NBL 2019/20 Season - Congratulations to the Perth Wildcats

Is there actually a brass band at the game, or has the DJ just made a weird choice in music?

Perth defence today is horrendous

There was even moments where he was playing Defence chant when Phoenix had the ball

yes actual band, green t-shirts behind the basket and phoenix end of court

 

[DT_35]

Geez there’s been so phantom calls for Creek today

 

[trikster]

Phoenix look so much better with Wesley providing a legitimate inside threat, but Perth shooting too well today.

 

[Biggie]

Big weekend for the Wildcats

Perth 14/28 from deep

Yeh thought Perth might have burnt a lot of mental energy all week in the lead up to the Kings game and coming to Melbourne against a good side Phoenix might have stolen this, but when a teams going at 50%+ from the arc they're gonna be damn hard to beat.....

Just need Kings to win this arvo to win my multi.

That unsportsmanlike call against Magden proves how much of a disgrace the rule is

 

[DT_35]

Lol gaze can you even count mate?

Ffs Derwayne you don't need to say "NBA RANGE" every time someone shoots it a couple of feet behind the three point line

I'm not a hateful person. I think I hate Dwayne. Has to be the most out of touch commentator with what the listeners want.

I've given Steindl plenty of s**t in this thread. Happy to eat crow given his performance the last couple of games. Providing the scoring punch from the bench and covering for Norton's recent efforts.

The NBL must have instructed the Kings to play like garbage and tank this weekend to help ease all the outrage over their spending, imports/next stars and the Cooks signing.

 

[drd23]

Is Ware trying to do a Cotton and only do his scoring in the 4th while leading his team to victory?

 

[drd23]

This game has turned into a hell of a match up in the last 5-10 mins

 

[Aussie_boy]

Imagine if Cairns could beat Illawarra

 

[juss]

Apart from the fact it's in NZ, not sure why the Breakers are -2.5 point favourites against Brisbane. If Bullets handle the trip you think they'd cover that if not win outright.

Just about to post that.

Farce. No clue why they signed him. Ultra talented player, too much of a headcase

 

[JT_the_Man]

Apparently wouldn’t have played the Bullets anyway because Hopson is back.

Glen Rice Jnr is way better then Hopson. However Hopson also hasn't been arrested twice in 2 months either

Stupid bloody rule.

He still kinda sucks. Occasionally he comes on and gets hot, like vs the Kings on Friday. Corner 3, catch and shoot 3, deep 3... etc. He can come on and shoot 6 from 7 in a quarter.

Problem is he's a one trick pony. Often we'll bring in him on and he'll go 0/5 and we'll just keep him on hoping that will change. He's not Cotton who can score 5 points a half on 20% shooting then finish with 30. If Steindl starts cold best to give him a jumper and a comfy seat. I'd rather have Martin on who is a defensive pest or Jesse who is an all rounder.
