Sixers get on the gas last night or something. Absolutely pathetic first quarter

Need to pull our socks up

[DOC]

Probably our worst quarter for 10 games.

Need to continue to outrebound at both ends and send it through the hands. Make them play a lot of D. Shooting poor from both sides but theirs is on the decline otherwise we would be looking at a 15+ deficiet. !0 is gettable. Within a basket at the half would be good.

[Gozu]

If we start actually making our FT's and Jacobsen learns how to score on a PG in the post we'll be alright.

Seven missed free throws FFS

Randle is the shit

[DOC]

Indeed. I'm guessing he will go for 35 and get fouled a lot.

This isn't looking good

The dulcet tones of the SANFL's John Casey is making a return to NBL commentary in the Illawarra vs Perth game on now

To me he is the best commentator. Has a feel for the game.

Absolutely he just adds something no other commentator does, I've really missed him doing NBL games and all his expressions.

Clinton Grybas was better. RIP . Case is good but has too many predictable catch phrases.

They were terrible and that is the performances indeed will haunt us the second half of the year. When the Sixers are off they are terrible!

Still if you are Joey Wright I would make it known to remember the arrogance shown by Melbourne today and use it as motivaton. The amount of mocking that went on should inspire any team that is good enough to respond.

The Perth Wildcats today finally announced the signing of new import Bryce Cotton a 6'1" PG/SG who has had stints over the last two years in the NBA with Utah, Phoenix and Memphis and most recently played in Turkey earlier this season.
