Nene, Seraphin starting frontcourt


These are the same post move we saw him working on in practice.

It was puzzling why we didnt see more of this on the floor. You could see he had good fundamentals to the moves.



I think it was just nerves. It seemed like he would panic a bit when the ball was in his hands. Remember he has only been playing 7 years.

What have they said?

Just being honest and accurate about the referees. For example, when the ref overturned the "charge" on Mack, Fratello immediately pointed out that it was correct to overturn the call, the Nets player was inside the circle.

Even with this win, the Nets still have more wins than us so the tank is still srong.

Nate's right, though. Tanking won't really be necessary. We're most likely not getting Davis and past him, Beal is 2nd on my draft list. We should be able to get him with the 6th or 7th pick.

I'm actually just having fun watching my team play well right now.

Nene certainly looks like he came here with the right attitude. The Nets suck so i am not going to read too much into his big numbers but the effort was obviously there from the start.

Mason's confidence is incredible. He had no business taking that shot, but nothing matters after it swishes.

Mason has been so incredibly hot this March. An open 3-pointer is like a layup for him. Just call him LaMarr Mundane.

Seraphin has 12 points on 6 of 7 shooting in 16 minutes of action. 5 fouls though. That's why it's probably not a good idea to start him.

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

Kevin's jump hook is right with Nene's.

How much better this team looks! It's hard to imagine if I had not seen this myself.
