Kings vs United, Jan 28
Can the refs let them play, two correct challengers both overturned. Good game getting ruined by over whistling.

Delly is allowed to move, he wasn't setting a screen, Bruce jumped all over his back.
United certainly beatable, if kings keep playing like this. Bowen is playing better than Travers, JLA getting done over by kings bigs. Kings coach doing very well, has Vickerman measure at present.

Delly challenge interesting. He was moving, so technically yes, a moving screen. Correct decision- unsuccessful.
But if that occured in open court, away from the ball, it's a borderline unsportsmanlike on Bruce. Basketball is a "challenging" sport to referee.
My question was what was the Kings coach thinking? Dumbest challenge I've seen all year. Obvious foul on Hunter.

Bruce building a host in the 3rd. Was left out there way too long

Vickerman showing again he can make changes at the half to change the game.

Kings have some dumb players, they go from passing on offence to it's my shot you guys have had yours. Melbourne probably got this now.

Bolden getting fouled out might have been the winner, Hunter has been fantastic. Kings got the players just got play the smart ones.

As much as I don't fancy the kings, this is an impressive win over united. The league is in good shape, you can't afford to be even 2% off your game at the moment otherwise you get done. Not many easy games.

Absolutely. Every team in the league is a chance against every other team on any night.
Hell, I felt much less sick after the SEM lost by Sydney watching the Phoenix back up against Perth - they could have had that game if they'd made their open looks (same ones the made vs Sydney).

The first part of the year it was a case of having lots of bad teams so the league was unpredictable, whereas the second part of the year lots of teams are playing well and it's great to watch.
It's worth noting, a big part of the season being rubbish early on was the refs allowing the game to be like rugby, once they started reffing by the rules the game has become predictable and we've seen great individual and team performances.
