Hawks vs Breakers 20th Jan

Hawks seemed impotent for stretches. When the shots didn't fall, they had nothing else.

Bullets imports should watch the Breakers imports for ideas. Like, trying a bit more.

Would love to steal Sobey... but I think he'd be out of our price range : )

Dillard is a DOMINANT BEAST! Hawkies did a reasonable job to slow him and pesker him & HE STILL OWNED THE GAME!

Only way to shut him out of the game is to go at him & try & get him in foul trouble. NZ are looking dangerous heading in to the finals.

When the Hawkies aren't hitting their 3s we miss not having an athlete (like Akil Mitchell) to own the boards & contest the glass.

Hope we go out & poach Finn Delany or Craig Moller to fill that gap for next season.

Hopefully Abercrombie is back on the court Sunday against the Wildcats.

Dilard / Ili
Penney / Carter
Abercrombie / Delany
Vukona / Mitchell
Loe / Pledger

Fair amount of firepower with that starting 5 and a decent bench with Carter and Pledger able to keep the scoreboard ticking over.

"The Hawks fans constant booing of Dilard looks to have affected him"

I'd say it's the consistent pressing up, trapping and double teaming keeping him quiet

New Zealand have a habit of limping into a season, then ramping up at the right time. Looks like this season will be no different.

3QT 76 TO 66 Breakers

Breakers are surprising me considering the way there played against a injury depleted Bullets despite winning.

Years ago

Paul Carter having a tough night at the office but Penney, Dillard, Loe and Pledger playing well.
Vukona has looked injured the last few weeks, leg looks crook?

Years ago

What a pass by Dillard there to end the corner on the Loe 3.

Years ago

Great game so far. Dillard making a difference for NZ.

God love the resurrection of John Casey. Decent game too lillard fun to watch, little unpredictable doesn't always take the best shots but confidence is second to none!

Referees have good money on the Hawks tonight.

Look..it happens, they are only humans

Casey, Carfino & Harvey, good team

Hawks comfortably

Tonight will be a good test for the Breakers, are they contenders or pretenders?
I heart hopes NZ will win but my head tells me the Hawks by 12.

Breakers have beaten two struggling teams in mediocre games of basketball, they're going to have to step up a level to beat the Hawks in the Gong.

When they have been able to slow oppo their D has been excellent this season, but they have really struggled to slow Adelaide and Illawarra because of their turnovers.

Given the tendency of Dillard and Carter to get lost defensively it will be tough tonight. I think they're going to need to control the ball very well and shoot very well.

Breakers get this one and with some ease. About to make a run
