The JackJumpers have won all three meetings this season, twice by margins of 16 points or more. While Tasmania are not typically a blowout team, the way they match up against Sydney has consistently produced comfortable results.
The blueprint has been simple. Slow the pace, lock down the perimeter, limit Sydney’s shot attempts and force the Kings to execute in half-court offence. Across the three matchups, Sydney have struggled badly from deep while key creators have been neutralised.
Even when Sydney’s bench has produced big numbers, it has not been enough to overcome Tasmania’s defensive structure and composure late in games.
