nice post~
come on Netttttttts

LOL excellent game thread anyway we're up for a tough game, gotta take advantage of that hole in the C spot and post up Lopez a lot tonight.

Its payback time Nets! Last time they met at South Florida, Miami won thanks to a huge comeback in the 4th quarter.

I say let D-Wade shoot jumpers 'till kingdom come. I'd rather see him beat us from the outside than him taking it to the heart of our defense as well as the 3 refs.

We NEED to come out with the same intensity we did last night. The heat are coming off a huge win for them against the Lakers so you know they're feeling good. Devin and Vince have to play like they did yesterday. Be Aggressive! Yi HAS to play well again and the bench has to be productive against the Miami bench because they have players who can put he ball in the basket. We have to post up Lopez because they don't have anyone special in the front court. All in all...PLAY HARD AND WIN!.

great gamethread...back to back baby...lets go...

Won't be around for this one.

I'll DVR this one.

Hopefully I can keep the streak going with the game threads.

Thanks for the props.

Let's go Nets!

Man i hope thats a picture of Yao reverse blocking Anthony, and not a rebound.

Brook should abuse these guys...

Yeah, that same strategy really worked well for Avery Johnson.

great start by Hassell

Hassell big so far..

Dallas allowed Wade to get to the paint and the latter got the benefit of the doubt the whole series.

Anyway back to the game, Miami is leading NJ 85-81 with still 9 mins. in the 4th. Vince so far with only 8 fg attempts. I want to see him take over this game.

Wow another bs call in Wade's favor. Reminiscent of the Dallas-Miami series.

d whistle spins and falls and they blow the whistle.. awesome

Another disappointing loss at home. The way we're playing at Izod, I'd rather see the Nets play at the road.

That was bull, NOBODY touched Wade!

He did his spin-travel move and falls down without any contact and OF COURSE a Nets player gets tagged with a foul, that is pure BS...

On a side note the next time anyone has to ask why I'm "hating" on D-Fraud just think back to this play and the many more like it that D-Fraud gets away with. As good as Wade is there is not a single star in the league - Kobe and Lebron included - who gets away with / gets as many calls in his favor as the league created D-Whistle...

That was ridiculous... If the Nets got the same calls as Wade they'd have won this game easily despite how poor they were (mainly because everyone on the Heat would have fouled out).

Yeah I know, instead of shooting one more free throw than Miami (31-30) they would've had like 20 more, because we all know what an amazing team the Nets are, after all, their amazing 13-12 record before tonight (which was identical to Miami) clearly proves it.

Get over it... its called a bias, more specifically, a confirmation bias. In other words, your belief is Wade gets more outrageous calls than any other superstar all the time, so anything that confirms that you will agree with, and anything that doesn't you will deny. If you see another star player, like Kobe, get a bad call his way, you will say "Finally, some justice", or "Well, the officials make mistakes every now and then". If it happens to Wade, well, "I knew it, he always gets the worst calls", "The league is rigged for D-Whistle!".

EDIT: All that being said, it was a terrible call, and at a terrible point in the game for it to happen too. But it was just one call, everything else in the game was fairly ho hum, or no worse than some of the ticky tack stuff called in Harris and Carter's favor on the other end.
