Brisbane Bullets Team News
After a completely unexpected road victory over the heavily favoured Melbourne Phoenix, the Brisbane Bullets have a chance to win two successive games for the first time since October. This summarizes their entire NBL23 season, in which the Bullets underachieved massively and will have to make some big changes in the upcoming offseason to revitalize their squad.
Since the Bullets can´t make the playoffs, they will be playing without any pressure in the season finale. With the quality they possess, this should make them a very dangerous opponent in matchups against playoff-contending teams. They already spoilt the party in Melbourne three days ago and this Thursday they will be looking to exploit the woes of the biggest disappointment this year, the enigmatic Adelaide 36ers.
Adelaide 36ers Team News
We are struggling to fathom what is going on with the Adelaide 36ers. In our preview of their clash against Perth we claimed that the improbable loss to the Taipans on New Year´s Eve triggered their recent meltdown, but that can´t be the only reason.
Their unique quality and size can turn any team into a title contender overnight. CJ Bruton can analyze the games tactically as much as he wants, but we played basketball at a semi-pro level, and it seems to us that the 36ers don´t have their roles defined and also lack a real leader on the court.

Brisbane Bullets vs Adelaide 36ers Prediction
A team with Daniel Johnson and Mitch McCarron to lack leadership is truly stunning. To make matters worse, the 36ers decided to sign a new import reinforcement in Ian Clark in the middle of the season, but that didn´t help them either.
We love the 36ers, actually their vintage run and gun style is what made us fall in love with the Aussie NBL, so to see them struggle like this is very disappointing. We said that lack of leadership and undefined roles are the main causes of their downfall this year, but these things are only the consequences of having a poor head coach.
Since today´s game is an absolute must-win for them, we will still back them to cover the spread, but this is not the way to go for them.
