Another 30 point quarter for the Nets and we're down by 8 to one of the three worst teams in the NBA.

We suck.

Westbrook and KD are right there in the paint and Young was just backing down Russ how does he get away from BOTH of them and get a OREB?

These things are mind blowing.

Because he is a PF that was being guarded by a PG in the post.

We don't suck, but there's never been a more frustrating, depressing Thunder team since the Sonics moved to OKC.

No one contested for that rebound. He was backing down russ then he kicked it out and a Nets player missed and he just walked to the rebound.

Russ and KD didn't even try boxing him out.

I agree but I think it highlights our shortcomings as a contender from a more-than-casual fan's perspective. It's entertaining.

If you haven't noticed, I've been doing my best to highlight the good. Especially from WINGLER and Waiters.

This is a classic your-strength-is-my-weakness game. We are without Adams and Collison is old. Ibaka can't leave Young to help with Brooks. We will win this game because they will get fatigued before we will. I have faith that Donovan & co. will make the neccessary adjustments at halftime.

Russ just needs to stop shooting the ball man.

He started off 5-7 and is now 5-15....

Below 40% for the entire month.

Enes needs to be able to guard Lopez. That's the utility he CAN have defensively.

Exactly. Idk why he is shooting so much. We are more successful when he sets up plays for other guys.

And he continues to shoot, did you just see the shot he took?

It's frustrating.

He throws up a garbage shot then he is on the floor and we are stuck 4 on 5.

Watching Westbrook just drive aimlessly is frustrating. It's like he's driving just to get a foul. Wrong mentality right now. Drive and kick. Wait for the opportunity. You've got two bigs down there.

And 8 minutes into the third quarter, the Nets have added five points to their lead to go up by 13.

We're going to lose to one of the three worst teams in the NBA.
