The home team has won every game in the SF series.
For the last couple of seasons I have lacked any interest with the Breakers stuck in Aust, so it is good to see a crowd at Spark Arena again. Stupid that we have to wait for a FIBA window before playing the final.

I wondered why there was such a delay!! That's a long break, all our players are fit and raring to go.

up and down weekend for the Taipans
Friday night a big win over the Kings to force Game 3. Brilliant night at the Convention Centre, full house and loud. Plenty of on-court shit to keep us entertained.
Of course the NBL makes sure their biggest market is protected as two Kings escape suspension.
Then yesterday we limp out, as the toll of 5 games in 11 days, with a severely reduced roster takes its toll. To push the Kings all the way without Pinder, without McCall for G1, Scott for games 2 and 3, and McCall playing but against doctors orders was a fucking huge effort.
I now fucking hate the Kings, just a cavalcade of flogs. I hope the Breakers stuff them. I won't be watching though.
See ya next year.

Was great to see Barry Brown catch on fire and deliver in a big game. He had an amazing start and middle of the season but I thought he had gone a bit quiet and shied away from clutch time.
Pardon and Loe were massive too. Loe got 8 boards and 5 of those offensive. We will need him against the likes of Soares.
I think we match up well against the Kings. We will throw Brantley and Abercrombie at Cooks. Le’Afa will step up D on Walton Jnr.
We need McDowell-White to fire. His last two games shooting, 2-7 (0-3 3pt) and 3-10 (0-5 3pt)

Anyone followin this enough to give those of us that only take notice at the pointy end a rundown?
What's the chances?Sydney are favourites but the Breakers are a good chance. It will probably come down to how the games are refereed, and whether the Kings get their preferential treatment.
This was on the TV news last night. A cool story.

Big time game from WMW, 19/9/9. And ran the show superbly.
Kings are a good side. They know how to make runs. But man I was impressed with our composure to hit a big shot and make a play defensively when we needed it.
Brantley and Brown Jnr were big.
Loe continues to make really good contributions especially on the glass.
Abercrombie did a defensive number on Cooks. Tommy has the length and still has a bit of bounce in those old legs to trouble Cooks.
When we want to we can play some of the best team basketball in the league.
Now we go home and need to take care of business.
