This is a nice test for those that think our good play is just cause of a weak schedule. We matchup perfectly with the Clippers. They also don't play a backup center so Ben won't have to deal with any big bodies in the 2nd unit.

No excuses for losing this game without Kawhi. But who knows.

So much of a heavy load on KD. Need JOE HARRIS to make some shots.

I got a feeling this going to be one of those games that reality sets in. Hope I’m wrong,
If we get this, momentum and energy will build.

I think we are seeing the Nets as team starting to gel. There were some beautiful moments with Ben taking three steps with the ball and dishing to either Joe, Seth or Patty. This is one of the best passers in the league and some of the NBA's best shooters. If we can get more consistent high level performances from these guys people are going to take notice.

I know there is a lot of Clippers fans and other hoop junkies that are really frustrated with Kawhi and his injury. People are calling for him to retire. I can the points on both sides. But I though by now he would be back. The season is still young though. I hope he makes it back.

The Clippers are still a good team without Kawhi.

Those are the habits that good teams develop and build; and it builds confidence in fans hoping their team wins. Nash was like a coach lost in the forest hoping KD would bail him out and take them to the promise land. This is what Kevin wanted. Good habits and team oriented ball and accountability, and yes he did mean to say Kai but he didn’t want to throw him under

Nobodys denying that. But with KD we SHOULD win.

On paper.

One of the things I love about Vaughn is he doesn't play KD as many minutes as Nash did.

He gives him a break even if it leads to the other team going on a run. It helps the team learn to play without him and keeps him fresh in the 4th.

I was just about to say this. These guys have talent at every position and Paul George is in his bag right now. This will be a good test to see where this team is at.

I think the last three games his mins are still too high. We need to cap him at 34 mins at most.

Sumner giving Reggie fits lol

Joe on PG?

Damn Sumner better get paid right now. These bums will be coming for him in offseason.

MGrand15 · Post #15 » by **MGrand15** » Sat Nov 12, 2022 9:22 pm

Shots aren't going down but we are running the hell out of our offense now. We've gotten a bunch of good looks and the ball is hopping.

NetsWorld · Post #16 » by **NetsWorld** » Sat Nov 12, 2022 9:23 pm

The defense is good so far, offense is where we are struggling. Hopefully these shots start falling

MrDollarBills · Post #17 » by **MrDollarBills** » Sat Nov 12, 2022 9:27 pm

The numbers on this starting unit don't lie.

Sumner gives us defense, speed and can hit that corner 3.

I just think Kyrie is going to come back and f*ck this all up

Here comes Powell.

Why is Curry guarding George?!
