Facing the new look Brooklyn Nets, who are going with this starting lineup:

PG Dinwiddie
SG Bridges
SF Finney-Smith
PF Johnson
CE Claxton

Then Thomas, O'Neale, Curry, and some bum who used to play here off the bench.

Hearing Embiid is questionable. If he doesn't play I fully expect a bad loss. If he plays I still expect us to choke this one.

Time's yours...

I wish Doc gives Reed some more time. He was ass in the first half yesterday but great in the second half.

You're gonna need him too because Claxton/Ben is an athletic pairing at the 5.

That wing rotation the Nets have now it's gonna be a test for Harden and Maxey, so i want to see what they do about it.

Also looking to see if Tobias remembers he can play Basketball

Agree but I think Reed was solid all game yesterday. Even the first half, he gave us what we need. Hopefully Morey and Doc have decided to roll with him since we're going nowhere with Trez.

Excited to see McDaniels. Really hoping he can be that rangy secondary rim protector that can hit open 3's that we've sorely needed forever.

I think he was good at the beginning but committed dumb fouls that allowed the Knicks to get the advantage again. This is the entire issue with him, he has good instincts but it ends in dumb fouls.

It seems Doc is rolling with it tho, or at least that was what i got from his press conference after the game. Maybe the office went to him and forced him to play Reed or something because it seems super random for him to say that Trez was bad for a time now.

The main issue is back to back and that might be enough to give the nets edge, not to mention their length.

Need some McDaniel to offset that.

Melton, this offseason, needs to put like 5 guys below the rim and finish 100 layups every day lol

Saw that coming. Back to back against length/quality wings is a recipe for disaster for this team.

Similar start to last night except that instead of not being able to defend, we can't score.

I think they were booing Harden at the FT and just coincided with Ben entering, they were even chanting quitter at Harden
