Six games during Round 6, and surprisingly the two matches decided by single-figure margins having gone the distance involved the New Zealand Breakers.Corey Webster was listed in the piece last week as MIA. Fair to say he showed up in Round 6, scoring 37 points during his two outings and hitting the game-winning shot against Perth Wildcats.Melbourne United, meanwhile, continued their slide with a fifth consecutive loss. They parted ways with former MVP point guard Cedric Jackson through the week, and United fans are eagerly awaiting the return of Chris Goulding and debut of new signing Casper Ware.We have become accustomed to having at least one high-scoring game during each round, but we had a different story in Round 6. The highest score was 87, while each winning team posted between 84 and 87 points.So who and what stood out the most during round six?Dynamic DuosEvery side needs a go-to player they can rely upon, but teams become increasingly easy to defend against if they have only the one option. The presence of a one-two punch can make life miserable for defending teams, and we saw two instances during round six.Brisbanes Torrey Craig and Jermaine Beal took over against Sydney Kings in the round-opening game, compiling 34 points, seven rebounds and four assists. The Kings had no answers as the Bullets waltzed away with the win.Then it was the Kings turn in their second match of the round, against Melbourne United, with backcourt buddies Kevin Lisch and Jason Cadee shooting the lights out to post a combined 56 points on 70 percent shooting that included a remarkable 10 three-pointers.Speaking of lights out ...Black OutBrisbane and Cairns Taipans are locked in a tense battle, both seeking their second win of the round; the Bullets lead by eight points with 1:37 to play in the fourth quarter and, BAM, the lights go out.The Bullets had controlled the tempo of the game, but the Taipans were still in with a shot when the contest was abandoned because the power could not be restored.Victory was awarded to the Bullets, but the Taipans have lodged a formal protest and the outcome of the game is yet to be confirmed.Running Out of LegsFour of the six victors also led at halftime and three-quartertime.Adelaide and New Zealand went against that trend, leading at the end of every quarter apart from when it really counted.New Zealand led the Taipans by three at the final change before they surrendered the lead with around nine minutes to play, and they were never able to make it back.Adelaide led Illawarra Hawks by two heading into the fourth, before scoring a measly 11 points down the stretch to lose by double-figures.No I in HawksThe Hawks have one of the top-three scoring averages in the league, and they do so with an incredible balance.The Hawks have only three players averaging double-figure points per game (every other team in the league has four, with Melbourne having five) but theyre currently riding a two-game winning streak.The unselfishness within the group, and the willingness to find the open man, is beginning to pay dividends as they have assisted on 65 percent of made baskets in their past two games.We might be seeing the Hawks finding their wings and getting ready for take off.Gazey CamAndrew Gaze is an iconic figure in the NBL. He is one of, if not, the greatest players ever to grace the Australian hardwood, and his star continues to shine.The passion he used to exude on the floor has now shifted to the sidelines, and his antics have not gone unnoticed. The league needs to consider a Gazey Cam as watching him during the game can be just as exciting as following the play that is unfolding.This little clip is just one snippet from the weekend action; bear in mind the Kings won this game comfortably.?
