    @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.

        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

                Brantley definitely had his swagger on. Game of the series for him. The Kings pack the paint which has neutralised Pardon so far. But it was the physical D from Brantley and Abercrombie that unsettled Cooks and Walton respectively, that spoiled Sydney's rhythm

                      Chase Buford is a fucken sook. Biggest budget, league darlings, refs finally give us a fair shake and we force G5, boo fucken hoo. Cooks is a little whiny bitch as well. He better get used to getting no calls when he gets to the NBA

                          Chase Buford is great for the game though. Helps with the emotional connection to have a ‘villain’ to cheer against and want to beat. It also keeps non-Breakers fans engaged in it because they will want to see Sydney beat too 😎

                              @canefan Gleeson is still the worst for me. Although I can’t stand Vickerman as he is one of the biggest in-game complainers I’ve ever seen in my life watching and playing hoops.

                                Vickerman has a Kiwi connection so I have no problem with him. Apart from coaching the Breakers, he also coached the Waikato Pistons when I used to go to their games.

                                      Goulding has gotten better with time. When he played for that Gold Coast team he was a little punk.

                                      He’s actually a good dude. Got to meet him a few times.

                                          Boys, I’m more nervous than watching the ABs in a RWC semi against France. Man the intensity and atmosphere is crazy.

                                          We look good early. Brown Jnr looks zeroed in
