Danke.

BTW I really like Bogut. Has decent offensive skills, can finish w/ both hands. Works hard on the glass & has the physical strength & length to be a good defender. Also a team player. It's too bad the rest of the Bucks really don't mesh with his game. A team like the Raptors with good ball movement and shooters at all position would really fit Bogut's game to a glove.

Also, Yi had a good preseason and started the season ok but the times I've checked on him he's really struggled. I barely noticed his presence today. Even if he's not getting the opportunities on offense w/ his body & athleticism he should be getting some hustle points & be a better help defender.

This Nets team (even before Harris) is fun to watch. Now w/ Harris it's FUN. Bucks defense is stinky so we'll get a quick test of this new Nets team with back-to-back games vs Spurs. Can't wait !!

yeah dude, they've still got the 4th quarter to look forward to. Seriously though, cut it out with the Kidd bashing you just reach and reach at every minor opportunity to unnecessarily bash him and it's getting really old.

Bitte, Nets spielt sehr gut.

I love Bogut, he's my favorite Buck. We just can't really get this whole offense to work. I think it can work, with redd, mo and bogut but we need to have the right coach to implement the right system.
Yi is just too young and inexperienced. He can only hit open jumpers right now and I think he's lost a lot of confidence. He was good earlier in the year but that's when teams were leaving him open, he rarely gets those open shots anymore. He needs a lot of work.

GG, Bogut's a baller.


Yea I think he can really flourish playing with a pass first PG.

I think he should get 6-8 more touches.

The first couple were, sure. Once it gets to be something of a constant then it's not really anymore. Maybe you think you're just making good jokes at it but it's just really unnecessary at this point. Just move on, its like you have some personal vendetta against him, cool it dude.

Awesome game tonigh. I can't remember the last Nets game thats been this exciting. Couple of things from today:

1. I was impressed w/ Marcus today. Thought he had another great game. His shot was off but his 8 assists and 0 turnovers are what really matter. His confidence is soaring even with Harris coming over. I like that....its a good problem for the Nets to have. I still don't think Harris and Marcus can play together for long spurts but I would love to be proven wrong here.

2. Swift took over SWATs minutes tonight. Hopefully SWAT uses this as a way to step up his game and get his minutes back. Like I said before, only way Swift gets minutes here will be if SWAT regresses.

3. Diop will continue to get his minutes with his great defense. A 7ft. who can man up the middle like he does...we need to sign him. I don't think there will competition per se between him and Kristic. Kristic is still our most important big man. We should continue to start Kristic and give him about 20 mins each game...post him up more though! Force feed him a little if necessary. Diop and Kristic can both get their 20-25 mins a game.

4. RJ and Vince played very efficiently today in only 39 and 35 mins respectively. Gotta keep Vince's minutes down.

5. Harris couldn't have played any better than he did today. Awesome start to hopefully a new era in Nets basketball. Gotta keep it up cause we gotta a nasty stretch of games coming up.

Hey pugsley, no offense, but the only thing "personal" here seems to be your feelings towards me making a joke about someone who wiped his arse with you and the rest of us who are fans of this team. Excuse me for having fun celebrating the new direction of this team (and making an utter ass out of myself in the process, I truly did think that was the end of the spurs/mavs game lol)... is this really life or death to you? I have nothing personal against any of these people who entertain me on the basketball court, regardless of what happens. :wink: relax! things are looking up for this team and its fans!!

I can't believe Avery Johnson sat out Kidd in the last 30 seconds... what an idiot... i don't care what the reason, didn't they get kidd for the clutch and mental toughness? we all know Kidd can at least knock'm down in the clutch... Mark Cuban must be p*ssed off...

Well, apparently Kidd WASN'T on the court in the clutch last minute of the game. Odd. Cuban's probably wondering what he made the trade for if Kidd's not gonna be there.
