No Drummond tonight precautionary.

We have to contain Barns tonight. And actually play defense.

No FVV and OG

I'd seriously just consider benching Mills at this point. He's actively killing us out there. We all know he's a defensive sieve, but when he's bricking all of his shots, it compounds the issue.

And if it's because he's just fatigued from being overextended this season, then that's even more of a reason to bench him. Give him some rest at this point.

Definitely a better effort tonight. Taking the ball to the hole aggressively.

Much better offensively tonight.

Bruce Brown continues to be solid as a swiss army knife player.

The defense is still garbage, but Dragic makes a big difference offensively.

Damn Clax!

I think Claxton deserves a spot in any sort of playoff rotation. He can be a straight up beast defensively, and he literally just outran a guard while handling the ball full court and finishing at the other end.

Keeping Dragic is a must. Whatever it is, we must get player who can make plays. Dragic like.

Vaughn has these guys moving the ball, hustling. Claxton has been huge tonight. Blake has been too.

A lot will depend on how Cam can develop. If he can groom himself into Dinwiddie 2.0 I'll be ecstatic.

What a great **** ing challenge. Takes guaranteed points off the board and gives our defense another chance. Nash literally would never challenge, even blatantly missed or wrong calls that were guaranteed to either give us points, or take points off the board for the other team.

I've defended Nash for 2 years...but yeah, he's sucked at knowing when to challenge since like forever.

Rebounding & ball handling is a problem. We have nobody that can handle pressure/traps.

Nets seem to hate their own paying fans and just go through the motions at home. They're a bit more concerned about giving the opposing home team's fans better entertainment for their money.

those 2 defensive three second calls are so embarrassingly bad it hurts.
