With an uncertain future ahead, every game looks like a struggle for this season. While sitting and watching all 82 games may be painful to the eyes, here a few games that every Nets fan should watch.

October 30 - Orlando Magic at New Jersey Nets

The home opener brings former Nets Vince Carter and Ryan Anderson to the Izod Center. The Magic look to make there way back to the Finals with the veteran Carter as he finally is back in the spotlight with Orlando.

While all the hype is on Carter, Anderson will look to continue what he started in New Jersey as the Magic are a perfect fit to his long range, long body type play. This game could be the beginning of the biggest mistake for one team but which is it going to be?

Yeah it's becuase their fans are so annoying. They think their team is so good when they're not.

I think the obvious top games to watch are vs orlando, dallas and san antonio. but the other two im really looking forward to seeing is the opening game of the season for two reasons. to see how this team plays and to see that bobby simmons isnt the starter and have preludepunk send me a qdoba gift card! the other game im looking forward to seeing is nets vs pheonix. i was really looking for the nets to draft earl clark so i think it will be fun to see how well he plays and go up against his former teammate and fellow rookie terrence williams.

I actually love their fans. They're not fairweather like a lot of Knicks fan (that's bold because there are still a ton of true Knicks fan) or any big team through the years that were awesome, then sucked, then got awesome again (see: Boston Celtics or ANY New England team in ANY sport for that matter). Raptor fans gave us extra crap because we stole vince from them. I think they also started getting a little more pride when they started to turn the corner a few years ago then got bitter after they stunk up the place more recently. Their hearts are in the right place. At least they have more than 15 people that give a damn about them. I'll never think there more irrational than Knicks fans and, to an extent, a lot of Cavs fans are turning into (I live with one so I see it, but I also blame that situation on the media as well). If you go to Raptor game in Toronto, you'll have a great time. Also, that city OWNS!

I still have no idea how the hell this happened.

Along with most of the teams mentioned, I'm actually looking forward to the games at The Rock in the PreSeason.

At this point, I give the edge to the Nets when comparing rosters. The Knicks really haven't made any moves, and they still have over-priced vets like Curry and Jeffries. And the big question remains- whether this group can, or will ever gel coherently.

I agree with rosters on paper. Where I'm on the fence is the fact they have D'Antoni and we have Opie. Opie is the Herm Edwards of basketball. You get a lead then you drag out the game as long as possible and hope you hold on. I guess I come from a different school of thought than Opie and the Herm. Maybe Frank can get an analyst job he doesn't deserve like Herm did.
