Great win.

Still worried about our defence though... Over 100 points against a team without two of their best players (both imports) in Bratton & Prezzie Blue. What would the score have been if these guys were fit to play?!

Glad to get back to winning ways. Disappointed to miss the game but couldn't get back to leicester in time to make the coach. Sounds like a good game. Hope we can go on and win both games next week. It would really kick start our season.

Last night was a classic example of a game between one team missing 3 starters and the other team trying to rebuild their confidence after 2 losses last weekend.

There will be a few lines on ridersbasketball.net later, all in all its an away win and 2pts in the bag, job done.

Lets all laugh at the BBL website - Part 28!
Riders are shown as being in 5th when their position is clearly 6th (two teams in joint 4th) and Everton (in 9th) are tied with...wait for it....Everton(joint 9th). Does nobody check this stuff before its rolled out?

Good win on the road after the disappointing results last weekend. The league is very competitive this season so any win you are going to have to work for.

Before saying anything about how we played, I thought the refs were poor (again) on Saturday, not only wrong calls but a number of decisions which were hard to understand that were more of notice.

As for the game our shooting was much improved from last week with the threes raining in at one point so was good to see our offence back at its best again. As for our defence we still have work to do, but if we can do that then we are a top side.

I’m sure once Worthing get Bratton and Prezzie-Blue back though there won’t be too much between the teams.

On to performances- Tack was the standout again, he ended up with 36 and 10 (bearing in mind he had to sit down for most of the 4th due to some 'questionable' calls and had already got 35 of his points by the end of the 3rd!). Bradd had a good performance and got his shooting form back as well as a good number of rebounds, Jason had another big game, Adam was impressive again and showed some good shooting (another part of game that has improved), Barry had his best game yet, everyone else played well too.

Big weekend coming up, if we can win both then I think it could really get our season going. It would have helped to have had Isaac for these double headers but hopefully Tack playing big minutes won’t be a problem. Isaac looked ok walking on his ankle at the game so maybe won’t be out for as long as first thought?
