Any word on the official starting lineup?

It's interesting that the Pacers are starting Bogs and Thad, two players the Nets were willing to move away from.

In the starting line ups, I think the Nets are better 1-4. But, the Pacers have a huge advantage at the center. I think the Nets bench is also better. The Nets should win this one.

Only 1 more day.

(Bit of irony considering the result of that Pats-Jets game last week)

its in indiana, opening night. they very well coached and will play 110%. if we win that says alot, they dont have alot of talent but neither do we.

i think we win but a loss doesnt suprise me at all and it will be closer then people think

RHJ good to go for the opener?

I'm guessing his hand injury wasn't a big issue?

I mean I agree, bad team or not it's a road game and they are well coached.

I wouldn't be disappointed with a loss, but would be with a blowout.

But I wouldn't be the least bit surprised with a win.

Keep it close hombre's!

The Nets play every game with the intentions of winning....and the development that you hate so much is the reason why RHJ looks like a capable starting PF.

nope, he's fine and ready to go. He and Demarre Carroll have been by far the heart and soul of this team from what we've seen so far. can't wait til tomorrow night

Nice i scooped him up late in my fantasy draft & i'm hoping he was ready to go. I love RHJ at the 4. I think a lot of those Arizona guys should be trying to be more like him & not so scorish. Stanley Johnson & Aaron Gordon too. Be the shawn marion type do it all both sides not try to score 20ppg. Him lavert russell .. you got a nice group over there.

But hey rooting for you guys now. Good coach & system. It's nice to not have to worry about you guys winning. We caught a break w/ Lin being hurt so much. This year you'll be way more fun to watch.

Goodluck fellas.

Only 1 more day.

Stealth tank? Or they have fallen so low? Or they think they can survive with four weak defenders and Turner?

I imagine Sabonis and Lance will play quite a lot tho.

Anyways, FINALLY~~~~~~it's here!

Matchup to watch: Dipo vs DLo. Both smallish SGs, likely to be top scorer of their teams. Style very different.

Can Booker/Jar contain Big Al?

Their bench isn't bad. Our bench mob needs to take care of business. Would be interesting whether Kenny plays DRuss with the 2nd unit or it would be a wholesale sub like last game.
