That was an incredible match last night. Could Perth **** up any more than they did in the last 5 minutes? Game should have been iced with 2 mins to go with Perth up by 7 with possession.

You called it mid year, Gozu. Childress was single handedly keeping our season afloat. He has stepped up another level in the finals.

3 more wins. Go you Sixers!

Childress was great but without Creek early we could have been 30 down

That late block by Moore to get Childress the game winning basket was huge

Yeah good call.

Although Cotton was hampered by that calf in the 2nd half, Moore was wonderful in quelling his influence.

Even though he struggled to fit in early Childress was too dominant just 1.5 years earlier with the Kings to not be a significant factor for us.

Josh Childress sounding keen about coming back to the 36ers next season.

Quizzed on whether or not the Club was interested in bringing him back, Childress insisted it was all on the 36ers.

"That's all on Joey. That's all on Joey Wright. He makes those decisions. He has mentioned that to me and to Shannon and Ramone as well but we'll see how it all shakes out at the end of the season." explained Childress.

"I definitely have enjoyed it (Adelaide). It's been an incredible experience for me. I've enjoyed the people here in Adelaide, they've been very welcoming and super nice to me so I'm always appreciative of that," he said.

"From a season perspective, we've accomplished what we've set out to accomplish to this point. Now we just have to finish it off and take care of business in this next too weeks."

When hosts Rowey and Bricks pushed Childress for an answer if he personally wanted to return, the answer was more promising for 36ers fans.

"Absolutely! I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here."
