Hopefully our back court is good to go, but the back ups have been solid as well if not.

Does our medical staff suck or something??? Honestly. All of these guys out were listed with shorter time periods then they just keep getting pushed back.

Garland was supposed to be 1 week, we are going on 2 weeks and he's not back.

Love was supposed to be 3-5 weeks and that timeline has almost doubled as he is still out.

Delly had a concussion 7 weeks ago and he's still out. Patrick Mahomes had a concussion in the NFL and is going to play 1 week later.

What the heck is going on?? I want to see these guys actually play for crying out loud

I wouldnt be surprised if they are in no rush to bring anyone back when they are in the business of developing a deep rotation which looks to be smart given how well back ups have played in their stead.
Dotson could start easily on half the rosters in the League which nobody would have thought before this season.
Love will probably never be back imo

It's a crazy season and it's happening all over the league. There was a short training camp and shorter pre-season. They're cancelling games due to Covid. Delly being out for this long is a bad sign. He might not come back.

Our defense is a lot better, but we miss Garland and Love offensively. If Nance starts from here on out, our bench is going to have to outscore the opposing team's bench. Especially if we trade Drummond, and if I'm being honest, I'm getting a little wobbly about trading him.

Is it me or does Allen look like he's out of shape.

Never heard anyone say that.
He could use strength, but he can play big minutes no problem.

Regardless, glad to see him playing well tonight. Never saw Prince play this well tho as a Net.

Great game guys.

Kyrie Kurse hit the Nets. He must not have saged the arena. Sexton lit him up like he was sage.

Allen and Prince both looked great and I hope they do well for you guys. Fro was one of my favorite Nets, and while I didn't care for Prince he at least tried to do what he was asked.

Thanks, us fans are just dying for the team to get healthy so we can a sense of what type team we have. Maybe get a little continuity in our rotations. We're out hustling teams, and with the improved defense, we're stealing some games. I do worry if we don't get healthy soon the clock will strike midnight once the tougher part of the schedule starts.

Collin is easy to like. While he has limitations(size, facilitating, defense), he doesn’t take plays off and just keeps pushing; very Cleveland.

I think his defensive limitations are overrated. He has done a decent job against 1-5 this season no matter who he is guarding he is disrupting their offense consistently
What I like is how he drives into defenses stops looks like he is fd but he then makes a dime while the defenders are just standing there like duhhh

Aye Clevland just wanted to give Sexton his due. I've been hard on him in the past and he proved last year he's a baller and it's carrying over.

Jarrett Allen was as billed, but Prince was much better than billed. It'll be interesting to see if that holds up.

Talk about trial by fire for Isaac. I think he ended up guarding all 3 of the Nets stars at various points. I'm still not sure how Collin ended up on KD at times, though.
