This should be a W with no LMA, Batum, Kaman or Matthews...but this is the Nets so it won't be easy. RoLo will probably play Brook well and Lillard destroy our guards. Hopefully AA is back to defend their AA.

They seriously cannot afford to lose this game, with another drubbing coming up against the Hawks on Wednesday a lot rides on getting the games where we have a chance. We need to post wins vs. Portland, Milwaukee, and the Magic for sure, and that's on top of winning one against Washington or Chicago.

didnt they not just win but blow us out last time we played them without batum and LMA?

i view this as a probably loss either way.

washington game will be huge and we HAVE to win the bucks and magic games.

Think they had Matthews, Barton, and Kaman and weren't OK to rest players. Were also a different team than that game in November with KG and Mirza playing.

maybe. they are still a better team even without lma and batum. unless they kegit laydown i see a loss.

Nets better be fired up for this one.... Threw the ATL game away, got some rest and hopefully refocused after their longest win streak of the season.

I expect Hulk to continue and go at it against Robin... with no Batum or LMA, we really shouldn't be in trouble if our guys are playing smart and good basketball... but we all know that's a big IF.

What to expect from this game:

1) Nets jump to a 10pt lead with 4 minutes left in 1st quarter.
2) Jack comes into the game for Dwill then nets are down by 4 with 6 minutes left in 2nd quarter
3) Then it starts all over again in the second half.

ugly start defensively. need to stop that pnr. brook looks lost

dwill looks aggressive

Brook has to dunk that.

were getting good looks but not finishing

ugh... these missed bunnies are killing me

Damn Markel is smothering Afflalo

If this is the game we're gunna play, this is a game we will lose. We gotta start hitting those easy shots, we should easily have the lead right now

LOVING his defense on Afflalo and Lillard, could be key to winning this game
