Hawks vs Razors last night. Good writeup on OzHoops boards.
Razors 111, Hawks 106.
Horvath, new Pigs big man, had 27 and 15. Mackinnon 19 and 14. Markovic had 16. Reed was apparently a dud (DJ -- why dump Truslove instead of Reed in SAHFBL??), MacGregor 10, 9 and 6. Trahair had 25, 7 and 5 (woohoo!). Dwight was apparently a bit rubbish and fouled out (5 fouls in first quarter!).
Caporn 14, Rice 17 and 10 (struggled against Horvath), Saville 19 and 8, Mee 19 and 6, Rigby (looked ordinary -- uh oh!), Pilon didn't get much time, Campbell had 14, Kelly had 9, Ballinger (new Hawks import) had 10 and 7.
I wonder how the Pigs got Horvath on the cheap? Would've been a good pick-up for Adelaide pre Cooper/Rees!
General feeling seems to be that the Hawks are the most likely to miss the play-offs this season.
Kings beat the Pirates last night in Newcastle, 84-76 or so. Smith was bad, Kendall OK, Wheeler didn't play, Pirates were strong on the boards, Morgan and Davidson were good for Hunter. Suggestion was made that Hunter will be strong in the middle against most opponents.
