After such a hard fought game against Patriots, normally I would say we have no chance against Flyers tomorrow but tonight's Flyers game hasn't even tipped off yet. Hopefully they'll have tired legs by the end of tonight's (hopefully) quadruple overtime.

In theory I like to think we should make light work on Giants having seen their recent form and should be using this game as training ahead of Tuesday.
Since Giants were unable to beat a 6 man Eagles squad who played 24 hours before away last time.
Now we have more depth to rotate its hard to see us losing this.
Although now that I said that what are the chances Manchester suddenly come out playing like the 76ers.
Hope for a good game today and no injuries.

Pretty tough test today given how we struggled against Patriots for three quarters of the game to establish and maintain a lead.

If they turn up like they did on Friday night I can see Riders winning that one. As for the other games obviously Lions defeating Sharks again unless they decide not to bother and send a 3rd rate team to Sheffield. And I think Surrey will fancy their chances after a win last night and with Bristol probably annoyed that they let they game against Cheshire get away from them. Should be an exciting Sunday of British Basketball. |

Giants are really missing Anderson's points and defence. Can't see them overturning the deficit against Eagles.

Who were the commentators today for Manchester Vs Newcastle? They made for a nice change.

Ghastly start by Riders. Can't shoot field goals but can foul. Free throws? Awful.

Wow, can’t believe the scorchers score having only seen the 1st quarter. Some great stat lines - none more so than the ever mercurial Wang.

Can't really believe we held on to win a cracker of a game. Allen was excellent but Mackenzie rightly won MVP award. Gritty, resilient performance and won despite giving away 32 free throws to Glasgow.

Wow! Cooper hit 100% from three point range with 6 shots. Wang also had a brilliant performance.

Great result from Eagles although Scott has still to impress.
Having watched most of the game on Youtube, I wonder if Eagles are deliberately missing free throws so they can score from the rebound - it happened suspiciously often.

Eagles are as good as anyone (London aside) when they have 8 players fit. Every Eagles player apart from Spencer is playing really well. |

Very risky strategy although I have seen it used but very rarely and then it's blindingly obvious. |

Yep Spencer needs to up his game but needs more mins to do so really and well will neighbour ever be fit!!! |

If he doesn't play again this season he might struggle to get signed up for next season. |
