Cairns Taipans · 3 notes
Jack McVeigh and Keanu Pinder are "very ill" and being isolated from the group, Cairns coach Adam Forde said. Neither got out of bed for 48 hours, yet both played about 20 minutes. He said they "shouldn't have played." Illness has also hit Forde and the team manager.
did a good job pressuring our guards.
Forward Keanu Pinder brought the ball up for the Cairns Taipans against Illawarra, with all five players spread out around the three-point line. Coach Adam Forde said the switch came because Illawarra "did a good job pressuring our guards."
it wasn't anything negative that Reyne did.
Jonah Bolden started the second half for Cairns Taipans over Reyne Smith, moving Keanu Pinder to power forward and Bolden to centre. Coach Adam Forde said it answered Brisbane's 22 rebounds off their own misses, not Smith: "it wasn't anything negative that Reyne did."
