| Only six games were played in round 13, with no Wednesday night game played. The first match at Challenge Stadium was a low-scoring slog, with the lead see-sawing through the night. In the end, it was the 26 points of Shawn Redhage that was the difference between the two sides as the Wildcats took out a 80-75 win over Townsville. Melbourne Tigers were the hottest of favourites to take out the Victorian derby against South Dragons. In the end the Tigers got up, but it was far from a cakewalk as the Dragons continued to defend tightly and refused to let the Tigers run away to a big win. Chris Anstey led the way for the Tigers with 36 points, while Dave Barlow landed 25. A virtuoso display from Adam Ballinger was the catalyst for Adelaide 36ers' comfortable 104-77 win over the struggling Singapore Slingers. An amazing 46 points and 10 rebounds from Ballinger ensured the 36ers' finals hopes are still very much alive. The West Sydney Razorbacks' promising start to the season has all disappeared now, and the dismal mid-season run continued when the Pigs were comfortably beaten 105-86 by Cairns Taipans, the Razorbacks' 4th loss in a row. Sydney Kings hosted traditional rivals Wollongong and were expected to win comfortably. But the Hawks hung in there early, and it took until close to half time for the Kings to establish a lead. Import Dontaye Draper was best for the Kings, but although the leader leaders ended up taking the game it wasn't a convincing performance. The offence of the Brisbane Bullets was again dominant as the Bullets ran a 125-93 win over the NZ Breakers. Ebi Ere with 42 points again led all scorers, as the Bullets continued their high-scoring run. |
