Six teams for ABL

Official release in the news today is that 6 teams from Asean will be joining the inaugural ABL in September. The teams announced are Barracudas from Brunei, Kuala Lumpur Dragons, Philippine Patriots, Thailand Tigers and one of last season's match up Satria Muda BritAma from Indonesia and last but not least is your Singapore Slingers.

I do hope there is demand to watch these teams especially Brunei. Anyway top four teams will compete in the playoffs. This will be a long road ahead to emulate the NBA, hopefully more teams join to compete and expand this league into an Asian one and raises the standard overall.
