After our last game where we were allowed to dominate, this'll present a bigger challenge no doubt. As the players managed to play well as a team I think this ought to prove a good test of whether that can be sustained against stronger opposition.

This isn't even close. I can't fault the production but I think I'm going to switch over and watch the Lions game. Free on the Lions YouTube channel.

Don't think Bristol have played that bad. Riders have just been that good. Really nice flow to the game. A couple of local league style sympathy calls towards the end of the half but other than that they've let them play which has been nice.

Why don’t all teams play this way,
Win the game in the first quarter, then just grind the game out.

another well put together package by the team putting this onto sky - pre and post game segments plus half time are all worth sitting through - these days a lot of the pundits on other live sports (especially football) is bland, boring, repetitive and great time to go get another drink or more snacks! Keep it fresh guys, show them how it can be done.
Agree with the comment that Bristol did not play that bad - they just never recovered from a whirlwind spell by Riders in P1. Kept thinking they were going to get it back to single figures and up popped Riders to take it out to 12 or 14 again.
Shame there is now the long break before the next live game on sky. Would have been nice to have one that a trailer was run for on the opening NBA games on Sky - same way on tonight's broadcast sky ran a NBA trailer

Bit disappointed we have Eagles in the semifinal. I think they are showing consistency and will be very difficult opponents. Lions must be happy to get Giants. Nevertheless, they should be exciting games.

It was always going to be eagles v riders mate, I predicted it in advance and hey presto sure enough, don’t think lions have it easy though as giants are improving.. Still not a fan of 2 leg basketball either |

Why don’t all teams play this way, Win the game in the first quarter, then just grind the game out. It's a very effective and efficient way to win, but it's not fun to watch. Our game against Leicester the other week was truly painful to watch, the result was never seriously in doubt, just 60 point boredom from tip to buzzer. Contrast that to London's last 2 games. Absolute car crash TV, massive scoring runs for either teams, comedy D followed by elite level D, 90+ point entertainment, and the result could have gone either way. That's what I want to watch. If the bbl had stuck with the idiotic team monthly subscription, I'd have been tempted to follow them instead of the Sharks. |

Enjoyed that, even though we never really threatened Riders early lead.
But I thought we showed character and Leicester look a very good side.
