1. WIN

2. Durant and Kyrie light them up.

3. Our bench, as usual, demolishes theirs.

4. And last but not least, LMA and/or Claxton clearly outplays Drummond. That last one matters to me because the Lakers are convinced they checkmated us at the BIGS with Drummond.

So far this is NOT what I had in mind.

STOP proving them right.

Big lineups have been **** on both ends of the court.

Kyrie and KD have been virtually useless so far.

Another one of our slow starts verses teams we should kill.

I get that Nash is still feeling out lineups, but KD's best position has been the 4 for the better part of a decade, we shouldn't be playing big lineups to accommodate the minutes of our role players in our clogged front court.

Were just getting outworked right now.

Out rebounded and a ton of dumb turnovers. Have to buckle down and play smarter.

Couldn't get a worse 1st quarter than this. Really poor to allow 33 1st quarter pts to a terrible offensive team like the Lakers tonight.

I hate the ABC crew because you know they all hate the Nets.

Mark Jackson ... former Knick

JV Gumby ... former Knicks HC

Mike Breen ... Knicks announcer

Starting slow is getting consistent with this team lately. Not a good habit to have. Giving these bums some confidence.

Claxton is getting schooled by Schroeder lol. We need to stop doing that.

We need to keep CLax off Schroder, he doesn't have a chance.

Return to Brooklyn Nets
