Every year at this time there appear in Newspapers all over the world (except, perhaps, in the USA where there is apparently no such thing as a newspaper anymore) end of year wrap-ups and predictions for the coming year. What are your favorites?

I'll go first:
"The AGE" (Melbourne Victoria Australia)
(Reviewing the last decade in Australian Basketball)
The Highs:
Liz Cambage took women's basketball to new heights in London in 2010, when she became the first woman to dunk at the Olympics. Australian basketballers made plenty of waves in the decade but Cambage's one-hand throwdown against Russia will forever live in sporting history.
Crystal Ball: Ben Simmons takes on Josh Green in the NBA Finals
Could Australia have both superstars in an NBA finals series in 2030 or before? The decade ahead is all set for Simmons to thrive and his mentors like LeBron James believe he could become one of the greats while Green is starring at University of Arizona this season and shapes as a high draft pick in 2020. It's too soon to know but dare we dream of two Aussies starring on the NBA's biggest stage?
