Nets gotta be riding high after taking down GSW. They also blew us out back in December. Going to be a tough one.

I think we have only three games against Brooklyn this year, so we need to win tonight to maintain the possibility of winning the tiebreaker. The third game against them is back in Charlotte, later this month.

Big game for both teams. I dont think we win this one... im hoping its at least close late and joe or jack has a chance at a final shot.

you guys play hard. we play with the least effort in the league. we dont have enough talent to beat decent teams who play hard. Luckily thad and markel brown have broght some effort, but not sure that lasts or overcomes the(lack of) efforts our top plays bring.

I'm thinking this si a close game you run away with late or a game we are never even in.

Mo williams is one of the bigger net killers of the past decade. im terrified of that dude

Cheers Proky.

This is going to be an interesting game no doubt.

May the best team win!

Just returned from the Nets board. While there I learned Joe Johnson is going to physically overpower MKG in a blowout win. Some also hope Johnson plays some at the four in order to overpower Zeller as well.

Oy.

I'm officially off the Cliff bandwagon altogether.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Oh for ****'s sake.

What are the odds this isn't a one-off? Cliff's insistence on giving Marvin more minutes is as consistent as it is bewildering.

Johnson is evidently their starting PF judging by their last game, starting 3 guards, JJ and Plumlee. So i guess this makes sense?

or we could just go with Mo/Gerald/JT/MKG/Al and leave Marv on the bench so he wont have to chase around a guard
