I really rate Wolves' coach. Be interesting to see how we fayre against his team. Best of all, it's on Sky so decent tv coverage.

Unfortunately teams are not comparable and I fear it will not be an entertaining game for sky sports

A change each for both sides. Burns to Wolves and Heron to Riders. Assuming both have cleared protocols and will be available tonight?
Does this also mean Wolves have released Lawson?

Unfortunately teams are not comparable and I fear it will not be an entertaining game for sky sports I believe I will be entertained ok - its not always about the scoreline and the margin In the old days when we were attending games - distance to our nearest BBL side meant pick and choose the ones to go to. Some games I went to with zero expectation of a Rocks win and sometimes not even expecting a close game. However there was a player or players in the visiting team would want to see play. Tonight is one of those types of games - look forward to seeing more of Crandall and what he does. Tuning in based on players, not on teams. |

I understand, but for a potential new supporter a close game is more appealing, and could keep them watching longer and hopefully get hooked

Is there a tip off delay as it’s on sky?

Washington needs to start contributing offensively

Gotta challenge better with offensive rebounds. Not even trying at times whereas Wolves are killing us in our paint.

Losing Jackson causing us problems but Lee missing is a worse problem. Struggling to establish a rhythm in the first half. Crandall has been excellent.
Wolves have shown what team play can achieve when players are well drilled.

Tough rematch on Sunday. Heron only arrived yesterday but showed flashes of what he could contribute.

man wish Wolves could have just shown a bit more intensity and hussle on D in the final 2min - that game was there for their taking.
suspect a missed opportunity for them

Wolves showed masses of intensity throughout the game and it was only in Q3 that Riders began to match that.

Riders sneaked another one BUT that's what Riders do and they do it so well. Wolves had a real chance to bust the league open but as usual Riders found a way without the excellent Willy Lee and whilst integrating Heron. A very important win for them. Sign of a very good team to be able to win in the face of such adversity and change. Shame Wolves didn't have Burns, that could have made it very interesting.

My favourite thing this season is someone saying this game shouldn't be on sky as its a no contest for it to be a buzzer beater win

Huge 3 from Jackson, everybody knew it was going to be all string. Impressive performance from wolves

Enjoyable game. That final 3 was just classic. Defence converging to stop Crandall otherwise he will waltz through to the basket and probably pick up the foul too, leaving Johnson open. The one thing you do not do with this Riders side with 2.6 seconds left.
And could someone give Justin Robinson a cheer-up pill or something before he commentates next time? His input was good but blimey, Justin, the end of the world is not nigh.

Well I was the one that said it should not be on sky.! I can see where I was coming from with Worcester's recent form. I have obviously underrated their coach and team. Happy to be proved wrong
