Exactly my thought dude, Tigers have given up for the season whilst the King are due for s good performance... Hammer will push these guys for max effort & play some D for once.

Wildcats-3.5 v Breakers (Big)
Huge game for potential minor premiership & home court advantage in playoffs. Breakers don't have a good history in Perth & Cats know that this is a rare opporunity for them to snatch that number one spot & set themself up for a real shot at winning the title. Matt Knight will play & the recent team meeting will hopefully have addressed the team's epic third quarter fade out issues. Cats tend to rebound well off a lost & the jungle will provide them with a confidence booster to play well & get the W.
Kings+10 @ Blaze
Under 166.5 Kings/Blaze

That under on the Gold Coast is a play for me as well fwiw, I pegged the number at 162.
I make the Blaze a -7 fave so a slight edge on the Kings but motivation questionable so will probably just play the under |

The condensed schedule is a reason why scoring has slowed in the nba....what is the nbl's excuse? |

yeah and the lockout - it's fucked with teams' chemistry and players' conditioning.
The NBL has no excuse, it's just a low standard basketball league nowadays because financial sustainability is the top priority for most clubs.
A friend of mine of facebook who's an ex Townsville / Taipans & 36ers point guard commented on his own wall last night that he'd never seen so many missed lay ups as he'd seen in Adelaide last night |
