Hoping we control this game better than when we needed OT to beat Giants.

This will be a very tough game, I don’t care what the league tables say....Giants will push us all the way, Riders to get the W but only by single figures.

Got to defend well against their outside players, particularly the bagman, Justin Satchell, who hit 5 from 9 three pointers against Wolves.
Jordan Whelan can also get hot from the 3 point line.

Anderson starting instead of Lee ... worrying
Lee is present and appears ready to play,

As predicted, it's a tight game so far.

Terrible 3 point percentage by Riders. Hopefully it will improve significantly in Q3+4

Considering we didn't have Lee that's a good win on the road by a decent points margin. Well done Riders.

Lee doesn't appear to be badly injured, he was warming down with the rest of the team at the end, despite playing zero minutes.
Both our centres did a good job tonight, as did Corey Johnson and, of course, Geno 'the general' Crandall.

Considering we didn't have Lee that's a good win on the road by a decent points margin. Well done Riders. Solid win but don't forget the loss of Lee was countered by Manchester's loss of Breaon Brady's 17 and 11. Leicester's ability to run an 8 man rotation to Manchester's 7 helped. Still a good win, but Leicester weren't comparatively at a disadvantage without Lee.

I was aware of that. However, we usually shoot threes with a much higher percentage yet we won despite very poor stats in that dept. Definitely a good win.

It's been announced this morning that Brady is leaving Giants.

Is that down to injury? He was a massive problem when he played against us. Talented inside player.
