Its all about Cortez. thats the plan GET IT TO CORTEZ

 

[DoubleA]

Me and 4 mates are going, so 5 tickets potentially to 2 games.

But Im confident they'll get this one, but who knows how this Puerto Rican import for the Hawks will play.

 

[High Ryder]

Dragons got the job done, Ingles was sensational.

 

[ClintDogg]

New guy goes OK and i think is whats needed.

Shane Heal had a great game off the bench against Adelaide, injured and all.

Whats the go with Nick Horvath, why is it taking so long 4 Kiwi clearance?

[Bring-Back-Powell]

Dragons were woeful at times, but still got the points against the Slingers.

Have to do a lot better if they want to even think about finals.

Holmes sensational. Grizzard's been fantastic all year for the Slingers. Too bad they don't really have too much else.

 

[FrangaRoo]

Have to do a lot better if they want to even think about finals.

Spot on, they have to lift against the mid table teams to sneak in.

They have the talent.

GO DRAGONS:

Hendrix (bit quiet): 8 pts, 9 reb

Thats heaps quiet hey.

 

[driver 8]

NZ were playing without 2 IMPORTS, both injured.

Shane Heal went off tho, nice few 3s 2 bringem back at the end, close finish.

 

[Inferno]

Watched the end, Heal threw up a forced shot with two players in his face to level the game with 11 seconds or so on the shot clock...

 

[driver 8]

Dragons are rubbish

Should look into a proper coach

 

[Bring-Back-Powell]

Dragons are rubbish

Agree.
They should bring back Mark Price.

Seriously, their lack of success is un-Victorian and if they keep losing they'll end up folding like the Victoria Giants.

Gold Coast Convention Centre

GOLD COAST 127-116 SOUTH DRAGONS


BLAZE:
Crowe: 33 pts, 8 ast
Harvey: 27 pts, 5 ast
Joyce: 17 pts, 3 reb
Cameron: 15 pts, 8 reb

SOUTH:
Heal: 37 pts, 5 ast
Hendrix: 23 pts. only 1 reb
Ingles: 21 pts, 7 reb, 5 ast
Burston: 16 pts, 11 reb


Gold Coast hit a NBL record 26 threes (10 of them from Crowe). Heal was hitting almost all his shots. Hendrix had a quiet 1st half before dominating in the 3rd quarter scoring 15 i think. Ingles and Burston lso did well. While Crowe, Harvey (27 pts, 22 in 1st half) and Cameron were GC's best

 

[ToroHombre]

Crowe hit 10/14 from behind the arc if I remember correctly...
Heal couldnt quite match it with 6/12
26 threes, with 62% from that distance is just insane

CMON DRAGONS

 

[The_Young_Gun]

Mate, the dragons need some more young talent, Shane heal is pretty much carrying this team on his back right now, he must be averaging around 30 points per game, and for gods sake I can't believe he's 37 and still at his best, what a player.

 

[High Ryder]

Heal is not at his best.

Heal is a LONG way from the player he was 5 years ago. He is so inconsistent these days he is carrying the team one night and weighing them down the next.

Fully mate hey.

Heal still is tha Bom.

 

[The_Young_Gun]

Finnaly someone that agree's with me.

And for gods sake He plays and coaches at the same time, I'm surprised he's still living with that sorta pressure and stress on him, who cares if he's not that consistant he still gives those big numbers on occassions.

 

[High Ryder]

He is nowhere near his best mate. At his best he was getting 30 a night at will. He is playing some decent basketball but you are severely underrating him if you think he is peaking at 35 + yrs old.

 

[The_Young_Gun]

I'm just Cutting (Heal) some slack, I can't believe you guys are bagging him so much, he's a great player and still is a great player.

Yeah... he's a star

Front runner for coach of the year... not to mention defensive POY

He's rubbish
