Payton Pritchard was a bucket away from outscoring the entire Nets starting 5.

Apparently did a segment for the news about Mike Gorman that is airing soon.

Oh that was some fella I kinda recognized but already forgot his name. From the Today Show I think? Not a basketball person normally, was just watching the game and they had him come on the broadcast for a bit.

So like a Nets player basically ?

Midway through the 2nd we were 52-17, first time in my life that I saw a pro basketball team triple up another like that.

Then we got complacent and everything went to hell. Underwhelmed.

Super boring game, but the fans at the Garden had a great time cheering for the bench.

I blame JB, he got selfish and didn't give it off enough.

Just destroyed them!! Had them looking like those car lot inflatable things, back and forth back and forth! They should have thrown in the towel but the towel might have scored on them too.

Blowouts aren’t as entertaining to me but I’ll take all of them they can muster on the road to 18! Just get it done!!

White ate and left no crumbs, Korny was very good Again, and Pritch did his thing (caruso who?)!!

Walsh did his thing at times on defense! Needs a lot of seasoning but i like the bones! Give him 2 seasons and he’s going to be an excellent 8-9 man! I told you, I’m on this one like white on rice (S/N; I prefer yellow :lol:

), he’s going to be so good eventually!!! I know i pumped up JD but looks like he may have to do it for another team but u I still believe he’s going to end up a hit as a high level backup in the league (floor)!!

Man I want this team to win a title so bad, they deserve it for how they've worked and improved over the years. Brad deserves it, everyone deserves it. Need to be healthy in the playoffs, no one is beating us in the east, the only other real team is Miami.

West situation is very interesting, going to be a bloodbath in my opinion. All I know for sure is that the Celtics are the only team in the east with a realistic chance of beating a western team.

Walsh was pretty solid. Rough whistle, but he always seemed to be in right spot defensively. Game is way too fast for him and he’s a stick flailing around, but you can see a player in there when the body is built up - and he realizes that and stops avoiding contact so much - and when the game slows down in general.

This team doesn’t deserve to go to the playoffs

The White and Pritchard vidoes both show:

Active screening and other teamwork.
Talent plays against attentive defense.

The screeners that I particularly noticed were Kornet on a couple of Pritchard shots, and Walsh a bit before the 3:00 mark of the White video.

Nice to see Pritchard have a MONSTER game (for him), clearly All-NBA level, and Hauser play like a DESERVING starter, especially with Brown out for his hamstring and Al out for his toe. White played like an All-Star starter.

Since the Celts won by 50 it seems like the Nets were paying attention.

For whatever reason, the offense flowed a lot better. Not gonna take the bait and offer an explanation why.

Who smokes the big cigar?
