Here we go, we’re starting to get the whistle now. That should hopefully disrupt the Nets a bit.

Didn't you hear? He got injured 3 years ago so he can't play back to backs.

Paolo doing what we need - take it right at them and make the refs slow it down.

Nice adjustment by Coach in this quarter. Nets are all guard/wing with no post presence whatsoever. This always the team to keep guys in front but gotta finish the possessions with rebounds.

Of course Nets get the first whistle on their first drive

Sit Paolo. He is so slow getting back on defense.

That was an awful shot by Houstan

Sure would like it if we'd guard the corners...

Missed layups Paolo and Mo don't get back on D. Ditch the zone.. bring Goga back in and put Suggs on Bridges.

This is miserable lol. So many missed layups, they make everything or get a rebound.

They're not going to beat the Nets at their own game they've gotta be a little more methodical in their play.

Exactly, we have to slow the game down, execute, secure the boards. This is on coach.

Y’all we need a miracle on this game lol.

I feel like we need Goga out there for the presence on rebounds if Isaac isn’t available. Paolo is playing soft and uninspired.

Lol yeah let's take out the only guy on our team that's not playing into exactly what BKN wants.

Why are we taking shots early in the shot clock? BKN wants to run so we need to do things to slow that down. Early shots are not it unless they are drives to the hoop with a whistle.

Magic are playing to fast and rushing everything.

There's plenty to criticize about how we're playing, but mostly this just feels like a case of "This really isn't our night".

If they don't cut it to at least 12 by half, I'm gonna call it a night and get some sleep.
