Cairns Taipans versus South East Melbourne Phoenix!! The Cairns Taipans' core strength lies in their highly disciplined overall defense, anchored by the inside-outside defensive axis of Hamilton and Achuil. They will undoubtedly focus on slowing down the game's pace and limiting the Phoenix's fast transitions. For the Phoenix, facing the Taipans' extremely aggressive defense on the road, the stability of their outside shooting will be severely tested. The match is expected to evolve into a positional battle, with fewer offensive possessions for both sides, and every score will be hard-fought.
