Breakers, Kings bring heat ahead of rematch

DEPLETED New Zealand last night opened the NBL round with a 10-point win over equally depleted Cairns before Sydney reasserted itself over its unfashionable "kid brother" Illawarra by double that, cruising to a 20-point victory despite Gary Clark's best efforts. 

No NBL. Stop terrorising the audience

Forget speculation. Brisbane is the real deal

LOOK out! There's a new kid on the block putting up his hand as a genuine contender and fans of the Brisbane Bullets should start packing Nissan Arena. Their steady dismantling last night of South East Melbourne was precise and efficient, in a game which often threatened to explode.

NBL Rd6 Rankings, Tips: Mystery solving on the cards

CAN Brisbane and Adelaide continue their newly-found revivals, is Cairns the real deal, will South East Melbourne continue its run, has New Zealand hit the skids and is Perth as bad as we all - even Bryce Cotton's better half - suspect? NBL Round 6 should have a few answers for us.

NBLTotW5: Gunning for the Teams title

A PAIR of wins again for Melbourne United, solidifying it at the head of the NBL ladder, held the club in good stead again as our NBL Team of the Week for Round 5.

That is until the Bullets came out firing.

Seriously, NBL's Upset Round a Nightmare

NBL tipsters experienced a nightmare NBL Round 5, with only league-leading Melbourne United fulfilling expectations, Chris Goulding alight for 33 points against Illawarra, and Brisbane closing the weekend with an upset over Tasmania.
