Does anyone care about this game?

..over the line - damn auto correct!

Tornado, probably not! A few weeks ago, this game looked like it would be the one to watch

Perhaps they are playing for the Fat Rat Clackers Cup

Undermanned, hell, we were undermanned, undertalented from the start of the season, but I'm still proud of how my guys have fought hard even when the chips were down... I'll walk away proud again if we can show Melbourne what a really United team looks like, even if it's a loss...

Playing for next seasons contracts will hopefully only be on the mind of the UnUnited players, even though I'm hoping that at least half the Kings team aren't coming back next season...

The team has some tough calls to make, and hopefully won't make the same mistake of prematurely taking up any options if they have them, especially with Duinker...

Time for Perry to pull his finger out, hopefully Brandt is getting fitter by the day and will be able to cause some havoc... Hopefully Red Mamba is let off his chain and Cody gets another well deserved start and some significant minutes...

Tipped Kings home and away due to the mental disintegration that Melbourne have self-inflicted.

Two weeks ago these were not just penciled in, not just inked in, but formally engraved in latin as Melbourne wins.

Funny how fast things can change.

I hope you guys are right, and that the stronger TEAM will win, I just think that even as big a mental case as they are, Inited still have too many weapons... just hope they misfire and the crowd can really lift and give the guys the support they deserve...

Double Header Kings Vs Divided on Channel 10/One this weekend....... I didn't know the special olympics was on ?

I did like how the NBL called this the 'Capital City Clash!'. Then I guess they realised Adelaide and Perth both had teams.

Should call it Capital Punishment

Kings starting with Joyce, Cadee and Perry. Very small line up. Cant understand why Ellis is not getting a start. McCrae should have a field day out there.

Kings started Cadee and Joyce. Cadee had 16 and Joyce 15. Melbourne barely won and McRae went 3/14 FG. Joyce played 39:24!

Oh boy.

Walker had 15 in 16 minutes which is decent.

But in anything other than the real scoreline, that's a loss for Melbourne.

The bits I saw on NBL.TV were terrible, from both teams!

Oy vey.

The Kings executed the play out of their last time out perfectly, Brandt just couldn't finish. Great watching that footage translate into action.

Dennis only getting 14 minutes and coming off the bench again......Is this a reflection that he is a major part of the problems with United this year or am I reading too much into it. Either way doubt we will see him back next season.

"The Kings executed the play out of their last time out perfectly, Brandt just couldn't finish. Great watching that footage translate into action".

Wasn't it Garlepp who missed the shot after they showed the time out?

I thought he went low to Brandt, but you might be right. I was just impressed it was run as drawn up, particularly to that point.

Really disappointed for my guys tonight... worked their BUTTS off and to have some really bad calls go against them late (and brain farts when NOT closing out on one of the leagues best outside shooters), even some poor FT shooting, was the difference...

Hate the loss, but by only 3pts when the other team is so stacked and we were missing so many players, it could have been a LOT worse...

The bits I saw on NBL.TV were terrible, from both teams!

Terrible game but did people really expect anything else when the Kings have looked ordinary all season aside from a few standout performances by Childress and the Unitards have been nothing short of disgraceful in their past few games.

What was really terrible is that we were forced to watch this crap on FTA while a better game was being played in Adelaide.

& no Anon #674, there is no greater waste of air than Rosen as a commentator. I always disliked Reid for the same reason... incessant drivel and talking things up to the point of cheerleading but Rosen has taken this to nauseating new heights. Let's hope that his career is terminated when the TV rights move from TEN.

"It was, by far, the worst game of basketball I've ever seen"

Must have missed Perth v Townsville, 25 January 2013. At least Sydney and Melbourne managed to shoot above 35%, both teams scored more than 62 points and the refs managed to call some fouls. That Perth-Townsville mockery of basketball was a tv game too.

Your wife sounds quite smart but I think mine is smarter - she slept through the game.
