As the Indian Panthers saga draws to a sad close, questions are being raised as to who should be held accountable for this failure. Henry Moore is the head of the Sports Law practice at law firm Tavendale and Partners, and he joined Piney to discuss what potential legal ramifications for the Panters and the NZNBL. He told Piney that realistically, the consequences are more likely to be reputational as opposed to legal. “The leagues credibility is obviously now under question, and that's one of the biggest challenges for the sport, I think.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On the Weekend Sport with Jason Pine Full Show Podcast for 3rd March 2025, the sorry saga of the Indian Panthers reached a climax this week with a player's strike and the team being suspended from the NBL indefinitely.

The debut of the Indian Panthers from the men's NBL was always going to be a disaster, according to long-time basketball coach Jeff Green. The Panthers have been suspended indefinitely after allegations emerged around delayed player payments and treatment. Green told Jason Pine it was a tough ask to come in at a late stage with no real ties to this country, and to be any chance of surviving, it needed to be planned carefully. He also has suspicions it was a trans-Tasman back-door listing attempt. Green told Piney the ill-fated Indian Panthers may have been a Trojan horse to enter the other NBL. Green says he's basing his allegations on the fact all the Panthers owners are based in Australia. "You can assume that they were doing similar things to what the Tasmanian Huskies did early on a few years ago when they entered the New Zealand NBL, and then they left and became the Tasmanian Jack Jumpers in the Australian NBL.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Basketball New Zealand has punched itself in the face. Broke its own nose, and is trying to tell us it walked into a door. The barely believable antics of not only the week just gone, but the entire season, and if players I've spoken to are to be believed, the pre-season, leads me to think that they are the architects of their own humiliation. The Indian Panthers were suspended this week after a series of stumbles which eventually lead to them falling over their own feet, leaving themselves prone on the court floor. Yes, the Panthers has been a problem child, yes, they've failed to deliver on court, yes, they've treated their staff both on court and off with disdain bordering on exploitation, yes they've dragged a wonderful competition into the swamp with them, but no, the blame should not lie solely at their Air Jordaned feet. Claims from the commission chair Tracey Garland that “careful due diligence” was applied before their inclusion in the league are difficult to swallow. I did some retrospective diligence. A quick skim of the internet around the history of the parties involved with the Panthers (yeah, I'm like an antivaxxer – I did my own research) points to clumsy management and financial chaos. More red flags than a wealthy, good looking hit on Tinder. Sal's NBL, NZ Basketball, whoever holds ultimate responsibility for this circus needs to stand up and tell us who opened the door and let these 20 clowns jammed into a tiny car in. They can finger point and obfuscate all they want. The Indian Panthers management are a fast talking, blame laying excuse factory, but if they weren't in the league, this wouldn't have happened. Fess up BBNZ, this is a monster you let in, own it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An unshakable insistence from Indian Panthers boss Parveen Batish that their indefinite ban from the National Basketball League won't be permanent. The first year team were handed an immediate ban mid-season following serious allegations of payment issues and player unrest. The Panthers can return to the NBL if they meet various conditions set by the league's commission. When asked if has been asked if their catalogue of off court issues have been sorted, Batish told Mike Hosking they're 100% sorted. He says when they come back they're going to be much stronger, as the positivity around what they can do and deliver is enormous. Newstalk ZB understands the other 11 NBL teams were unanimous in revoking the Panthers league license. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Indian Panthers are out of the NBL basketball competition for the foreseeable future.

Optimism from the Indian Panthers' boss that his club will be able to return to the NBL this season. The Panthers have been handed an immediate and indefinite suspension from the basketball league - amid serious allegations of payment issues and poor treatment of players.

NBL basketball officials say they're considering options regarding the future of the Indian Panthers after meetings involving all 12 clubs today. In a statement, the league says they were made aware last Friday of delayed payments to players, before meeting with Panthers ownership on Monday. The league was informed yesterday that players had been paid - and told plans were in place for the Rams game to proceed, before players elected not to take to the court. Panthers CEO Parveen Batish admits players were being short-changed, but says he'd solved the matter before the game. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sports historian Josh Elias stops by for a deep unraveling of the often misunderstood story behind the 1949 merger that created the National Basketball Association (NBA) as we know it today.  Drawing from his historically essential 2024 book The Birth of the Modern NBA: Pro Basketball in the Year of the Merger, 1949-1950, Elias takes us back to the pivotal moment when the Basketball Association of America (BAA) and the National Basketball League (NBL) merged, uniting disparate big-city teams with small-town clubs - and setting the stage for professional basketball's future in the US. We dive into the tensions between East Coast metropolises and Midwestern industrial towns; the unexpected power struggles between the last BAA champion (and superstar George Mikan-led) Minneapolis Lakers and the final NBL winning Anderson (Indiana) Packers; and the NBA's early challenges with segregation, cultural divides, and an uncertain post-WWII American economy. Elias also shares some of the wildest and most fascinating anecdotes from his research, including mob-connected team owners, bizarre halftime performances, airport mishaps, and brushes with history-making figures like Jackie Robinson, Chuck Connors, and even a young pre-politics Gerald R. Ford. Step back in time to revisit the NBA's chaotic, colorful, and often overlooked first season - one that shaped the league for generations to come.  + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats 417 Helmets (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://417helmets.com/?wpam_id=3 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): "The Birth of the Modern NBA: Pro Basketball in the Year of the Merger, 1949-1950" : https://amzn.to/41PRnx6 FIND AND FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/
