NBL Week 2

Question

2016/17 : 0-2Sydney Kings &#x2B;5Hard to cap this league so far but tonight I see some value in the Kings. Illawarra got off the chain last week against an Adelaide team that gave up in the last quarter. Don&#x27;t expect the same this week, especially with the Kings new import Josh Powell suiting up. Too much talent on that roster and they will be a handful for the Hawks tonight.

There we go Freddie.. Great start to Week #2 mate..Seemed a little sus that the line opened at just -1.5 and the Kings had lost 16 of their previous 17 road games..

True mate but the result doesn&#x27;t surprise me. This season is different to any other we&#x27;ve had with the extra import and return of Aussies abroad, the talent level in the league has gone through the roof.

Agree mate and I also like how they brought up how many points each team&#x27;s import combined for in Week #1. Completely agree with you mate, this year is going to be tougher.

Adelaide : &#x2B;1.5Another game with value here. United have been very average while the Sixers have shown some good signs. This is a historical play as much as anything because Melbourne have only won once in Adelaide in their last 8 visits.

Perth/New Zealand - Total under 155.5Here are 2 teams with a history of low scoring matchups. While the Wildcats are keen to play a more up tempo game that will take time to fully implement. The Breakers, on the other hand, will do as Cairns did when they played in Perth and slow the game down at all costs. Defence will also be fierce as it always is when these 2 play each other.

Brisbane : -4.5Brisbane are probably the best performed team thus far. The sixers have shown, and will continue to show inconsistency for the rest of the season. The books are giving Adelaide a little too much respect in this game.
