Defense optional

Although nice block by Jordan Williams

Gerald Wallace never got the tank memo. He just keeps playing too hard. We're looking kinda good... and I like it, sorta.

I don't know what's harder, rooting for our shots to go out or for opponents shots to go in.

Ugh

As a fan, this game confuses me. Who do I root for?

Had he have this energy early in the season, we would've been competing for a playoff seed...

We remembered we're tanking. :lol:

What a play by Wallace!

and Wallace is limping...did not see that one coming.

Get the feeling Gerald Wallace is now the vocal leader of our team. I think his play is inspiring the rest of the scrubs to play hard. That rebound he had was ridiculous. If Brook were here we would be playing at a high level right now.

Deron/ Green/ Wallace/ Hump/ Lopez and a solid bench I think is a playoff team.

Much respect for Crash, he's really playing hard all the time.

Such character is what the team needs...

3 game winning streak?

Lakers and Portland back-to-back next, not looking forward to either one of those games.

Against a mental midget like Cousins you can get away with playing our scrub big men big minutes put against an elite second option such as Pau Gasol or LaMarcus Aldridge we're going to get eaten alive (not worried about Bynum since like Cousins he's not the sharpest tool in the shed and easily frustrated).

lol, and Gasol doesn't get mentally fazed, or taken out of the game with physical play? That's the biggest criticism of him.

Bynum is going to rape our front line, it's not a contest. Who can actually give him problems?

Humphries? LOL.

Petro? LOL.

Wallace? LOL.

J. Williams? LOL.

Shelden, if he comes back? LOL.

I know Nets fans don't really like Bynum, and I know I've been ragging on him all season, because I wanted to make Lopez seem like the better option for Dwight-related reasons, lol, but the only real criticisms of Bynum are his childishness and his health, and he's been perfectly healthy this year. Immaturity is a legit problem in the long run, but only against other legit teams...it's not going to stop him from killing us.

And I just realized I spammed "lol"...lol.

We can beat Portland. Lakers big men will have a field day on us unless Petro can lock down Bynum :lol:

Unless Kobe decides to go godmode and take 50 shots, we have a chance.

Fixed. Kobe taking a ton of shots is GOOD for other teams...it means he's ignoring Pau and Bynum, and it's Lakers circa 05-07 all over again...and that's a very beatable team.

Completely forgot there was even a game. I'll have to watch it later.

N Ireland Nets · Post #18 » by **N Ireland Nets** » Sun Apr 1, 2012 11:34 am

Was out getting hammered, came in drunk 4am & watched the 2nd half.

Wasn't sure if I was dreaming or not but it looked like we moved the ball well & looked like a legit ball team.

Yeh I was definately dreaming, back to bed in the fetile position for me...

bye bye Nets pick :sniff:

AVERYbigmistake · Post #20 » by **AVERYbigmistake** » Sun Apr 1, 2012 3:56 pm

The whole notion that Gasol is mentally soft is comical. He's a vastly better player than Bynum and there's no argument otherwise.

You can at times question Gasol for not being more assertive but he's a finesse player who picks and chooses when to overpower his opponent. You can't fault a player for not being a idiot.
