Game Thread: Nets 112 Warriors 116 Final

vincecarter4pres · Post #1 » by **vincecarter4pres** » Thu Mar 12, 2009 1:42 am

This is the game thread. I am feeling extra lazy and have no desire to make an elaborate thread, especially considering the Warriors tanking lineup has changed like everyday.

If someone else wants to make a better thread, the world is yours, if not, it's no frills tonight.

Let's Go Nets!

Late game... I'll probably catch the end of it, I'm turning into an insomniac though...

the refs have decided this is their game and not the players.

How are the Nets supposed to lose when they have to play the Warriors and the refs?

this posts says how can the nets lose vs a tanking warriors team but also the refs which implies that the refs are on warriors side

I don't want Carter to talk about playoffs when he mails in the game like he's doing tonight

This team needs to go practice post-entry passes. Also Devin is over-dribbling a bit and getting caught in the air too much when he looks to pass.

Also falling apart in the third. I feel like I've seen this before.

Can we please have an offensive set that doesn't start Brook Lopez at the top of the key?

Sean Williams with a good pass on offense. In all my time watching him that was probably the first time he didn't force a shot up from underneath the basket against a collapsed defense. The pass was a bit off but it was the right decision and led to an open three from Hayes. Sean follows it up with a quick rotation on D taking away an advantage GS had for a second. I really hope he remains this focused.

We need to slow down the pace and take the ball out of Devin's hands for a bit to do so.

Dooling has been our best player, BTW.

^I don't think Vince has mailed it in. He has been a victim of a lot of bad calls this game IMO and his shot-selection has been a little questionable but the effort is there. You aren't seeing him get stuck on screens every play like Ellis.

Honestly it just looks like our team can't handle the increased pace in the third. Their D is reading the passing lanes on the secondary passes and we aren't getting the ball along the baseline.

Good god we just can not play good during 3rd quarters.....

refixed

Vince isn't mailing it in, but he still putting up outhouse tapwater of a game regardless.

lurkingobeiscity · Post #18 » by **lurkingobeiscity** » Thu Mar 12, 2009 4:39 am

Again with the post-entry.

I hope to god that someone teaches Sean a pumpfake because those moves he's using could be deadly with one in the future. He also appears to be one of those PFs like Kmart that is more comfortable turning over his right shoulder.

....... NO network just cut out.

I would love Carter to stop forcing his jumper, drive and draw some fouls and maybe an and 1.

I mean, if it isn't falling, put your god damn head down and drive the ball.

I wouldn't mind if Frank benched him rest of the game, what's the point of him being there if all he does is hurt the team
edit: and finally draws a foul
