O/U we lose by 10?

This will be a LOSS. Kidd actually has these guys defending and showing pride, can't say the same about the Nets right now.

Hollins needs to either bench Lopez and move KG to the C or adjust because The Greek Freak is going to tear us apart at PF. We are about to get a taste of the small ball system that we ran last year.

Over. this is as close to a sure thing loss as it gets. Kidd is a competitor and will want nothing more to beat us. he has that team playing their butts off and they have the size to match up with us.

We have consistently come out with piss poor efforts. the team being called out resulted in 1 quarter of inspired basketball followed by 3.75 games of complete and utter trash and pathetic effort. this team will roll over the second milwaukee makes its first big run.

boo birds and bronx cheers tonite for sure.

Bucks 111 Nets 98

Yep. Their bench is going to destroy ours quite easily also.

yes, especially since they should have game wrapped up by midway 3rd, and their bench scrubs will see plenty of time.

the worst part is, even if milwaukee did embarass us, and even if kidd does take shots at us after the game, it wont do anything to inspire or motivate this team. this group has basically proven they cant work and their ceiling is jsut over .500 beating up on tank commanders.

feel bad for hollins, think he has good intentions for this team but they were quitters and dogs long before he got here and you cant teach an old dog new tricks

After all the cash being spent on our players, its the bucks we fear....

Good god..... Being a nets fan is harsh. I mean I know Mirza had a tough life growing up but this sh*t is up there too lol

I'm going tonight, figure the $14 tickets were worth the price of admission to boo Jason Kidd. I was hoping they would unretire his number in a pregame ceremony tonight.

This game will be a **** ing calamity.

You have players on this team that flat out do not give a **** and that was evident in the game against Miami.

Hollins can't make a turd smell like potpourri.

It seems the games most the posters expect us to win we lose, so I'm almost thinking this could be a game every poster expects us to lose and we win.

The Bucks are coming off a B2B and flew in from Milwaukee.
They beat the Knicks which had to be an emotional game for Kidd and thus the team. This is going to be even more emotional and in a charged environment.

IMO this is the most important game so far this year. Were going to learn if this team has heart. If they do they won't let Kidd win in their house and they need to end this losing streak. If they lose this game, expect some changes in the line up (looking at you Brook).

I'm gonna go against the grain and say we win this.

The only positive right now we have to look forward to is Bogdanovic. He's alot further along the NBA learning curve than Mirza was.

10.5 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.2 assists on .59TS% from a rookie is terrific.

While we are playing terribly, I can easily see the circumstances forcing the players to realize that they need to get themselves together.

I'm leaning more towards a close win more so than a blowout loss, but with the Nets you just never know.

i would say cut lopez's minutes, but plumlee is playing horribly too

Mirza l AK l Jefferson
KG l Jordan

Let Lopez and Plumlee sit until they are ready to play real ball.

Or....maybe just play Lopez close to 40 minutes and encourage him to take 20 shots and see what happens. Maybe it would help shake off the rust and get some of his confidence right now. Much of his issues seem to be about confidence right now. Hollins doesn't trust him and I don't think Lopez trusts his foot yet. He can't keep being timid about things.

Would be nice if we still had another big man like Blatche that we could throw in and try out.

Lopez and Plume have just been atrocious. Brook needs to get traded before he injures himself again and his value plummets. I know he doesn't have much value now, but he has more than he would if he were glued to the bench with an injury.

Jerome Jordan has looked really good out there on both ends in spurts. He seems to be slowly earning a spot as the alternative to Brook and Mason.

Jason Kidd said that he believes the Nets wanted him fired after a slow start: "Shows you the kind of people you're dealing with."

Jason Kidd on the way he left: "It shows you the type of people I was dealing with (in Brooklyn)."

Andy Vasquez (@andy_vasquez) tweeted at 6:14 PM on Wed, Nov 19, 2014:

Jason Kidd said that we used to count how many times he picked up the clipboard. "Do you guys do that with coach Hollins?"

Andy Vasquez (@andy_vasquez) tweeted at 6:42 PM on Wed, Nov 19, 2014:

Jason Kidd:" As a player you get traded & as a coach you have the opportunity to get traded... So we move on. Unfortunately one side hasn't."

Please take his jersey down from the rafters. I don't care about bad PR. He is a living, breathing piece of s****
