    It's on now. HT Aus 43 - 37 NZ.

    Three game series in usual playoff format. First team to win two games goes to Beijing, the loser to play additional qualifying tournament in Europe next year.

    Australia won 79 - 67. NZ were horrible in the 3rd QT turning the ball over and struggling to score only 9 pts. This may be decided in game 2 as the Kiwis look very lethargic and they don't know where they can find solutions on offense. I hope it doesn't get decided until Game 3. I have a ticket to see that here in Brisbane.

    Australia NT is not real and strongest line-up against complete N, Zealand real line-up.

    If Australia send a real line-up the Aussies sweep and win big margin of 20-30pts.

    If they send a full strength line-up and yeah sure they can sweep the series but winning 20-30 points thats too much... although it could happen...

    yup sort of... but New Zealand players are more exposed to international basketball... I would say they're in the same level but NZ always get the upper hand whether we like it or not...

    New Zealand have a semi-pro league called the New Zealand National Basketball League and they're as the same level as the Philippine Basketball League... although, most of the members of the NZ national team either played in the professional Australian National Basketball League or in the Euroleague... therefore, NZ can beat the Philippines anytime...but doesn't mean they're as strong as Australia... and it doesn't mean also that the Philippines can't beat NZ because RP can beat them...

    You don't know about their skills, moves etc. NZ players are in Australian leagues or NBL teams benches. They're more smaller players in NZ like Pero Cameron positioned @ center is 6'4. Onlly Sean Marks is the tallest player in NZ NT. They are underated or role players in NBL Australia. Otherwise, other players played like Mick Pennisi. Philippines can beat NZ and NZ can beat Philippines.

    WTF! Pero Cameron doesn't play at Center he's a @#$%ing Forward... Sean Marks is not even Center.. he's a Power-Forward... and they're not under-rated since New Zealand like Singapore have their own team in the Australain NBL... its the New Zealand Breakers... and yes Philippines can beat NZ in 3 out of 10 but NZ can beat the Philippines in 7 out of 10... whether we like it or not... in terms of professional basketball we got the upper hand but in terms of international basketball they got the upper hand...

    you're getting me wrong! Cameron is Powerforward-Center position.. Oh look NZ Breakers are worst record like Singapore Slingers. NZ led by US imports and a Australian. Singapore led by American and Australian but Singaporean players were bench warmers. Your prediction chances that team can beat is indefinite.

No doubt, the Aussies still dominating in Oceania.

    Bullshit! Pero Cameron is just a @#$%ing Power Forward not Center... Sean Mark, who is @#$%ing taller than him is playing @#$%ing forward in the NBA... and yeah of course the NZ Breakers sucks... I live in NZ and I watch their games I know that!... but the Tall Blacks is way @#$%ing different compare to the Breakers...

    Of course Australia dominate in Oceania (duh!!!!)... I watch their @#$%ing games every @#$%ing year... NZ made a fluke in 2001 but that would never happen again!...

    About the Singapore Slingers, I only mention them because NZ also have a @#$%ing franchise in the Australian NBL not because their good...

    Besides, the way RP and NZ perform internationally recently, I believe NZ will win whether you like it or not... they made it to the last two World Championships and the last two Olympics (probably more than that) while RP never qualified since 1985-86 (more than twenty @#$%ing years... blame Graham Lim btw)...
