If they go with:

Joseph/Wright
Ross/
Carrol/Johnson/Caboclo
Patterson/Thompson
Biyombo/Noguera

Stiill bench (aka first lineup) looks strong enough, also imo Carrol should play to get as much minutes as possible before PO, heck even 3rd stringes do have some potential...Will see what lineup will they play today.

I can't imagine Brooklyn losing this last game. Out of guilt alone, they will play hard for the home town crowd--a little gift to the fans, something to cheer about and make their subway ride home more light-hearted after so depressing and downtrodden a season.

So, Go Phoenix!!

Guys, it's a done deal.

Nets are done.

Remember when Brooklyn was supposed to be a sure bet to pile up the meaningless garbage time wins at the end of the season?

And then they go and give us the biggest losing streak in the league down the stretch, with all but one loss by double digits. May God bless them abundantly in 2019.

What do the Clips have to play for other than HCA against the Raps in a finals match up that will never happen? Heck, if they catch the Raps they lose their 2nd round pick swap rights with BK. I expect a lot of Austin Rivers.

Seriously. They recently lost by 20 to this:
L. Babbitt 33:12
D. Cunningham 31:52
O. Asik 04:01
J. Hamilton 34:00
T. Douglas 26:48
A. Ajinca 29:03
T. Frazier 37:21
J. Ennis 28:47
K. Perkins 14:56 (!!!!!)

The only question left is how much better can they do after they max Rondo this summer.

Yes I do remember---but I also recall that they won 3 of 4 against good competition just prior to this losing streak. I would not put do-re-mi on the final game, but I suspect they will bring off a win--for their fans.

Maybe, but I think a 60 loss season is worth celebrating regardless.

Sweet!! Give me a scotch

If we take Sabonis with the Brooklyn pick give me the whole bottle and keep the glass.

They did the smart and not-emotional thing to shut down Lopez and Young. No point in risking them get hurt just to spite our pick. I'm impressed Marks and Brown made the right decision.

Great point. I hope Doc has someone smart enough in his front office to remind him of this. I don't have much faith in Doc as a GM.

I'm really going to spend a night watching the Raptors scrubs face the Nets like my life depended on it. What a time...

2Mas · Post #974 » by **2Mas** » Tue Apr 12, 2016 6:49 pm

Really pissed about Dallas.

IF i were a betting man, I woulda bet big on utah last night.

I hate Dallas man. Bitter cause Rondo - no doubt. But they shoulda gotten us like the 12th pick. Instead it's gonna be like 18th. Tighttttt.

& I think both teams will rest their best players (LAC & TOR). Which I think is good for us because PHX has more talent then BK.

Hopefully BK just takes this L tonight & we don't havta worry about PHX at all.

You mean the same fans who had the 4th lowest attendance in the league? The guys who don't show up? The Nets are going to finally win a game for those guys?

I drink Glenmorangie 10 because I can't afford the real good stuff

I can get 1.75 handles for like $60 bucks

I also am a huge quest fan.. Well their first 3 albums. Saw them like 6 times..usually with De La.

Lagavulin > Laphroaig for me. More well rounded. I was crushed when I heard the Phife news however. Was lucky enough to see Tribe live before it all ended.

Gotta go with Cognac over Whiskey.
