So some good news from
GB basketball today who have finally launched an online shop. Some great stuff in it. GB vests are £60 without name and number on their £70 with.

So @gbbasketball.bsky.social are systematically destroying any goodwill that we as fans of British Basketball have in them. To deny @mcrbball.bsky.social the chance to play in Europe is just petty and I hope they get taken to the cleaners in court!!

Please can all fans of British Basketball sign up and subscribe to the @thebbfa.bsky.social we need our voice to be heard!!

So Newcastle Eagles have reached a European basketball final and not one mention of it on the BBC Sport website or 5live news bulletins! Shameful!!

Looking forward to reading this. The autobiography of Sonny Vaccaro the man and legend that signed Jordan to Nike.

Also congratulations on Rheanne being named as assistant coach for the GB under 20 Women in summer 2025! Hannah Shaw is also the U16 girls team manager!

Are you going to get him on the podcast?

Have to say that its great to see the competitive nature of the matches in the @sprleaguebballm.bsky.social just goes to show what happens when teams are put together with the power balanced among them not just tilted in favour of one of them.

Yeah. Badly written as they have put Slovakia in our group and not Czechia!

Hey @mcrbball.bsky.social I believe its associate head coach Matt Pitkin’s birthday today. Happy Birthday to him from all of us involved with Cambridgeshire Basketball.

What a win for the GB men against Greece last night 73-72 in the @fiba.basketball euro qualifiers. It may not have been Greece’s strongest team but it was still stacked with Euroleague talent. They are 10 in the world we are 50. You can only play what is in front of you.

We may just have the best uniforms in both the men and women’s @sprleaguebballm.bsky.social

OH YES! Please tell us we will be able to order them very soon?

@hoopincazzyb.bsky.social in the house! THE voice of Manchester Basketball!!

But basically it’s the same team that Gareth was head coach for. So if it’s like a football team that gets a new manager all the players step up their game to become favourites. London will win but I predict it will be closer than a lot think.

Mike Tyson looks STACKED! he has to go for the knockout/stoppage early because Paul will have the better stamina/conditioning.

Welcome to the BlueSky party…when can we expect the rest of the teams to move across?

Definitely need more British Basketball organisations, teams and accounts on here so I can set up a starter pack.

I’ve moved like so many to get away from XITTER so I can enjoy sensible chats about the things I love Basketball, Sport and much more.
