#NBL #Bryce Cotton #Sydney Kings

The NBL Championship Series is set: Sydney Kings v Adelaide 36ers — best-of-five.

This week on Time-Out – The No Flop Zone, Joey Wright and Boti Nagy break down everything you need to know before Game One in Sydney.

Sydney swept Perth 2–0. Adelaide battled past SEM in three.
 Now it’s the two best teams standing.

We dive into:

• Bryce Cotton’s scoring average this finals series
• Whether the Adelaide crowd got to Nathan Sobey
• What Perth and SEM must do moving forward
• The emotional impact of Ken Cole’s passing and whether it lifted Adelaide
• Tactical breakdown of Game One
• Championship predictions

Plus we tackle big-picture topics:

• Do modern imports truly understand how strong the NBL has become?
• Are vacant playoff seats about pricing?
• How would we fix NBA tanking?
• How important is FIBA experience when recruiting imports?
• If Patty Mills is healthy and playing, does he walk straight back into the Boomers?

We also acknowledge the passing of Ken Cole and Mike Slusher, and send thoughts to Tony Barnett.

No spin. No fluff. Just honest basketball conversation.
