Breakers vs Hawks, Oct 10
Johnson was great, pushed the ball and found his team mates and will only get better as the season progresses. He has a decent looking jumpshot despite it not falling for him and got to the rim for a few layups in transition.
Webster continued his Tall Blacks form offensively and Abercrombie found his stride at both ends with a couple of dunks and 3's and a couple of blocks and a steal.
Rotnei Clark for the Hawks was good, couldn't do it alone tho.
Tyson Demos got a spray from Gordie and got owned by Abercrombie, the Hawks really missed having Sav defensively with Abercrombie able to shoot over them.


Hawks from memory were pretty good in the pre-season in regards to fouls?
They had guys in foul trouble at half time and Gordie had to resort to the young guys. Jamieson with a great block on Kerron Johnson but then a couple of plays later had his jumper swatted away by Pledger.

Funnily enough, they have a preview, its just not linked to on their match centre. Sigh, NBL...

great! Cant follow the NBL because they cant be normal and just use FIBA live stats! Can anyone of you hoopsters give us a box score estimate!!

NBL haven't started up stats, although there's a match preview coming soon, Must be tooo busy with NBLTV to bother about it.


live stats link please!! NBL website won't let me click on the live stats link!!!! HELP


Breakers running the ball as much as possible with Kerron at the point and he looks kinda like Gary Ervin when he's going to the rim

Rotnei Clark looks very good. Corletto and Vukona good offensively for NZ.
A lot of fouls being called.

Breaker's to win the 1 at hm end of the day they are the 3peat champs u cant go past that!

Think Hawks will get up.
NZ still trying to find their identity. They can't be the physical defensive side they have in the past so will have to get more from their offense than in past times.
Could still be a few games more worth of adjusting.
Theyl be a top 4 side IMO.
But i wouldn't expect anything less from such a skillful coach as Gordie than to bring a team into Vector and have them exceptionally organised, prepared and ready.
Hawks by 6.
