So much to discuss and dissect on the first episode for 2020 of Hoops Heaven's Basketball Hustle and it all starts with the new Perth Wildcats signing and a wrap up of the Cairns Taipans' big win to start Round 15 against the New Zealand Breakers.
The first show of 2020 sees NBL Writer Chris Pike and The Scoring Machine Shawn Redhage open up by discussing the signing for the Wildcats of Miles Plumlee to replace Dario Hunt. Shawn provides some insight into why he thinks it is the right move and then preview's Friday's game against the Illawarra Hawks which he thinks can determine first place on the NBL ladder
There's then a recap of the Cairns Taipans win on Thursday night against the New Zealand Breakers to send them into third position and which according to Shawn, locks them in for a playoff position.
There's then a full breakdown of each team in the NBL as the hosts take a detailed look at the Sydney Kings, Melbourne United, Adelaide 36ers, Brisbane Bullets, NZ Breakers, South East Melbourne Phoenix and Illawarra Hawks, and their prospects.
Talk then turns to a Twenty20 Charity Match organised by Greg Hire to be played at the WACA Ground on Friday February 7 with Shawn sharing some of his past cricket exploits.
Things then get a bit more serious with talk about the NBL introducing a Replay Centre before a full preview of the rest of Round 15 in the NBL.
