NZ are without Hudson.

Damn, the Cairns play some great defence. Fearne is a bloody good defensive coach.

But watching their offence is pain-staking mostly.

Cairns play some great Defence???

Are we watching the same game?

Dropped Bruce for Williams. Bad move IMO, Bruce was a star against gongers last Sunday.

Someone wanna tell Loughton to stop shooting more threes than your two shooters Gliddon and Steindl combined?

We were way too good, but interestingly we had 5 less shots. Cedric is NBA ready, if it wasn't already apparent, 11/13- what a show! For however good Fearne is meant to be defensively, his scouting is questionable, why not follow Hammer's lead and play him just like the Kings did!

Nonetheless, when we lose, watch out if we play you next because the three teams- Townsville, Melbourne and Cairns have been slaughtered!

By "him" I mean Cedric Jackson!

congratulations to NBL TV for fucking it all up

Did anyone else have a problem with NBL TV today. I couldn't get it to work on either of my lap tops or my Tablet? I could only get it to work on my I phone. Better be working for our game against your sixers. Crocs in an upset.

Marcus Camby, there were playing great defence until Ced got going!

But seriously, they are the best defensive team in the NBL. Tonight, they just had no defensive answer for Ced.

Their offence is just terrible though. The execution and timing just isn't there. Jamar usually has to take over and run an on-ball late in the shot clock because they don't have another guard that create their own shot (Steindl is a classic example, as is Gliddon and Edwards and how could I forget Grabau and Hill, might as well chuck in Williams as well).

Hill can create for himself.

How hard would it be for Loughton or Trigger to set some screens to open the shooters up? At the moment they are expected to catch and shoot or catch, dribble to clear room then shoot. No wonder Hill, Gliddon and Steindl can't get an open shot up

Snake coach gotta go.

Expected the Taipans to do a little better than a drubbing.

I think Abercrombie's double-figure games have come only against Melbourne and Townsville. Is he not at full health yet? Not being used enough?

NBL TV response:

Last night's issue was resolved by Akamai today & should no longer affect services - underlying cause under investigation. Apologies to all

Isaac, Hill is averaging 5.3 FG attempts per game this season and 1.6 assists.

That's hardly creating his own shot.

He struggles to even handle the ball.
