Any word on Deron and Crash?

We'll need huge games from Lopez, JJ and Blatche.

Let's hope that the guys can fight through the injuries and put Indiana down. The top of our division and the #2 spot overall in the east is within hand.

:D keep up the good work, PJ

Crash is out, and NetsDaily says probably for an extended period of time.

Deron is still questionable.

I obviously hope Paul George is ok, but I also kind of hope he sits out this game...I don't know if we can beat them without Wallace and potentially without D-Will as well if they still have George. It's not even his offense I'm worried about, it's his defense. He locked down D-Will a couple of times last year, and I think he'd give JJ plenty of trouble as well. He's a big reason why they have the #1 defense in the league.

Roy Hibbert really comes to play against us. He's had pretty good games against Lopez in the past but Lopez usually holds his own against him as well. Should be a good match up to watch.

Love to see bigmen battle it out, especially two younger ones.

We really do need D-Will this game. I hope hes able to play.

I don't think we win it though. They have been playing great, and I don't think they rely on Paul George as much as we'd like to think.

Would be a huge win though. Brooks, JJ, Lopez needs to have big games. Especially Lopez, his last 2 games have been sub-par.

As others just said, Lopez has always had problems with Hibbert specifically and Brook has played like ass on offense the last game or two, this is a nice measuring stick game for him, let alone the team.

And yeah I think we're doomed without Deron, unless Watson and Ty can just play mediocre instead of awful and JJ takes over on some 09 **** and drops like 37 and 9 on good efficiency.

Lopez had one bad game, not two.

Against Philly he only played 23 minutes and had 13 points on 6-10 shooting.

I hope we get a Toko sighting since Crash is out. Luckily, Keith Flogans has been really good with the starting lineup. Indy is a tough team from top to bottom, I hope we can grind this one out.

I don't care who plays, the Nets need to continue the streak...I would love to see Lopez and Blatche combine for 40pts and 20rebs 5blks

Looking forward to Lopez this year putting to rest Hibbert > Lopez...That starts with outplaying him one on one...Hibbert's head games and recent back spasms have continued to slow his progress while Lopez is having a superior season to Hibbert this year, though they both can suffer from not knowing who they are mentally on the court...

Regardless, Lopez has always had more skills all around and I have never understood this argument...PJ needs to get him a minimum of 20 shots, multiple touches in a possession in the post and push him to reset every chance he gets to maximize his position vs Hibbert and get him in foul trouble...

Hibbert has a wrist injury or something, so I wouldn't worry about him posting up. It's thrown his hook shot off completely. He's most likely only going to score a significant amount of points if Lopez lets him get under the hoop or he gets lots of offensive rebounds.

Plans changed…contrary to what Frank Vogel said pregame last night, I’m told Paul George traveled w/ the team and is in Brooklyn.
