    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!

      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.

          WMW had a shocker, all of our guards were needlessly careless with the ball up top which allowed Sydney to get easy breakaway baskets. I just wonder if they were too overeager early, and never really settled offensively

            @canefan chasing the game for basically 3 quarters we finally hit our groove in the 4th. It was a huge 4th, one of our best of the season in terms of scoring. But we let them off the hook too many times.

                Hopefully he decides not to risk his body and shuts it down for the rest of the series....

                  Cooks to the Wizards almost guarantees Pinder to the Kings

                  Fucks me off. We took a tall skinny guy that even Adelaide fans didn't mind losing, and turned him in to an MVP candidate and fucking sydney will get the benefits.

                  Being a feeder team for Sydney and Melbourne fucking sucks.

                            Game 3 turning into a blood bath. Sydney doing whatever they want on offense, Breakers in major foul trouble and dying behind the 3 point line. Offense is static. Gonna be last stand at Spark on Sunday

                              @canefan the back end of the 3rd killed us. Then the 4th was a write off.

                              We need at least two players to score 16+ and we win pretty much every time. Tonight no one really fired. Pretty sad when your top scorer only had 11 points.

                              We need more out of Pardon.

                              Our offence looked a million bucks at times but then went into this iso ghetto ball. Our defence then went to custard

                                Totally inconsistent. I think Sydney has lifted their defensive game too. Our pick and roll motion offense is the way to go but we aren't using it enough

                                  I switched over to the rugby halfway through the 3rd quarter. Abercrombie is offering nothing on offence, and I believe that Rupert is being underplayed.

                                  I suppose you can look at the positive and say it's only 2-1 and has gone with home court (so to speak) so all to play for in game 4. BUT the Breakers need to find their defensive and offensive mojo quick.

                                    I switched over to the rugby halfway through the 3rd quarter. Abercrombie is offering nothing on offence, and I believe that Rupert is being underplayed.

                                    I suppose you can look at the positive and say it's only 2-1 and has gone with home court (so to speak) so all to play for in game 4. BUT the Breakers need to find their defensive and offensive mojo quick.

                                    Rupert made a nice then got hooked. The guy will be an NBA draft player in a couple of months, surely he has more to give than a bunch of the others. But the iso ball is the main problem, it is killing us

                                      And we go to game 5.

                                      Brantley, Brown Jr and Abercrombie's D came up big in the 4th.

                                      Atrocious FT shooting though.

                                        And WMW. Awesome defensive intensity and better offensive execution. Still worry our offense stuttered early in the 4th

                                          With three players scoring 16+ we rarely if sever lose. Loved Brantley’s game tonight really took it at Cooks and didn’t just settle. Even when Sydney got a roll on we kept our nerve. Just wished we hit our FTs more consistently
