Sixers at kings 7.30 AEDT

Just can't see anything but a kings win. Cooks has been good without his normal accolades when he was just ok, he’ll give it to Harrell.

Cracking start by Sixers, I'm hoping my tip is wrong, Sixers passing been exquisite. Humphries and Cadee playing on there home court. They call fouls on Harrell that he doesn’t get at the other end. Davis is star, hope he stays in the league.

Kuol fouls on every defensive play, they just don't call them all.

Harrell has to come up on that pick and roll, doesn't seem to be learning and Adams is cooking them every time.

Refs allowing a lot of contact, Kings getting the benefit of it at the moment, good game to watch so far.

Those 2 missed 3's killed the 36ers momentum for a good period there.

DJ getting hot at the right time. Could have gone into a big hole with Davis on the bench.

Davis touches Kuol and foul, Kuol grabs, grabs no call. Davis on four fouls. Harrell giving it to smith and Pondgrass of the free throw line. Humphries been absolutely brilliant on D. Cadee showing his experience.

They could have called that foul on Kuol all the way down the court

Wells rolling with Humphries against the recent trend of benching him for Martin is the smart move here.

Sixers let kings back in but still just to good. Humphries absolutely magnificent, joint by Davis, Harrell, DJV good in the last but very team first all game. Dech, Mayern, Cadee did exactly what was needed. Martin was sort ok but overall season wasted.

Kings imo get away with players fouling continuously and don't get it called enough. I thought Cooks would be to athletic but Humphries ate him and Oliver. Adams kept them in it but other than Goorj getting into the refs not much else.

Great game, great for the nbl, let’s hope Sixers can go on with it. Harrell is an entertainer, agree though some might think he a D head but overall great for the league.

Humphries best plus and index on the floor.

Humphries definitely huge and good on Wells to keep him in the game too because he hasn't been doing that lately. Definitely switched off a bit at the end, but they didn't get over emotional on the Kings physicality on D and apart from an uncharacteristically bad night from Davis everyone hit their FT's.

36ers managed to shut down their 3pt shooting in the 2nd half and kept pounding it inside to keep the score moving. Teams gonna have to hit a lot of 3's to make up for 60-42 on points in the paint.

That was the most impressive Sixers win for some time in a high quality affair. They could have wilted after being down at half time but instead played some of their best basketball of the season. They were even doing the little things like Trez diving on the floor which led to a huge DJV three at a crucial time. Haven't seen a lot of that from the Sixers this season.

Can we stop with any nonsense that the Sixers would be better off without Kendric Davis. He's played one of the best first year seasons out of any import ever. He needs to be priority 1,2,3,4 and 5 to retain. And if you think Trey Kell is a better player you're an idiot. Even without actually watching the two guys play where it's obvious KD is better he is beating him hands down in pretty much every statistical category. And despite being much smaller only averages 0.1 rebounds less per game. He plays better defence, is a much better scorer, shoots at a higher percentage and is a better passer. Need I go on?

And it's not as if Trey Kell's play translated into wins for us last season. In fact he got one of his triple doubles in a massive blow out loss.

Kudos to Trez and Humphries for massive games and DJV with some very smart and big buckets in the 4th qtr.

Adelaide surely make it from here with home games against the Bullets and NZ to come. Good enough to beat SEM on the road too. Probably a deep run in the post season in the offering with both the Kings and Hawks amongst their bunnies. Maybe some joy at last for the long suffering fans.

Oh KL it's the Sixers. Nothing is guaranteed, if anything the opposite of of what you expect generally will happen.

My complaint about Harrell was that he was a big part of letting Sydney back in. His confidence out weighs his abilities, he's not a creative ball handler but thinks he can take anyone off the dribble then turns it over.

Then when he wasn’t ready for the poor pass they intercepted he was the last one to get back by a long way.
He doesn’t have the talent to be casual and cruise, he’s an energy guy. He hurt Adelaide in the last few minutes and that’s why I called him a dick head.

I just think some of our players/coaches have NBA disease in that NBA teams dont often play out the last couple of minutes because percentage does not matter when you have an 82 game season..

Not to mention the NBA habit where you only turn up / play proper super hard defence when you need to make a run...
