Looking forward to this game. Sharks coming off a defeat to the Newcastle Eagles on Friday.
I have a positive feeling that Rocks will be able to use the Sharks fatigue to their advantage and pull off a good result.
Let's hope that Keeling and Delph put up good performances!

8 - 8 after quarter 1, looks to me as though both teams are tired.

Just looked at play by play .....
I was wrong, he did 4 on 4 off after playing the whole bench together again to ensure we gave up a few more points, then gets forced into a timeout and 4 subs at once just to give the bench lads a bit more confidence.... genius
Why isnt coach Backovic giving better advice ??

So we managed all of 54 points and lost by 11 to the 1 and 7 record basement dwellers, absolutely hilarious! What a calamitous team we are, lead by captain clueless.

I enjoyed this borefest. Thank you sharks for allowing us to beat you. Rocks just wanted it more and defended better. Both teams struggled behind the arc which seems to be the norm for rocks now.

Check out the shut chart qtr by qtr and see how focused we get in the second half and particularly in the last qtr where we only shot at point blank range or a three
This team is trying so hard to play to instruction they are not playing
Playing bench together is not a rotation either and should only happen in scrub time if we are up a lot
Lyons has never been able to handle a rotation of more than 7, there are to many options to figure out

Yup, we allowed you to win !! Who takes responsibility for a loss like this ? Maybe they walked to Glasgow |

The sharks have 5 imports and they simply alll are among the worst in the league (albeit ratinho only recently arrived so probably harsh to judge him).The turnovers from the starters is embarrassing and every game I have watched this year it’s just dribble, drive on offence from the guards and a lack of intensity throughout. Bottom three without doubt as it is.
The rocks defensively was the key to the win today they looked much improved and with Gareth in the game they look a different beast.

Admittedly I didn’t watch this one....but certainly for the first month or so of last season, Koch was always my go to name for anything Fantasy basketball or Prediction game T/S related.
What’s happened there? Simply been found out?

Yup, we allowed you to win !! Who takes responsibility for a loss like this ? Maybe they walked to Glasgow Gareth can take responsibility - worked out what D would limit sharks and that he had a key role to play in the D stats say Rocks only gave up 3 offensive rebounds to Sharks! Limiting 2nd chances, that is game winning D. You can play this sport the Keegan way - who cares if we concede 90pts a game as long as we can score 95pts. Or you can decide whats key is keep your opponent at 60 or less knowing you only have to score 16pts a quarter to get the W. Would love to be in the luxury of Lions and their depth and take the former approach - but for Rocks the latter method seems more appropriate for now if want to get up to the play off spots. |

Couldn't agree more with this. I would love to see the "we don't care how many you score, we will score more than you" approach. But I believe the latter is a much better approach for the Rocks. Strong defence, limiting scoring options for the opposing team and know you just have to hit 15/20 points a quarter. |

At 1 and 7 going into this game Im pretty sure that Gareth also accepts that they are a bit short on talent but he`s got the best out of them today My worry is the trend and the poor direction of the talent we do have. When you see players give up on defense you have problems and add a directional focus on offense that the players can`t execute then your not going to do too good |
