Blaze $1.37, Taipans $3.10. Line is -6 favouring the Blaze.
Adelaide are going to be hoping that the Blaze beat Cairns up a bit...
Is $3.10 a touch long or are the Taipans that bad on the road?

Id say its a touch long....but Im still pretty confident we will get up.
Have to improve dramatically on the boards - having Petrie back will no doubt help on that one but Vandy is the key. He really needs to stand up and stop playing like Melmeth!
Harvey also needs to put a full game together. he has done Ok to date but he seems to put on 10 points in a couple of minutes then drift out of the game. He also needs to have more plays run for him and have some decent screens set.
Blaze by 9, 91 - 82

The only NBL coverage i've seen in the sydney media of late was today in the sydney morning herald stating that these odds were the best of the weekend, this sort of thing is generally only said about horses or scoreline bets in any of the football codes. I reckon the NBL should put every penny it owns on this game, get in the ref's ear, possibly try to give GC food poisoning and if they still win, deduct the points for some minor technicality.

The Balze have a couple of nice imports.
Ubaka is quick and seems to understand his role and not try to do too much.
Maxey good all round player, 20 and 10 player that all teams have to have.
The Blaze have that small mobile look that will trouble a lot of teams provided they can hit from outside regularly.
They probably don't have enough firepower in the paint to foot it with the heavyweights, Breakers and Perth but they will be nuisance value and give their home fans a good sight.
