Taipans Vs Breakers
Teams still giving Vukona the open mid range jump shot which he has no problem knocking down in rhythm and Hudson was much better on Trigger than Pledger. Breakers continue to rebound well but still turning the ball over far too much. Still plenty to improve on and they are still winning games.

Steindl quiet with a doughnut and not much from Brad Hill. The Cairns fans were vocal to the end despite being out of the game for the most part.

Taipans held to just 54 points and the Breakers completing the double.
Jackson would have helped a few fantasy teams out with his numbers.

Haha oh Pledger, not his night is it? He's in my fantasy team so that's shit, at least I forgot to get in before lockout. I've forgotten the last 3 weeks of fantasy :/
But seriously, the Breakers are a championship calibre team again. I was a bit hesitant to rate them, but they are up there again.

Jackson having his way and Pledger having a frustrating night with foul trouble. NZ still having issues with turnovers

I rekon the Breakers will just hold us at bay. Jackson is getting too much freedom and i can't see that changing, we have no real pressure ball defenders.

these two teams have a history of slugging it out and and going down to the wire so I wouldn't discount this going to OT.
Guys like Boucher and CJ will not be as effective second time round but hopefully Corletto can continue some of his shooting form from last night along with Abercrombie. I'm hoping NZ by 7.

Who can possibly predict an overtime game haha?
Taips by a half dozen hopefully.



Although they are equal top, the Breakers are no shoe in for this one.
Cairns are playing some great basketball at the moment. Their losses have been to a rampaging 'Gong team, a lucky Sixers team and a narrow one to the Madgen Machine.
All their wins have been double figures and Jamar Wilson has been in the thick of it. Tragagh is on fire and Brad Hill is playing some of his bet basketball since he moved to Cairns. (I guess he's now used to winning)
Breakers have Cedric "the Dragon Slayer" Jackson who is navigating a course to NBL MVP. Vukona, Pledger, Abercrombie are all good consistent performers. Their offence is getting better each game so a score in the 80's is likely.
Reckon this could be the game of the round. If Cairns are going to beat them this season, this is the game.
