R3 Hawks vs Breakers
Waste of money for Wollongong having 5 bigs in my opinion - the money could be better distributed elsewhere.

I thought Demos had a great, although unspectacular, game against the Breakers. Hit open shots; made the right passes and right plays; generally defended well, including forcing Abercrombie into a turnover late in the game.
I haven't been his biggest fan over the past few years, but if he's producing this well as a local role player, you have to keep him around (for the right price).

Demos has been a good servant of the Hawks for a few seasons now and you can't question his heart and his work ethic is undeniable.
I just wonder whether its time to let him go at the end of the season.
He hasn't progressed quite like it was hoped and the shooting guard position has been the Hawks downfall for the last few seasons.
Time to move in a different direction methinks.

Taips tried the double import PG with McCamey and Wilson - it was a stinker with neither knowing who was what when and why.

probs shouldn't have got so close. stupid intentional foul with breakers up by 5 with 10secs left. makes you wonder

I think for the Hawks, Ballinger is not playing the forward roll as strong as he did in Adelaide. Or they are not working him into their plays.
Neville is big, but a bit of a gentle giant, they lack some options for solid post ups power forward type plays.

Hawks unlucky. Great OR by Abba at end. Just chewed up enough seconds to kill the Hawks off

What a close game... or at least I assume it was.
Thanks to whoever is in charge of the NBLs telecast graphics.

The 2 import guard experiment was a no-show this weekend with Ervin leaving the game injured, and Carson leaving Thursday's early due to illness.
Regardless, it's way too early to consider it a failure.

The awe of the breakers has been removed the last few games. Hawks didn't play very well but managed to almost steal it - again.
Hawks shouldnt be 1-5 - but its 4Q's not 1Q you have to play ball for.

Somehow at half time it is still a close game. Not sure if the Hawks can get in front though!
