Has there been a better chance of a 3 point shoot out at the dome than tonights game?
Sydney shot the beejeebus out of it on Wednsesday night.
Will be looking forward to the duel between Bruton, Smith, Carter, Worthington and Kendall against Farley , Maher, Hill and Oscar.
Both have streaky shooters and consistant jump shooters any chance of some d being played at all?

I wish this was on Fox. Kings vs 36ers games this year should be highly entertaining.
The Kings however are pretty banged up with several injured players and despite the results are still clearly a few rounds off really gelling.
It pains me to say this as a Kings fan, but I'm expecting Adelaide to get this one. It will certainly be a good show.

I think Sydney have the better overall roster but Adelaide have three key players likely to post better numbers. I can't even remember who I tipped, but I have a feeling that Adelaide will get up as usual for any chance to beat the Kings at home.

Assuming each team has at least one of their guns firing, I think it will be won with the rebounding that will spark it all or provide the second looks. In which case, I think the key is in form of the Sydney frontline. Thornton has barely played yet due to injury, and may still not be good for more than 15-20 minutes. If that's the case, Roberts has been getting swamped out there being asked to do it all and either Knight or Worthington are going to have to get down there in the thick of it and also do a great job on Rychart, or the 36ers will out rebound them and from there take the game. I would also assume that with his form and accompanying hype, CJ will be little more than a decoy till the 2nd half when attention has sufficiently shifted. I'd look to Smith and Worthington to be the offensive focus in the first half, if of course Adelaide are doing a good number on CJ. If not, look out...
