Brisbane Bullets v Melbourne United
1. Law and order
Vic Law is now firing on all cyclinders. He put in two dominant displays last round to fire Brisbane to back-to-back wins over Sydney Kings and Cairns Taipans.
2. Scotty's slump
United's star man Scotty Hopson is in scarily bad form. He has 13 points total from the first three games, shooting just 6/31 from the field and posted zero points in the most recent game for the first time in his NBL career. Can he rediscover his mojo against the Bullets?
3. Nathan Sobey v Chris Goulding matchup
Should be an enthralling battle between two excellent, high-scoring shooting guards – especially after Sobey’s surprising snub from the Aussie Boomers squad.
