[Gozu]

SF series best of 3 games

GF best of 5 games

[Spargo]

One down three to go

I was talking this series.
The Finals are best of 5 which means we have to win at least 4 more.

[Brodlach]

True, forgot the GF series was 5

[Wedgie]

That was sweet being courtside tonight, such a cruisey win.
I get an extra nights pay if we lose in Perth but would be happy if a GF was assured and we wrap it up on two.
I expect a different Wildcats in Perth though.

Going to OT

What a second half some of those shots by Penney damn

[Brodlach]

How many uncalled fouls both ways in that last 15 seconds

[Jim05]

Melbourne just too good when it matters

[Gozu]

What a three by Loe to tie it up again

Geez I thought Melbourne looked home. Credit to NZ, hope they can produce something special now

[Gozu]

Josh Boone with the buzzer beating put back.

Melbourne win 88-86

What a game!

[Brodlach]

What. A. Finish.

[Brodlach]

Anyone else think they started the clock too late on that last play? Boone touched the ball after it being inbounded then about a second later grabbed the ball from midair and that’s when the clock started. Meant United had nearly 4 seconds and allowed Boone to get that second shot in

I didn't notice that pretty much as soon as they started shaking hands SBS just cut away from the game no doubt because it ran about 20 minutes overtime.

So Melbourne and NZ have finished their series? Adelaide and perth still don’t play for another 4 days which means the series could go for another 1 week. Why is there such a big gap between the two series?

I looked into further and noticed both game 3s were scheduled for Sunday. Assuming the big gaps were travel to NZ?
