@ SA
@ Memphis
@ NO
@ Dallas
@ Houston

vs Utah

Realistically, we're not winning more than 1-2 games on that trip.

Time to start looking ahead to the lottery.

Yeah the schedule is pretty tough, I don't see us making the playoffs either. I see us realistically losing 16 of the last 23...

What is up with all this negativity? on Thursday everyone was praising these guys for the way they played against the Bucks , They lose tonight and everyone is talking like this team is done

I would consider it optimism actually.

And everyone gets praised for how they play against the Bucks.

LoL I'm sure Frank will make some adjustments for the next game, The Nets were in the game the whole time, missed too many open jumpers, RJ was off tonight, Tuesday should be better if everyone comes in with the same mind set of competing hard from start to finish

RJ's back was bothering him. He actually missed the prior day's practice because of back pain. (I hope it's not related to the back spasm's that cost him a bunch of games 2 years ago.)

you look at the schedule and its definitely an up hill battle...it will show very fast how this team can come together...need to find the chemistry and play off of one another...we cant think each player can do their own thing and we can pull W's out against the top teams in the NBA...

I think we can go 3-4 on this trip.Dallas is going down quote me on that.

I think you guys are being a little too pessimistic. I think we could take a couple of these games, this team is good enough to do so, there just has to be some kind of heart being shown on both ends of the floor. Boone played like a sissy last night, Krstic has continued to contribute absolutely nothing to this team, and the bench overall gave us pretty much nothing(i dont cound devin as the bench). The Nets were in that game against the Spurs and imo they didn't play up to the potential nor did they show any desire to win as a group. If we can get a little heart out of some of the roleplayers we can win. What is Doo-I mean Boki's status for next game? Thorn really dropped the ball in failing to land a shooter for some expirings, but i guess there was nothing out there.

If Krstic continues to struggle in the next two games, Diop should start. Devin should have been starting last night, but the Coach is muy tonto.

It's a tough stretch, but let's look at the positives. The Nets play in the East. Atlanta and Philly will probably find some way to keep things close in the standings...
