Preview:
With two games to play this weekend, the Bullets could potentially edge Melbourne for a spot inside the top four – a scenario that seemed highly unlikely only a month ago.
Now at 11-11, the Bullets were once considered a chance for the wooden spoon, but some sharp play from the NBL’s third-highest scorer Lamar Patterson has helped them turned things around.
South East Melbourne, on the other hand, continues to flounder with only three wins from their last 10-games. The Phoenix have slipped into second-last on the ladder, while their 3-8 mark on the road this year also leaves a lot to be desired.
Andrej Lemanis’ side will be hungry for revenge after losing their previous two meetings to the Phoenix. On both occasions the Bullets lost by double-digits, however four wins from their last five home games makes it almost impossible to back against Brisbane.
Unfortunately, you will need to be creative in the market with the Bullets at such a short price. The previous two games between these sides have gone Over the Total, so take a Same Game Multi.
Tip: Brisbane Bullets at $1.32
