R1: Melbourne vs Illawarra
Perth and Melbourne need to play home games now because of the tennis, and Sydney lose their venue in December so the more home games they've played by then the better.
And since all these teams have to play against someone, other teams are going to have road-heavy schedules.

Well, United did what they had to to get over the line, Hawks are good but just not able to lead during games and chasing their opponents.
0-2 is going to be hard for the Hawks now, but they are not far off the mark, A.J. is a key for them he has to dominate.
Anyone know the crowd today, seemed to be a good one on the TV?

Agreed. No avoiding bench time in a game of this tempo. Great effort by the Hawks, and could have been much closer had a couple more of those very good looks dropped




Love Holt's game. He knows his environment. Doesn't try to do too much.
Very efficient player which is perfect given the talent on that team.

Blame that loss on Penney. Every pass he made lead to a bad play..got to go back to the source ;)

This games being very exciting IMO. Best of round.
Perth Adelaide game was a grind.

paul, every player should have clock/game awareness. It shouldn't be reserved for guards only.
Ellis needs to be taken off.

Greenwood would have got a big shock this year if he thought he would waltz into the Boomers team.

Ellis' last shot was absolutely stupid. Can't blame Penney for passing it up court. Any player with 1/100th of a brain would pull that out. The result of not doing that = a Goulding three.





Coenraad is underrated big time.
Man there is some serious talent out there on the court right now among the 10.

This one is also live on GO!
Looks like GO! are adding their own flavour to the telecast, starting it off with their own in-studio intro.

I was browsing the box scores of some completed games earlier and noticed Patty Mills listed as DNP for the Blazers as reason right hamstring.
I thought he was dominating the D-League and don't re-call previous mentions of him being injured.
Hopefully this is a minor set-back as we all want him on the court playing and representing Australia.
Does anybody have further knowledge on this?
