. It aint even close. 🫳 🎤
