ADELAIDE FLY AS BRISBANE LANGUISH 
  
 
The Adelaide 36ers will roll into the Hungry Jack’s NBL Finals with a full head of steam after demolishing a disappointing Brisbane Bullets by 22-points at Titanium Security Arena. 

Adelaide was a class above the beleaguered Brisbane as the 36ers claimed their third successive win, 105-83, in the club’s last game of the regular season. 

The instant offense of Majok Deng (career-high 20 points) helped create a 19-point buffer by the half and with all 12 Adelaide players on the scorecard by the end of the match the tempo never let up. 

Travis Trice (20 points) was a bright spot early for the Bullets before struggling in the second half as the Bullets faded badly in a disappointing end to their season.

The win confirmed home court advantage for the 36ers in the semi finals and the wooden spoon for the Bullets. 

The Hungry Jack’s NBL regular season winds up tomorrow with a triple-header as Melbourne hosts Illawarra, Sydney plays New Zealand and Perth takes on Cairns. All three games will be broadcast live on FOX SPORTS 503, starting at 3:00 PM.
