NBL: Breakers and stuff
-
The disappointing thing is Melbourne are a bit shit. We were terrible last night, turned the ball over constantly, and yet the game was in doubt for ages.
And fuck Melo Trimble.
-
Vaughan Mayberry ref of the year is a fucking joke
-
How good was that last night.
Damn proud of our boys. Sure it was basically an NBL mixed team for the Boomers, but we were as well. When the Tall Blacks have 6 players in double figures and the likes of Te Rangi, Loe, Ngatai and Illi are dominating, it says a lot!
Pero got the boys humming with intensity on D and some smart offence that took advantage of mismatches.
It’s been a long 11 years, but hey not as long as Aussies have held the Bledisloe 😀
-
@ACT-Crusader but shit, come on, let's not kid ourselves about the opposition! With all players available we would lose by 30, 9 times out of 10.
-
@voodoo bro I don’t care if they put Crocodile Dundee in that green jersey, getting a win against the Boomers any time is to be celebrated. A very long time in between drinks and for some of our young guys, a bit of a winning feeling will give us a shot in the arm for the other two qualifiers.
-
@ACT-Crusader 😅 fairy nuff mate, let's celebrate 🥳🥳🥳
-
Tall Blacks that were missing that I’d have in my squad - Adams, Webster’s x2, Salt, Fotu, Finn, Abercrombie
-
Awesome win from the Snakes. Shut down Cotton who had a huge night on Friday.
Oliver has been an animal on the glass in the two games.

Fuck what a performance! The first qtr was as good an atmosphere as any sport event I have been to.
We should have won Friday (beaten by one of the best individual NBL games I have seen) and now I reckon we are favourites Thursday
Oliver has been massive. We won today without Machado having a big one.
-
Holy shit, and Melbourne break all sorts of records in absolutely destroying Sydney in game 2
It's very conceivable that it's 3rd v 4th in the finals.
-
Carn the Taipans!
Both game 3s tonight, first Sydney trying to turn around a record thumping in game 2. Then Cairns trying to go to Perth and win game 3.
I'm bullish about our chances to be honest, we've done nearly everything right in the first 2 games.
It's been a great season for the Club.
-
@mariner4life hope you beat Perth just to see Gleeson lose his shit

Jarrad Weeks has re-signed for the Breakers for the 2020-21 National Basketball League season. He joins Tom Abercrombie, Corey Webster, Finn Delany and Rob Loe as the fifth confirmed rostered player for NBL21.

Sydney beat Melbourne. Everything i have read, and i mean everything, is that the refs absolutely dudded them.
And the Taipans season ends with a 9-point loss. Perth were the better side from about the 3rd minute i reckon. White finally turned up, Kay was huge, Steindl hit his shots, and they just found enough guys to keep us at arms length.
We were shot, repeatedly in that 2nd half, but kept coming back, and when we had it back to a 5-pointer, we couldn't land the bucket to blow the game open, but Perth could.
DJ Newbill picked last night to have his worst game in a Taipans shirt. Oliver and Machado were both big, but not at the same time.
Great season, one i have really enjoyed. If we could keep this group together, we would be close to favourites next year. Unfortunately, that never happens up here, we'll get raided. And my heart will break.
-
@mariner4life very disappointed by DJ’s game. He wasn’t playing well and then decided it was “his time” and the close. And he hit nothing. Should’ve kept going to Oliver who Perth had no answer to.

@Bovidae he's managed by Jermaine Jackson?
I wonder how much an NBL franchise costs?
40 bucks
