Anything and everything to do with 3x3 and 5x5 basketball from New Zealand and beyond ... you'll find them in this blog ... at least we will try our very best to cover them!
Basketball is a great passion of mine. I'm not really tall (just 5-9) but I do love this sport, ever since I was a young boy. It helped that my father was a very good basketball player. He married young and was a varsity player. I used to come with him to the games when I was a young lad. I loved how the game was played and the excitement of the crowd was fantastic!
They say height is might in basketball. But I've seen much shorter players do extremely well in the FIBA Oceania, NBA, NBL, Euroleague, NCAA, UAAP, Eurobasket, WNBA, CBL, IBL, Olympics, PBA, Commonwealth Games, ABA Jones Cup, FIBA Asia, Afrobasket, NBA-D League, Eurocup, Latinbasket and many more. I believe that height is important but also not to discount determination, ability and a big heart! I've seen huge upsets from much bigger and taller guys beaten by a smaller but cohesive team.
Let the games begin!
