The discussion turns to how impressed Scott has been with the coaching moves of Joey Wright, the defensive growth of Jerome Randle and the punch coming off the bench now for this 36ers team.

It's then time for the special interview of the week and it's 508-game, four-time NBL championship winning big man Paul Rees. Three of those titles and 262 of the matches were with the Adelaide 36ers and it's quite a treat to hear him catch up and reminisce with his old teammate.
