Melbourne v Taipans 3/12
Changed starting lineup for the Taipans, looks like an interesting game (1 min left in Q1)

His drives when he just throws it up I should clarify.

Taipans score 67 in the first half against United, oh my. Miller, 21 points against Illi and Deladova.

This is well and truly Cairns to lose. Will the Taipans keep up the pressure or will they go braindead and Goulding hits multiple 3s in the 4th?

This is coming from someone that used to absolutely love Delly. But he's so bad now and United are better without him.

JLA -30 and Hukaporti + 20 while on the floor. A deserved win for taipans, unspectacular game and so many fouls.

71 Free throws LOL
Entertainment apparently.
The NBL is absolutely destroying its own product and it does not even know it.
There is a reason why it does not even make the top 20 watched shows on TV

But you wouldn't know if it was entertaining as you didn't watch it Jacket.
You were very quiet on Friday

Hry Jacket,
Tell me more about the Perth vs Sydney game on Friday
Perth made 7 3-pointers, Sydney made 19.
Who won?
Oh, and this boring game had 66 free throws.
Yup

Really nice win for Taipan's, hopefully they can continue to get that type of production from Roberts.
Lacklustre effort from Melbourne, probably due and not concerned

Interesting thing to watch going forward this season with Cairns is going to be the balance of finding mins for Waardenburg/Mayen/Mennenga/Armstrong vs leaning on the import trio to get wins. The big sell for Cairns with their recruitment strategy has been mins and opportunities for young Aussies/Kiwis, but that's going to make for a difficult balancing act if Forde sticks with this rotation based on the results of this game (if Roberts' play lately isn't just a flash in the pan, anyway).

Hoping this game washes away some of the stench of last round (Perf/Sydney excepted).
