It's Bogdanovic not Bogdanovic
h. And you have a picture of Teletovic, not Bogdanovic.
We will win this.

This is gonna be another one of those games where they have way better bigs than us. Yes, 55 year old KG and glass Lopez are still better than our front court.
The Nets swept the series against last season I believe because of that.
We can win this but I think it's gonna be 50-50. Only way we blow em out is if we shoot the 3 ball like crazy. Then again, only way we even win is if we shoot the 3 ball really well.
Tucker has to play real well against JJ and Deron Williams has been playing well, Bledsoe will need to quit gambling and actually stick with him this game.
And remember Shaq's advice "All players who have a last name that ends in "ic" can shoot the ball. We need to stay close to all their Euro players.

No more playing down against your competition even though the Nets are better then Jazz&Kings we still need to show up and play Suns basketball for full 48 minutes. If we win the rebounding and turnover stats then I like our chances.

Yeah, that's why I put down the exact date in the thread. And I'm sure other teams have game threads 2-3 days before the game begins.

Don't have good memories of the last time Brooklyn came to Phoenix.

Don't let Joe Johnson have the ball late.

do NOT underestimate Brooklyn. D-Will is looking like a good PG again, though I am somewhat relieved they don't have Livingston anymore. If we don't take control of this game it will be end up more like the game in Brooklyn than the one in Phoenix.

Deron Williams is actually having a REALLY solid season - can't sleep on him.
We're going to need Len against Lopez.
Also CANNOT lose the 3pt shooters they've got out there, Teletovic could drop 15 in a quarter without blinking...

I actually think it's better to create the threads as early as possible. Gives something to discuss until game time. Also good to have them up after hard-to-take losses
In the forum I mod in I used to do it sometimes the minute a game ended.
I've since lost my mod passion though and just get it up when I find time.

Just read the posted article and what caught my eye is this:
Boston (3-3), Detroit (2-5), Oklahoma City (2-5), Minnesota (2-4), New York (2-6) and Orlando (2-5)
Now did they have the easiest schedule to date yet or what, wow. Even lost two of those (Minnesota, Boston), everything other than a solid win would be a disappointment in my book.

the nets havent played well at all... dont let our 4-2 record fool you. we have played pretty poor basketball we just happen to play 6 terrible tank commanding lotto teams and even then we got embarassed by boston and beat by minny in a close game(and has struggled in close games)
in fact, the effort has been so bad that Joe Johnson (they guy who NEVER says anything) has called the team out for poor play and selfishness TWICE already this week publically.
Nets are reeling right now, im hopefuly JJ's words lead to some urgency and give us a spark... i think you guys win this win though in the end.

The Nets need to freaking give us Mason Plumlee. Maybe it could bring up Miles confidence like it did for Kieff.
If Nets offered Mason Plumlee straight up for Len, would you do it?
I'm on the fence about it. On one hand, Len has shown enormous defensive potential. On the other hand, Mason has played so well when given mins....hard to decide.
