    Taipans officially cooked

    Taj McCall gone now as well

    I thought I was watching Isaiah Thomas out there the amount of times McCall ended up on the floor after a drive or shot. Can’t doubt his effort but some of those drives were ill advised and not great for self-preservation!

    Your mob seriously need Shannon Scott to have a career night.

    After a hot start the Breakers hold a slim 2 point lead. It's gonna be a massive second half

    Does Mulligan make anyone else want to cut their ears off?

    We've built a solid lead going into the fourth quarter but Brantley has been ice cold. Right on cue he shoots a 3.

    I always liked Weeks as a Breaker. Not liking him right now...

    We need to stop settling for 3s and get some 2s. Our box out isn't as good it should be

    Brantley ice cold and McDowell White taking some bad options. And yet we lead by 17

    I only watched the 2nd half but that was a better effort. Good contributions from Rupert, Abercrombie and a cameo from Gliddon.

    Cam Glidden was John Preston level clutch. 2 touches in the 4th quarter netted 6 points

    The Wildcats “high powered offence - matador defence” finally caught up with them.

    It would’ve been a real shame if the Snakes didn’t get in. They have been in the top 4 sides all year and Perth’s streaky play is just that.

    The Breakers depth really came through today. Was an up and down game, but great to be able to run away with it. It’s a tough road trip to Tassie and I’d be nervous if we have to come back to Auckland in a must win game…

    beaten

    Cooks was huge. Sydney defense got very fucking physical, and we just couldn't score enough in the 2nd half.

    But i'm calling it, if we had Pinder and McCall we win that game.

    @mariner4life I saw the HT score and thought that your lot might be in. I bet whiner Buford wasn't complaining about the physicality this time.

    there was a lot of mouth from the blokes in purple.

    Cooks is lucky he's the MVP or he was definitely staring down his 2nd tech and an ejection (fuck off @voodoo you know it's true)

    Enjoyable game - Cooks doesn't belong in the NBL. Streaky shooting in the 1st half by the pimply kid kept Cairns in it, wasn't really as close as the scoreline looked...(ducks for cover)

    but yeah, Cooks is seriously good. Plays good D, very physical, and his effort is huge (box out Cairns FFS!!!). Maybe his shooting keeps him from the NBA?

    He, Cotton and Creek are definitely the 3 best players in the league, and by a margin. Cotton is too small to go any further though. I'm surprised Creek never made it back.

    He'd need to bulk up a fair bit I guess - that 83kg physicality won't go very far in the NBA! Seriously, how can he be 83kgs at 6'8???
