If Kings are starting to gel - Kings by at least 10.
But after seeing the Tassie game not quite sure if they're there yet.
Still early days for them.

Unless Brisbane get the same help from referees as they did against Breakers they could be on a hiding. Sydney just better man for man. Kings by 10+

I don't know that losing Baynes hurts them on the court. More minutes for Harrison and Rocco maybe not the worst thing.

As sad as it is to say, Harrison/Rocco > Baynes.
This isn't a big loss for Brisbane.

It was strange how Brisbane got the away cooking in NZ, it helped them win for sure. Brisbane are certainly competitive this season and I think Harrison has been great, unfortunately so has Hunter and the kings are just starting to warm up. Kings to deep in what should be a good game.

Harrison has been playing well so should plug the hole reasonably well. Will be good to see how Rocco goes given more playing time.

I think this should be a competitive game, Sydney should still be able to grind out a win though.

A bit like touch football, no defence by either side.

Does Rocco still go to highschool? What's the go with that?
Blows my mind he’s only 17 - not 18 till mid next year.

Kings just rolling, they will end up actually better than last season, again Smith for all the haters gets it done.
Top four in no order already kings, united, cats, JJs, the rest making up numbers.

Last year
Kings getting excited, kings moving the ball well, bullets move the ball to Sobey. Copeland saying no defence being played, Norton been a good pick up for Brisbane.

Bullets, Hawks and 36ers are absolutely embarrassing
A league is only as strong as its weakest teams.
The NBL is not in a good position when you look at these teams.
They are abysmal.

Last year
Kings got a good coach here. They are rolling. Still got Hogg to come in.

Nice fight back in the last quarter by bullets, but never in doubt. Gaze with Copeland are fine on commentary, actually Gaze and Gleeson are good with anyone, it's when they are not there it falls away.

Pretty sure Rocco doesn't actually attend a high school, but completes secondary studies externally when he’s not training.

Bullets better than last season. Sobey looking back to form after injuries the last 2 seasons. Need to defend and another guy to step up next to him though.

Bullets definitely better and never quit last night. They are headed in the right direction but it's going to take some time.
I like what Valentine brings overall for the Kings and he feels like a good locker room guy who doesn't play selfishly on the court despite his NBA creds... however, he's had some of the worst backcourt and transition turnovers I've ever seen from a professional, let alone an ex-NBA guy. I feel like I need to cover my eyes any time he is bringing the ball up the court with even token pressure.

Brisbane won't finish in the top six when Sobey is more invested in his own scoring rather than wins for his team. was the same in Adelaide when fighting for the ball with Jerome Randall. notice how he doesn't look disappointed after a loss when he has a good scoring game . its all about Sobey !!!
