There is no doubt that Melbourne and Sydney compete in a lot of things in recent years from which should be higher up the world’s greatest city chart, which city should be our nation’s capital instead of Canberra to which Basketball team performs better, Tigers fans remember those mid 2000’s when the Sydney Kings came up against Melbourne in the finals and the honours were pretty much equally shared as they taken titles from each other, victories were made sweeter because the Kings were coached by Brian Goorjian and defeats were bitter for the same reason even if he did play for the Tigers at the beginning part of the team’s NBL journey.

Melbourne United have decided to take on the Sydney Kings with a message at Hisense Arena telling United’s players to ‘Go Hard Or Go To Sydney’, there is no doubt that Sydney when they discover this apparent message of inspiration will be either not amused or amused enough to come up with something of their own, perhaps Sydney will just let their Basketball do all the talking when the two sides meet in the near future for they are considered just as formidable as United are.
