The Sioux Falls SKyforce are back in the CBA Finals again. This will be our fourth (4th) Appearance in the CBA Finals (1996, 1998-1999, 2005). Hopefully we can win our second CBA Title. But Rockford has a a very good team.
Sioux Falls and Rockford are the two Most Stable Franchises in the history of the CBA. Rockford has fielded a Team since 1986 (19-seasons) and Sioux Falls has been in the CBA since 1989 (16-seasons). These two franchises have been the two most dominant franchises over the years.
The Rockford Lightning have been to the CBA Finals 4 times (1982, 1987, 1989, and 2002)
The Sioux Falls vs Rockford rivalry has over the years been a very unique one. These teams get up for each other. The Top Three Coaches to ever coach the Lightning Franchise are: Cazzie Russell, Henry Bibby, and Mauro Pannaggio (all time CBA Wins Leader). And the Top Three Coaches to ever coach the Skyforce are: Flip Saunders, Morris "MO" McHone, and Now Dave Joerger. I am really forward to this series, it will be a trip down memory lane for me as these two franchises go head to head. Alot of CBA History with these two.
GOOD LUCK TO BOTH !!!!
