Correct, there’s a top 3 then the rest. We played alright tonight, just not good enough. Sydney, Perth, Melbourne easy top 3. Phoneix 4th, us, Brissy & NZ next.

Only way we can get better this year is to upgrade griffen and even Moore as well. Griffen so weak defensively and was more obvious being close to the courts tonight

I don't rate him and he would want to have a good game against SEM on Monday night or could find himself being released.

It looks like the decision by the NZ Breakers to sign Glen Rice Jr. who has a long wrap sheet during his pro career has backfired with Rice being arrested in Auckland for assaulting someone at a bar just 10 days after signing with the team. He's travelled with the team to Perth and is expected to play tomorrow.

Kings beat the Hawks 92-87 in Sydney in front of the biggest crowd in NBL history 17,514.

The signing of Randle was the biggest mistake. Management saw the dollar signs of bums on seats rather that an actual good team. He is such a liability on defense that he has to score heavily just to break even.

I'm not a big fan but I think he's already proven to be an upgrade on Deshon Taylor who is struggling in Sydney. I also think Randle has been trying to do well by getting his teammates involved and not trying to hog it too much but there were signs last game of him reverting back to that. He's not the biggest issue at the moment it's Griffin and he needs to really stand up tonight.

After the NBL stepped in and barred Glen Rice Jr from playing in yesterday's game in Perth now the NZ Breakers have suspended Rice indefinitely.

The New Zealand Breakers have suspended Glen Rice Junior indefinitely following an incident in Auckland during the early hours of last Thursday morning.

Mr Rice was arrested and charged with assaulted and is scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday.

Breakers owner Matt Walsh says new information has come to light since he last spoke about the incident on Saturday night.

The NBL can't be too thrilled with how Matt Walsh and the American consortium that bought the team are running things lately a complete shit show.

1000 times better than anyone else they ever have on there. Can’t stand that flog Matt Russell thats is usually on there

Best half of the season so far, see what we dish up in the 2nd half

[Gozu]

They should have Gaze doing virtually every game even Homicide becomes bareable alongside Gaze.
