As estatísticas de Raulzinho Neto na NBL desta quarta-feira (4) ficaram assim: 10 pontos, 8 assistências, dois rebotes e um roubo de bola — tudo em cerca de 15 minutos de quadra.
O Brisbane Bullets bateu o Perth Wildcats por 109 a 104 na Nissan Arena, na oitava rodada, e o armador brasileiro foi titular. Ele atuou só no primeiro tempo, mas a diferença construída ali sustentou o resultado.
No primeiro quarto, o Brisbane abriu com 11 a 2 e terminou na frente por 37 a 22; Raulzinho já tinha seis assistências, mais do que todo o time adversário no período. A conta dos pontos chegou a dez e a das assistências a oito antes do intervalo, com 63 a 43 no placar.
Segundo a NBL, o brasileiro precisou ficar de fora depois do intervalo, e o relato oficial do jogo não explica o motivo. Mitch Norton passou a conduzir a armação.
Mesmo sem ele, a vantagem da casa tocou 27 pontos no terceiro período. O Perth então reagiu: encostou em 81 a 68 no fim do quarto e, no último, chegou a ficar a dois pontos. Três bolas de três — duas de Taine Murray e uma de Lat Mayen — devolveram o controle ao Brisbane, que perdeu as duas parciais finais (25 a 18 e 36 a 28) e ainda assim venceu.
Pelo time da casa, Tyrell Harrison terminou com 16 pontos e cinco rebotes. Murray e Mayen anotaram 14 cada; Hinton fez 13, com oito rebotes. No Perth, os números de Kristian Doolittle foram 24 pontos, nove assistências e sete rebotes; Dell'Orso somou 20.
Foi a segunda vitória consecutiva do Brisbane, que vem de 96 a 89 sobre o Adelaide 36ers, no domingo (1º). O time está em quarto, com seis vitórias e cinco derrotas; o Perth é o sexto, com cinco e cinco. O jogo também contou para a Ignite Cup, competição paralela com classificação por quarto.
