NETS VS PACERS 8PM EST YES 

Post#1 » by NetsWorld » Fri Nov 25, 2022 5:16 pm

Thoughts everyone? I personally believe this game
will determine whether Nets turn the corner or not…..Yet. Not willing to throw in the towel but getting to .500 would give this team extra motivation. If not, IT WILL demoralize them. I am going with the opposite of optimism and going to be realistic. This team lacks heart and I don’t think will get ir done. I predict Pacers beating the Nets. Call me crazy but this team is too inconsistent for me to be confident in them.

For an old soul like me, this game is all the more interesting.
Over half of the ABA championship banners are owned by these 2 teams.
Actually, the Pacers were the Celtics of the ABA back when I was a young bumpkin.

If the Nets don't come out aggressive we will get blown out. Indiana is not a joke

In all due respect to the Pacers who are having a terrific season, the Nets team they played in those back to backs a month is not the same. We have a new coach, Ben10 is getting back to his old self.

As far as injury's I am not sure about Yuta playing tonight.

It is going to be a challenge to keep these guy from getting second chances off offensive rebounds which has been killing in the last few games. Really hoping Joe can get something going. He is way better than his play thus far this season.

This is a good barometer test for this team. Indiana is solid but not as good as their record suggests (very soft schedule). these are the games we need to win if we want to consider ourselves a top team.

We've shown glimpses so far, however good teams can consistently go on small winning streaks, we haven't proven that yet as you never know which version of the nets will show up.

Smart move on the subs there by Vaughn by bringing in Morris instead of Mills. Morris is bigger and can still shoot adequately from outside. Size and shooting; finally getting away from Nash like habits.

Seth !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

35 point first quarter on the road......nice

As far as Joe being in or out, I'm not sure. But what choice does JV really have? Something is awry.....

One of the best first quarters of the season, offense looks good out there and what we envisioned when we saw this team on paper.

The ball is not sticking with Kyrie but I think he's overpassing, if a 50/40/90 guy like him has an open 3 he should just shoot it

Finally playing within the system instead of trying to imitate KD. The offense looks amazing so far, but since Mills/Harris came in, Indy gets two buckets in a row.

Patty and Harris can't stay in front of anyone right now.

Joe was looking better defensively earlier in the season but he's regressed badly.

Joe has zero lift on his jumper. When Yuta comes back Harris or Mills will get benched

Harris needs to stay in the gym and pratice 1000 threes a day. We know this guy can hit it, but his game has been off. Hopefully he turns it around like Shamet did two years ago. I don't like Harris' stroke either.
