Breakers vs Tigers, Jan 22
Some big games over the next couple of rounds could shape the top-end of the NBL ladder. Tonight sees second-placed NZ host third-placed Melbourne. The Tigers are unbeaten since making some changes to their roster and I think they could be the team to beat from this point on.
(The Dragons remind me a bit of Sydney from last season - even spread of talent that can do well in the regular season, but are beatable in the finals.)
Anyway, for the Breakers, Bruton has taken a couple of days off training to rest for the game after being hampered in their last outing. Anyone know the status of Thomas for the Tigers?
Centrebet have the Breakers very, very narrow favourites with a line of just -1.0.
The game is on Fox tonight, but delayed.
Tips?
Hoping they won't, but I think Melbourne could get this one.
