Will check my YTD and update for next weekend. Been a little pre-occupied lately.
Adelaide 36ers @ Sydney Kings: Kings -8.5
Loving this game tonight though
So, we have the Kings coming off a bad loss to Melbourne and the 36ers coming off a massive win in Brisbane. There was a bit of revenge in that game seeing that Adelaide coach was having a nice little twitter war with a Brisbane Bullets player. Randle vs Lisch. Great battle. Lisch found it hard to go up against Ware the other night in Melbourne but Ware is a brand new import and apart from Youtube clips, Lisch wouldn't have known too much about him. He has played against Randle several times last season when he was with the Hawks and knows his game. Bullets were laying -7.5 vs Adelaide last game and lost S/U but lets look at the comparison stats.
36ers Off Eff: 109.3
Def Eff: 116.4
Bullets Off Eff: 109.9
Def Eff: 109.6
Kings Off Eff: 110.9
Def Eff: 106.9
Sydney is 2nd in the league for TO's, just 11 per game compared to Bullets who TO 15.5 times per game and 36ers turn over the ball 15 times.
I just have to go with the home side in this game seeing that its very hard for any team in this league to win 2 games on the road over the course of one weekend. Think the Kings win this and can win it by 10+
