NBL 2021 - 2022

god we suck. absolutely hosed by the Hawks last night. Goorjian has them humming. They have good imports (and their next star who is already on the books of Golden State), they are fit, and they work fucking hard. Guys all over who can shoot too (their 2nd half shooting from 3 was incredible).
Machado is trying too hard because he's surrounded by dross, and you can see only really trusts Oliver. And why not, when Cam Oliver is playing at MVP level at the moment, he's doing it all, shooting, dunking, rebounding, blocks, i'm very impressed.
The rest of the squad is fucked.
well, last season was a nice interlude in the usual life of a Taipans supporter.

Hawks looking good at both ends. I think they have the better of the Froling brothers, well the more workmanlike, not read his own press brother.
The backcourt complement each other, defensive ace in Justin Simon, a couple of good pieces with the two Sudanese boys, then Ogilvy and Naar to be good role players.

Perth blow a go ahead win layup at the end. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer team....
Phoenix win in Perth.
-
So the Breakers v Perth game was postponed because of 1 case. No it wasn’t a player or a coach or even a fan....
United beat Phoenix, but Scotty Hopson is in a massive form funk. Looks out of place and like he doesn’t know his role. On the other end of the scale is Shea. He’s playing the house down.

Covid changes continue
We were supposed to host Brisbane on Saturday, and the Breakers on Monday
That's now the Breakers on Saturday, and TBC for Monday

Fuck supporting this club sucks. 14 fucking years of this shitshow
-
A gutsy first win by the Breakers or another 4th Q choke by the Taipans? Perhaps a little of both, but hopefully Patterson is out of his funk.
I'm finding it hard to be enthused with this Mickey mouse schedule as I don't watch any other games.
Got the feel that Lamar was not going to let us lose that one. He made some big plays but also forced a bit too. The light blue is definitely not flattering for him...😉
Good to get a win even if it was against talented but poorly coached side!
-
@ACT-Crusader I don't know what the fuck Kelly is doing
-
@mariner4life Scotty M is a talented player but the over dribbling up the top is not going to win you games. Other than Cam, the other guys are just mainly standing and watching. Dumb offence
-
36ers getting towelled up by the Kings.

I got dragged away at the end of the 3rd quarter and couldn't see the Breakers winning. Cairns should have run away with it I reckon.

After a couple of those sets he was coming back yelling at the coaches. Clearly not happy.
-
Sloan has asked the 36ers for a release. That didn’t take long....

@canefan I find it so frustrating to watch NBL games, the officiating is majorily inconsistent, from one end of the court to the other and from game to game. It certainly helsp if you are on of the fancied aussie clubs!
The kiwi comms are increasingly happy to tell it like it is. If you are wearing a breakers uniform you aren't getting the calls! At least until its too late to matter
-
I only watched the 1st half but wasn't surprised by the final result. The Breakers were ice cold from the 3 pt line and missed so many layups.
@canefan We are getting Mulligan and Frank as comms so I don't think the Aussie comms will be so critical of the refs in these games. Usually the criticism is that the home team gets the calls. The problem for the Breakers is that they don't have any home games.

Oh yeah I'm sure the aussie comms weren't saying anything (I did say Kiwi comms....). We didn't help ourselves, Ty Webster is as much harm than help, CWeb was cold, and Tom has been sub par for some time. We just aren't a strong team right now. And we are getting hosed by the refs too
