GT: Nets vs. Spurs

Starting Lineups:

Nets:
PG - Deron Williams
SG - Anthony Morrow
SF - Travis Outlaw
PF - Kris Humphries
C - Brook Lopez

Spurs:
PG - Tony Parker
SG - Manu Ginobli
SF - Richard Jefferson
PF - Tim Duncan
C - Dejuan Blair

Tonights going to be Deron Williams debut with the Nets, so lets give him his first loss in a Nets uniform tonight. We haven't lost a home game in almost 3 months and the Nets have lost 9 straight games to us at home, so lets keep those streaks going tonight!

The key to winning this game is going to be stopping Williams and Lopez. This is Williams first game with the Nets and he hasn't had a lot of pratice with the team. So i'm guessing they're going to run a lot of pick and rolls and keep the offense pretty simple. So TP and Hill have to do a good job of fighting through screens and not letting Williams get into the paint. Last time we faced the Nets Duncan did a great job of defending Lopez, he's going to need to repeat that performance tonight.

Neal and Splitter will be out for this game. So that means Anderson's going to get some burn tonight.

Go Spurs!!

Blair is showing how to take advantage of having good hands, body control and being agressive. Of course, when playing with Manu, Tony and Tim..

Great game by Manu tonight. He wasn't that good shooting, but he was great driving to the basket and scoring or passing. This team is only special when Manu's on court.

Deron Williams is such a great point guard..

Good win. Manu was great, Blair played well and Hill gave us a huge boost off the bench.

No Neal as well. He's been killing it lately.

Return to San Antonio Spurs
