When is Pat coming back?

Just waiting for the 6-8 weeks or surgery tweet.

Brooklyn being 9-12 is crazy. I had them predicted as being one of the worst teams in the league.

Granted they seem to be hitting some unfortunate injury luck as of late, they've got about 7 guys on the injury report.

Easy tank loss. Nets on a back to back traveling from Brooklyn with half their team out while the Bulls have had 2 days off. Bulls will win by 20+

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

They're a lot like us, predicted to be one of the worst but when you're one of the best 3P shooting teams in the league you still win random games.

Like us with Zach, they need to make a decision on Schroder as he's keeping them out of the tank. 31 points on 21 shots vs Phoenix, 31 points on 18 shots vs GS. DFS & Cam Johnson also seem to be shopped being 31 & 28 years old.

I think people are expecting them to really enter the Flagg tank after the older guys are traded, like Chicago (hopefully).

Highest pace team in the league vs lowest pace team on a second night of a back to back missing half their roster.

I wonder what's gonna happen.

Jesus. 8 guys are out?

Be pretty hard to lose this one. Lets get 30 minutes of Matas.

By having a roster that can't defend a folding chair.

But we always suck with expectations. No Coby, so I think who knows. We can still lose.

This would be an incredibly frustrating loss if it were to happen. The Nets have half a damn roster on a B2B. Sure would be nice if our guys tried on D and we didn't give up 125 tonight to 2nd and 3rd stringers!

Play Matas

Giddey is just hard to watch. He has me wishing for Ball the entire time he plays.

Terry and Vooch just iced a screen on back to back possessions, I don't remember Donovan ever doing that before. Did he just catch up with NBA defense from the 2010s?

Terry has length and plays hard.

As impactful as Matas plays, I still dont have any faith in Billy Donovan to actually put him in the rotation once PWill comes back.

Billy is just notoriously bad at that. I also want Julian to play as well. But I bet someone is getting 5 mns or DNPs.
