HSH, Day 1 Game 3: Fleet vs Rush
Really Tripod? I didn't know that, was just going by the commentators, who said NZ really like him and are expecting big things! Oh well, guess the commentary team got it wrong AGAIN!

That Fleet team was fun to watch. Nice to see a team that plays smart and hustles so hard on defence.
Jackson didn't show much offensively, but he was in everything on the defensive end. Don't know if stats are available anywhere, but he must have had a lot of steals and deflections!
Riley Luettgerodt looked like a real smart player, outworking opponents on both ends of the floor. Made me think of a mini Ricketts. Didn't show much range though, so that might count against him for an NBL spot.
Chris Goulding: another smart player with good court vision, he can flat out score and worked really hard defensively, rebounding very well against bigger opponents. You can come play for the Sixers anytime you want Chris! ;-)
Luke gave the Fleet a massive advantage inside. The Rush got back into the game when the Fleet went away from the big fella in the third quarter. I still get frustrated with how often Luke gets muscled out of position, but he should still be a dominant NBL big man for years to come if he stays in Oz.
Trueman: the Breakers have a real solid young big there. Held the fort pretty well when Luke got in foul trouble.
Nice to see Will Farley still has game as well.

awesome game. just caught the last quarter at home. cant wait for tomorrows fleet vs monarchs
