How the 36ers can beat the Kings
Maybe "obvious", but would be good if we could execute also.
Simspon will surely outscore Weigh. When he gets similar minutes and looks he does a lot more with the ball.

Drive to the bucket against Khazzouh for starters, get him in foul trouble early and he has to sit a fair portion of the 1st half, then repeat in the 3rd. And don't give him or Grant any easy strolls to the basket or leave them unguarded under the bucket and don't give Bruce too many easy 3's because if he lights up from outside we could be in trouble.
Our offence is pretty good for the most part so its just stopping them on the defensive end of the court.
Will it come down to which coach fouls up their own teams works more? One thing, Adelaide don't play too badly away from home. We've done over the Wildcats twice and were ok and competitive against NZ and Wollongong respectively so I personally think the 36ers are in with a pretty good chance. Sydney are 2-3 at home so their record at the Kingdome isn't flash.
I think this weekend we will go at least 1-1. If we win on Friday night it might give the boys the confidence to knock off the Breakers at home on Sunday. If we lose to the Kings.....

" We play better defense when we can see the opposition in front of us. " I heard Ballinger say.
Ya know we got too far forward against Gold Coast and they gotta round the back of it.
If the Kings give Ballinger the three , he'll be loading up for target practice and throwing up the bull's-eye , the way he shoots at training.

How about "actually hitting 3pt shots". The percentages we had in both games was rather lackluster and needs to go up.
Seriously, the team has to collectively hit a good 40% per game for it to be even worth it. That's providing they don't shoot more than 30 of them per game.
Forcey, I read your blog and you're pointing out the obvious. Unfortunately I can guarantee that the two primary scorers from tip-off will be DJ and Weigh, rather than DJ and Simpson.

They hawks are close to signing Franklin just waiting on the approval of the nbl according to the illawarra mercury.
