gg, Ace, Ninnis would have taken Maher off as he needs to be used sparingly in the first half im sure he will play most minutes in the last half.

Most impressive is proabably the 0 turnovers.

Pity he is in my fantasy team this week though

Ballinger usually has big 3rd quarters. This game is very early Blaze could easily come back and win. Sixers are playing good so far though!

Luke has 9 and 9. Stats are so much fun to look at when your team is winning! Maher 10points in 11minutes...not bad.

Good to see were not relying on hitting the 3 in this game (1/5 3PT)
From that it looks like we are getting to the rim more, and maybe our offensive sets are working better.
The Minx

Great half by Bruce.
In each of the games, he seems to appear a lot more comfortable when playing alongside Maher. I also think he will benefit greatly with the aquisition of Julius and be able to get more open shots as he is a decent shooter when he gets his feet set. Over his slump it seems as though he has really lacked good shot opportunities as running the offense has had too much of a burden on him. With Maher, Davidson and Hodge all able to take the pressure off AB in that regard, I expect him to show what he is really capable of from here on in.

Balls for 3 to put us back out by double figure , c'mon sixers, lets keep it above ten going into the fourth

Led from start to finish. Great win lads. Balls, Bruce & Luke played awesome by the looks of it.
Aaron Bruce played the PG position for 43 minutes and only had 1 turnover. That's a blood good effort by the young fella!

Great to see SOJ play like an SOB.
Good win for the boys, we should now go into next weekend's double header with some momentum.
Great stuff from Bruce to come good, and glad to see Hill continue his positive play. Certainly didn't miss Winitana, so he can have a couple of DNP-CD (Coach's Decisions) next week instead of today's DNP-GD (God's Decision).
I know it is only the Gold Coast, but any road win against anyone is great for us right now.

Also, great to see only 10 turnovers, following that debacle on Wednesday night.

Winitana is a valuable member of the team PERIOD! With the inclusion of him and Julius for the Spirit game, well....lets just say the Spirit will need ALOT of Spirit to come close to this team. Our Defense has been fantastic recently, win or lose, no one gets 100 plus on us anymore, nice to see.

How can you play 25 minutes and not get a stat except for one block. It's not like the guy is a defensive menace either. What exactly could he have been providing out there??

Hardness. If his face and menacing tats don't scare you, I don't know what will.

was at game... sixers played some good D, but didn't really exploit players like SOJ which I think they should have on both D and O... refs kept screwing over Luke and Bruce, who despite that kept on ripping up the Blaze... big game by Ballinger, and Maher showing why he is still the man in Adelaide... not to mention Hill showing alot of hustle and playing like the next big thing to come out of Adelaide, future looking bright...
managed to get Joyce and Heal a lil angry with some AZN Pride chants, and boo's... not to mention a few smart ass comments that the blaze fans had to give me shit for lol

Thanks for the re-cap guys, I took a Nanna-nap & missed the freak'n game. : (

Looking forward to the post-game press release. You da man Scottie. : )

Mutley, I think its more like the Sixers didn't miss Tyndale as this seemed to free up Maher and Hill. So those that said Sixers would do better even without an import were proven right.

Davo not having symptoms like Flu, could have helped. ; )
bruce leads the league in assists after this game!
pretty sure u hav the best pure passing point guard in the league and can score wat a weapon!
some people under esitimate how important ab is to this team, when he is on sixers are a 10-20 point better team.
i would love him on the tigers

Always good to win on the road, but to quote the Wolf, let's not start sucking each others dicks just yet, it was against a team with a record of what, 1 and 11?

Agreed! He's a gun.
Fantastic win with only 8 players, good to see Bruce take the oppurtunity to get some form back against SoJ and Heal.
Also great to see the Twin Gingers take 36 shots between them :)
Heal and SoJ went for 2-18 combined. LOL!
Watch out Dragons.

Great win, appears that we played well based on the box scores.
Would like to know how we actually played......Statman - I'm assuming you were there, care to give a run down? Did the Blaze lose the game, or did the Sixers win it?
Good win. Blaze got to within 4 points in final 5 mins. Great final 5 mins from Hill. 2 Steals and 8 Points.
Not surprised we won with Ballinger taking 25 shots.. that's what we need more of! Just give him the ball!
