Grand Final Series 2020: Game 4 Wildcats v Kings

Might stick with the triangle and shift from White to Kay. Might not work any better, but probably worth a shot.

Years ago

With crowds out of the equation, tactical adjustments have been the big difference in each game this series so far.
With that in mind, after the way Kay just burned the Kings, I'm expecting Weaver to adopt a classic "line and three" defensive scheme rather than the "triangle and two" he went with in the last couple. Will the Cats find a way to counter it?

"Sydney has more upside left"

How so?

Sydney are on there knees, there is know coming back. Never looked like winning yesterday even when they tied it up Perth just put the foot down. He’s done good Weaver but the back half of the year has shown his limitations.

Yes, White hitting shots would help the Cats immensely, but on the other hand, Cotton has had 7 big games in a row against Sydney - he's due for an off night. If White scores 20 next game, but Cotton only gets 18 off the same looks- then overall the team's in the same place.

I think as a team, Sydney has more upside left

Which is why I think it'll go to 5. But who wins game 5 (if it happens) - who knows.

I dont disagree with you LV of the quality of ware but the importance of white to his team is just as high. The kings have far more depth and players like lisch newley louzada and bruce can all knock down their shots. I wasn't expecting the cats to win game 3 for that reason but it took a massive game from kay to fill the void.

Where does it say this?

Casper has more upside because

1. He's a better player to begin with

And

2. He's further out of form than White

Obviously White is out of form too, but nothing like Casper. Casper's body of work over 3.5 years speaks for itself. He's never been this out of form before.

Unless it's his body?

Yeah i feel the poor form of white and ware cancel each other out. Cats with just as much upside if white can rediscover his best.

Kings have many more options to cover wares form but too many egos. The cats are just pros and play team basketball.

Same if White and plumlee Sydney wouldn't have a chance. You are relying on a pair of 33 Yr olds to win you a tittle?

Like Casper is 9 from 44 including 1 from 23 from 3. It's the stuff of nightmares.

Sydney has a lot of upside. Makes this interesting.

Weaver needs to stop subbing so much.

Lisch is a legend of the NBL. Bogut is Bogut. Last year's MVP. Both are playing well in this series, but both are averaging 23 minutes per game.

Sydney is -3 across 3 games with their best scorer shooting 8ppg on 20% from the field. Pretty incredible really. If Casper just has two decent shooting night, not even big games, just hit a couple here and there, you'd think Sydney would win the series.

Game 4 probably being moved to Wednesday.

Game 5 won’t be necessary

Who should be the next coach of the Adelaide Lightning if Buckle heads out of town as expected to go coach the Bulleen Boomers?
