Fuck me that Owen's a gimp. He took a dive you prick.

Not so much Basketball. It's very hard on the body, especially if you're a big guy or a post player where you're constantly taking hits from other guys who are 6.10 and 260lbs.

On top of that there is the travel and the training and the amount of times you have to play on consecutive nights.

It's much tougher than the life of a footballer who might ocassionally have to play 3 times in 1 week for a month, especially with the amount of squad rotation that goes on. That happens much less in Basketball.

Our situation is bad now, but we've got to crack on.

Basketball is virtually non-contact, rolling subs and endless tea breaks and other stoppages with very little running.

If we were playing Kiev on Tuesday and this game was yesterday this would not be the line-up

Yeah as an extra day to recover for the cup final. But we are not.

I'll assume you don't play then

Fuck me, you obviously don't play the game. The rules might say non contact, but I promise you, it's far from that.

I was forced to at one point, a dreadful boring game.

Ah well, it's takes all sorts. I played it and loved it.
