Over 9000 fans turned out to watch the NBL Dragons hammer the Tigers by a whopping 28 points on Saturday night down in Melbourne.
It was a strong performance by the Dragons and the crowd.
Sadly the night before when ex Kings coach Brian Goorjian took his team to Sydney only 1000 fans turned out to watch the Spirit go down by a measly 5 points.
The Spirit have shown they can mix it with the best and improve each time they take the floor.
What does this say about sport in Melbourne v sport in Sydney?
Is it just the NBL Sydney sports fans don’t like or is it the newly named Spirit not receiving the support hoped for after the collapse of the Kings?
