Sydney has barely noticed the Kings are back in the Australian basketball league finals for the first time in five years.
There is not even a mention of game two of the semi-final series between the Kings and the Breakers in today's Sydney Morning Herald, while the playoff only rates a small mention at the back of the sport section in the Daily Telegraph, behind rugby league, football, rugby union, racing, Aussie Rules and netball.
To make matters worse, the venue for this afternoon's game, the Sydney Entertainment Centre, doesnâ t even advertise the playoff on any of its billboards.
It is clear the NBL still has a long way to go to win back recognition in Australia's biggest city.
