We lucked out last matchup with Duren getting hurt 90 seconds in. Definitely need to see more Diabate in this one...again very weird how he had 2 straight double doubles then his minutes went down...

This game will tell us a lot about whether the guys view Chucky as an actual leader or if his corporate middle management “1% better every day, every day is an opportunity to grow” fortune cookie self improver spiel rings hollow. At some point you have to show you bring something to the table on the actual court I would imagine

LOL In all seriousness though, it's probably still too early to demand results but this will be extremely relevant if there is no progress by the end of the season.

Obviously Miles is fed up with Lees trash after last game, pretty strong statement to sit out after that game.

He was limping badly during a lot of the Nets game. Definitely a leg issue likely the knee that he injured earlier in the year vs Detroit. He was doing the half waddle-run thing down court and rubbing his knee during timeouts.

I of course have full faith that our amazing medical staff will handle this with transparency and grace.

I haven't checked - who wants to guess how many rebounds this is? I'm going with...14?

Never was the most observant

If it's 12 that's surprisingly few IMO

I like what Diabate's brought to the team this year and I've enjoyed his rebounding and hustle, but this center lineup is still ghastly.

90% of Lamelo's shots look ridiculous, I still don't get used to them going in so much.

hes truly different

Fast break one-on-everybody three by Melo followed up by a stupid foul swiping away for a steal.

One of the stat nerds needs to do a dive into his foul tendencies

Lamelo has to learn that just because you don't get an obvious call you can't act like a 4 year old.
