    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.

          A good 1st quarter from the Breakers. Cooks is already getting the calls from the refs.

            Both teams starting to get really tight. Love it that Brown takes it to the rim in this instance

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

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

                  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

                    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

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

                        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.

                          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)

                          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.

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

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

                                  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

                                      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

                                        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.

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