The Brisbane Bullets snapped a three-game losing streak over the weekend. However, their starting lineup has been one of the best performing lineups all season.

The Bullets’ starting lineup, according to RealGM, has been one of the best performing starting fives this NBL season. Only the Perth Wildcats’ starters have a better total point differential.

However, the fact is that Brisbane is currently second last in the standings with three wins, while averaging 5.4 points a game less than their opponents. The Bullets apparently have the talent to perform well, but something needs to change.
