Kings retain Robilliard as coach

Blame the coach if they lose, but its just the players playing for a contract if they win? I don't buy that. I agree it doesn't prove Moose is an NBL level coach, but if the team are only playing well because they are playing for a contract, then the Sixers should get on to some of that. All a person can do is hope to meet/exceed expectations.

In my view, Sydney has of late deserved the extraordinary number of games they have enjoyed on One/Sky. In general, those games have been quite entertaining to watch.

Just watched them against NZ & they were great. Unlucky to lose! credit where credit is due - well done Moose. Great ball movement & whole game stuffed up by bad decision at end. Dickel is not my favorite player but that was not unsporstmanlike...

Give him credit..He doesn't have, IMO, the understanding of the X's and O's to the level of other pro-coaches. But he has done a maginificant job in installing belief and hustle into the Kings playing group.

And honestly, 36er fans aren't really in a position to comment...Clarke has been outcoached in most scenarios throughout the season.
A few weeks ago, Moose outcoached him by playing a zone which Clarke had no real answer for.

I find it interesting to compare the season of the Kings with that of the Sixers.
They are almost the exact opposite of each other with the Kings clueless early but finishing very strong and the Sixers, after a respectable start, having the wheels fall completely off their little blue wagon.
Tactically, I’m not convinced Moose can coach at NBL level, but something has obviously happened within the playing group. Chemistry, belief and hunger for the contest. The Kings are a great example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Something the Sixers have been unable to achieve in recent seasons.

I can't say I am surprised. I think he has met or exceeded all objective expectations given that he started the season with the Big Sneeze, and a bunch of ABA players and returned college kids, and two highly underperforming imports. No-one in their right minds would have predicted much better results for this club, which is now on a 7-10 win streak.
