Both Leicester and Plymouth both looking to bounce back from big beat downs last week. I probably fancy Leicester to win this one though and come out fighting.
Eagles vs Flyers should be interesting since their both playing in the same Euro league. Flyers have the advantage of playing at home but I like to think we can win this. Hopefully the Eagles that played the 2nd half against Sharks will be able to show up. I'm expecting a tight game though.

Eagles can win easy if they play like they did second half against Sharks and keep Brad Green away from the basket. If anyone wants an early over reaction Plymouth won't win a game all season, so easy win for Riders.

Riders must be better than last week surely?

Riders must be better than last week surely? God, I don't think it could be worse. Pretty confident that we'll play much better defence. That was the most shocking aspect to me in last week's game.

If Riders win by 40+ I’ll buy all travelling fans a pint afterwards so we can celebrate together

Don't Riders have some sort of undefeated streak against Plymouth as well. To be honest despite last weeks car crash I imagine Riders will come back stronger. That being said if that streak was to end today I would also be shocked.

It’s 437 games against a bbl team based in Plymouth. I’ll never accept that’s it’s against Plymouth as there are many clubs from Plymouth that have existed since the ‘streak’ started

Riders must be better than last week surely? Last week’s result made us look worse than we were. At the beginning of the 3rd quarter it had been close all the way through 71-74 down. It was just quarter 4 that we collapsed.

We all know that Raiders / Patriots are the same team. Cant really see this streak being broken tonight…..

The game may not have completely gotten away from us until relatively late but we were poor from start to finish against Cheshire. And our decision to go increasingly small as the game went on just seemed to play into their hands. Bizarre really that we managed to get completely out hustled and basically bullied off our own court by a bunch of 6'5 wings. On paper we were by far the bigger, more physical side.
I'm not convinced Patriots are nearly weak enough to go winless this season but we definitely need a result tonight. Particularly given that five of our next seven after this are on the road. Would like to see Pinson move into the starting lineup sooner rather than later. I've seen enough from him already to believe he's the most gifted natural PG on this roster.

I'm enjoying the game but not the ads. I've read previous complaints about TV timeouts. We've never needed them in all of the time I've been watching the game and we certainly don't need them now. They add nothing to the TV experience. IMO obviously.

Eagles haven't played well again today after a good start and another off night from 3. Very similar pattern to Sharks last week but Flyers have had the quality to put them away.
