Shooters!

Round 4 in the NBL season is done already? As per usual the season is flying but we are loving it. DJ Vasiljevic injected some new life into Adelaide, as did Jo Lual-Acuil Jr (even though Melbourne don't need it) did for United and so did big Alan 'Sauce' Williams to the Phoenix. All that, as well as Cayla George in the WNBA grabbing our attention.

Credit to players that play their role so so well, Rob Loe, you were on both of our minds this week. Flowers, Toohey, Madut - a bunch tickled our fancy as we dive into that, mortgages, tagging players in content and more. Oh and thanks for listening, as always. Shooters! Podcast is hosted by NBL player, Tasmania JackJumper, Jack McVeigh and a hoops fan, in the NBL Digital and Media team, Darren B

We caught up face-to-face in Melbourne, Jack came to town with Darren present, the Jackies cooked up a big win on the road, Fab shattered a backboard and let's talk about Milton Doyle, that man is as smooth as anyone in the league. Shooters! Podcast is hosted by NBL player, Tasmania JackJumper, Jack McVeigh and a hoops fan, in the NBL Digital and Media team, Darren Barker.

The NBL is officially back and we're here to talk the talk about everything in round 1. Delly and Melbourne and firing, there's already an MVP candidate in New Zealand, Jack talks about how Tassie "shot themselves in the foot" and the guys are in sync as they show each other some love in the return of Hype Up and dive more into what each owning a house now means.

The two newest Vice Captains for the Tasmania JackJumpers are on the podcast together and in the same room, what a setup. Our own Jack McVeigh and teammate Fabijan Krslovic not only live together but have just recently been named as two captains of their ball club. Congrats fellas. Rate your housemate, NBL Trivia and a winning mentality for "Fab", this is a fun one.

Fantasy basketball, let’s get stuck into it. We both made an NBL SuperCoach team and debated our picks PLUS made our very own Shooters pod league (Shooters Pod 132517 are the details) so join it now and if you win you’ll get a signed Jack McVeigh jersey. Preseason hoops, the Boomers campaign and we’re heading up to the Gold Coast for the NBL Blitz this week, how lovely.

Friend of Jack's turns friend of the show as Ben Ayre joins the panel as we talk confidence, trash talk, going for that NBL1 championship and more.

We're ready for you to begin, NBL season. We take a look at where all NBL teams are currently at in terms of rosters and throw out our biggest talking points for every one. Jack also makes Darren choose his way-too-early prediction for NBL champion which always ends well.

Hey, we're back. Yes we'll admit we took some weeks off but our break is over and to be quite honest with you, both of us are pretty pumped to get back into our chats and into the NBL season in general. Jack's in full offseason workout mode with Tassie training sessions kicking off and Darren's in NBL offseason mode for himself with NBL1 and Summer League taking over. Good to be ba...

The importance of role players come up every single year around Playoff time and with good reason. Let's talk about it. Caleb Martin, you killed it, Gabe Vincent, Duncan Robinson - you all lifted your game. Bruce Brown, Aaron Gordon, I'm looking at you during the NBA Finals. Caleb Martin almost single handedly allowed Miami to beat Boston in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference NBA Playoffs, s...

Jimmy Butler, a great of the game, Jimmy Butler when in the Playoffs, I don't even know how to describe it. A switch flicks, a different level is unlocked, it's so fun to watch and follow the journey. From the on court show to the off court press conferences, one of my favourite things in the league.

Our first in-person recording, and we're coming to you live from Jack's apartment in Heidelberg, Germany. We discuss the wonders and quirks of Germany and hit on NBL Free Agency as a whole.

We're here to learn everything about what Jack thought of Tasmania's second season in the NBL, what he's feeling and thinking about next season, as well as just getting to know a bit more about the great man.

There I said it, Banchero is unofficially the NBA Rookie Of The Year for season 2022/23. He has to be, from day one with the Orlando Magic he was the alpha and never looked back. I love Jalen Williams, what he has done for OKC in year one can't go unnoticed, the same with Walker Kessler and even Shaedon Sharpe to an extent, but only one name remains at the top, Paolo Banchero.

Georgia Amoore, just a kid from Ballarat lighting up the NCAA Tournament big stage. She became the all-time leader in 3's made in NCAA Tournament history, how about that? She has my attention and she's been balling for Virginia Tech. Welcome to the first of our 'Quickfire' episodes, it's in the moment, it's short and it's a bit of fun to tackle different topics, let us...

Experiencing the Sydney Kings winning the Championship is a big mood on ground level, but watching it overseas? That's a different story. We give an insight into both experiences as well as some cool content captured on the day. That, post-game dances after wins in Germany, anxiety while flying, 6 hour bus rides, a marriage in the family, stat chasing triple doubles - this is Episode 20.

Legit question, what are the benefits of jerseys with sleeves in basketball? Jack's first game in Germany, 2 MVP's are going to the big smoke in the USA (Shoutout Xavier Cooks and Cayla George) and thoughts and discussions around the weird and wonderful NBL Championship Series tied at 1-1.

Jack's hooping in Germany and the rumours are that Darren may join him in the near future. We may be on opposite sides of the country but we're back and we're talking all things Germany, language barriers, new teammates, first impressions, the lot. There's been some elevator drama back in Australia and we're both pretty pumped about the Championship Series starting. Have a listen to it all, danke...

We recap our run-in at the NBL Awards Night, plus, it's Playoff basketball time and the JackJumpers are right in the thick of it. Jack details the lead up to these big games including escaping the extreme weather in New Zealand (just).   Lastly, Happy Valentine's day to all. Spread the love and listen to our podcast with your loved one.

The time has come, the 2022/23 NBL Regular Season is coming to a close and with the Season Awards right around the corner, we thought we better make our own calls and predictions on them.  MVP, Next Generation Award, All-NBL Teams, we're doing the whole thing.

Dirk Nowitzki, Jack McVeigh and one foot fadeaway jump shots, it's an elite combination and the two players got to meet this week in Tassie. Hear about what lessons Dirk gave the JackJumpers, a new award in the NBL, why Rayjon Tucker is winning fans on and off the court and lastly, have we finally got an answer to the GOAT debate?

Let's talk Jack's career high (tied) in points, also about his back-to-back dunks that was fun until it wasn't. It's a big week if you're a McVeigh on the pod, but Darren got to experience some pretty cool moments over the week in the Tennis world, including meeting Novak Djokovic. We're talking those things, predictions, Last Chance U, Davo Hickey, the unreal support Jack has received, let's do t...

What's with the amount of points players are scoring at the moment? Basketball has gone crazy over the last 2 weeks and we want to touch on it all. Christmas gifts, 2023 goals (100 push-ups anyone?), media careers, all things NBL photography at NBL Raw, toe injuries, episode 13 is a fun one folks.

We are honoured to be joined by Adelaide 36ers guard Sunday Dech as our first ever guest on the show. Specifically, we talk about his online blog, www.sundayservice.page, where he gives us all an insight into his thoughts and feelings on being a professional athlete in quite a cool way. That, Shooters! merch, hyping up some performances, Sunday's thoughts on Ian Clarke, we've got a lot for you thi...

We're hyping people up this episode by introducing a new segment, Jack gives Darren and Shooters! some love in Grateful For, and we talk about that big win against Sydney in typical JackJumpers fashion.
