Brian WindhorstGUEST
He should be able to recover from that, and his athleticism is off the charts.
Olgun UlucHOST
He's someone who Adam Caporn, the new Boomers head coach, I think will be looking at very closely because we spoke about it on the Hoop Collective live show.
Olgun UlucHOST
The four spot on that Boomers team is very fascinating because everyone is imperfect.
Olgun UlucHOST
If Johnny Firth is at the level, if he's as big as I think he is, and if he can guard and he can continue to hit shots, he's sort of the perfect guy there because you need someone who can make shots on that Boomers roster.
Jason CadeeHOST
Okay.
Brayden HeslehurstHOST
That's a great problem for Adam Caporn to have with selections and everything like that.
Brayden HeslehurstHOST
Just some of the other people.
Brayden HeslehurstHOST

Cameron GeorgeGUEST
So you've got to keep the wives and partners and kids really connected and busy to the club when the boys are away because we travel so much and And over here, we have a lot of people outside of Auckland that moved to Auckland.
Cameron GeorgeGUEST
So we've spent a lot of time and effort in making sure off the field that everyone is connected, communicated with and had this environment that's, you know, during the tough times is really solid and that's so important to us.
Cameron GeorgeGUEST
So there's a real good unit over here that works extensively close with all the families and friends to make sure Everyone's connected.
Cameron GeorgeGUEST

Corey ParkerHOST
Will, when you were first appointed the head coach of the Bullets, what was priority number one in your head that you thought, you know what, this is what I want to really implement ahead of the season?
Will WeaverGUEST
The biggest piece was getting the spirit of the group right and making sure that we were retaining and recruiting in a way that matched the everything that I've heard from every friend of mine on the boomers and friend of mine that I had the chance to coach in previous stops about what it meant to be a Queenslander, what it meant to be a part of the bullets, what were the bullets known for? Um, you can't be some sort of finesse bunch of pretty boys running around shooting three pointers and think that that's going to connect.
Will WeaverGUEST
And so the, uh, the, the, goal was to try to attract staff members players um and frankly sponsors and fans and everybody that are wired the same way
Ian HealyHOST
last championship was in 2007 before that 85 and 87 our last final was 2019 um but there's an air of optimism about uh this year even with the pain of the past
Will WeaverGUEST
I feel like what you've seen is basketball across the world has exploded.
Will WeaverGUEST
You look at what the Olympics and World Cup look like.
Will WeaverGUEST
My good friend Adam Caporn, the coach of the Boomers, he was the head coach of the AIS for years.
