NBL thoughts so far

I would say with absolute certainty we won't see a repeat of the 12/13 only two teams with a %age over .500

^ Well that's not really the case, the shooting percentages are well up, across the board and the FTs are not actually that far up, except that we've had more close games which tends to lead to intentional fouls and free throws.

Possible Breaker Aces: Kirk Penney and/or Cedric Jackson.

The return of those two players would have Atlas Place dusting off the "Full House" signs for sure.

Next season I would not be surprised to see Penney back for his swansong.

A poor turnout and/or a loss at Vector will have some enormous alarm bells going off at Breakers HQ, but I'm not sure, after Lazare->Wilko, what other possible aces they could pull out.

the game is at Vector so having a big crowd (if after these losses the band wagon fans still give a shit) behind them will def get Wilkinson & Corletto going.
NZ's defense is pretty atrocious at best especially in transition so I'd prob be penciling in another W for Adelaide in Auckland at this stage.
I'm happy to be wrong but they (NZ) haven't shown enough week to week improvement for me to see a Breakers victory against a potential playoff team yet.
