NZBL Projections, Stats & Analysis
Auckland works a miracle
Tuatara needed a miracle to advance ahead as they were down five points with less than nine seconds. First, they had a layup to go and then a miracle heave went in as a three-pointer to force the OT as Rob Loe played hero again. Loe has scored 20+ in two straight games and has been the biggest influencer on the offensive end lately. The team has a lot of size and can end up posing big threat for the Nuggets.
Otago’s defense bails them out
The Nuggets have surely capitalized upon the elite defense they had built since the beginning of the season and it reaped awards during the Playoffs. They have not allowed teams to go past 80 many times and that makes them a surefire defense. Offensively, Billy Boyd has carried the load while Sam Timmins has been a double-double threat
