Well there it is, we have the Conference Finalist decided in two contrasting games.
Surry Hills Peeps got off to a cracking start and hawkie mammoths just found the pace of the game too frantic going in with only 6 players and went down 92 - 63. It was a valiant game by the mammoths, who enter the off season looking at a good rest and then a solid training camp and solid season in Season 25.
Game 2 saw Noidya overcome a Crunch Timing home team in be high in the 4th quarter 93 - 85. Having the leagues leading scorer (Jun) back and a surging Aussie SF in Webb working together like they were teammates all season, overcoming a late injury to their starting Center Xiaohao, Noidya were just to young and polished for be high to get by. be high enter the off season with a dire need to retool before next season, their management team severely need to an audit of basketball operations and identify how they possibly can keep their long serving and successful club to the playoffs 14 seasons in a row without taking the ultimate prize.
In the other games of the night we saw the mighty Blues maintain the power in the Div with Toonie Purple Cobras absolutely romping home against The Shotblockers 113 - 49, and Hansbroughs Hurricanes with just too much run against Aussie Thunder 128 - 94.
It looks like the Big 8 will be well intact going into next season and the Great 8 will see a plethora of new faces.
The Finals series is going to be a cracker, both teams will be at full strength going in, may the best team remain standing by Sunday 15th. Game one is 6pm this Tuesday at KVWN Channel 4 Newsdome.
