RABOBANK KNOCKOUT TROPHY
The clash of the heavyweights in the repechage section of the draw saw Reserve Bank Magic Milers beat Macquarie Generals 165-144, while a close match saw ANZ Incredibles edge ABS Moving Averages 68-65. Both teams go through to round 2 in this section.
In the knockout section there were also some close matches, with BT Dominators beating 5 Minnett KMs 38-31, RunSM beating Transport Trainers 74-72 and PWC Fasttrack beating BOC Pacers 14-4, while newcomers Deutsche Bank Dashers advance to round 2 courtesy of a bye, due to there currently being an odd number of teams in the competition.
