Breakers have missed two or three layups. I hope it doesn't cost us

[canefan]

McDowell White finds Brown who hits a huge 3. Breakers up 7 with 2:40 to play

[canefan]

McDowell White not satisfied with shooting from deep, drives in and gets a layup to give NZ a 9 point lead. Shit that was smooth, he's having some game

[canefan]

The clock is not a friend of the Kings. NZB lead by 9 with 1 minute to play. Sydney Kings fans leaving the arena. Fucken quitters

[canefan]

Breakers win, taking home court advantage. I'll be there on Sunday to see us try to dig Sydney's grave a little deeper

[Bovidae]

A great win in Sydney to continue the away team winning every game in this series.

McDowell-White had a huge game and just missed getting a triple double.

Players from both teams were cramping badly.

We need McDowell-White to fire. His last two games shooting, 2-7 (0-3 3pt) and 3-10 (0-5 3pt)

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.

[canefan]

It's a haka at Spark. Sydney can cook us some fucken eggs!

[canefan]

We are ice cold from the field. But swear to God the cheating from the refs is nek level

[Bovidae]

A low-scoring grind suits the Breakers. Brown Jr to take over in the 2nd half again.

They for away fast but our D has slowed them right down. As poorly as we shot only down by 4 is a tribute to our tough defence

[canefan]

Breakers are icy cold. Can't be buy a bucket right now

[Crucial]

Game has come to life for the Breakers but they may run out of time.
The Kings coach looks like he has modelled his look on the typical bad guy from an 80s movie

[ACT Crusader]

Man we have played so nervy. WMW having a stinker. Sydney playing the house down without Cooks and Walton Jnr

Simon is a defensive machine. Has such quick hands and anticipation.

[Bovidae]

A hard watch. I'd be happy if the away team continues to win out.

Nah, he's got the frat boy look.

We lost our way defensively and allowed Noi and DJ to get it going.

Not enough scoring though.

[nzzp]

Did well to get it back to 2 points after allowing the early run. Couldn't keep it up though- they scored at will at times, and we couldn't counter.

Going to be a cracking series!

[canefan]

Just got back. We gave ourselves a great chance going into half time. But our shots wouldn't fall, we turned it over a whole lot, and our defence went to pieces. After all that we came back and got within 10. But that was the worst team shooting display I've seen from the Breakers this season

That 3rd quarter was a shocker. Some shots were just unlucky in and outs, but a heap we forced and just lost the plot with any structure.

Would be nice if we could hit our free throws too. Although the Kings missed a bunch also.

Just a frustrating game especially in front of our crowd.
