extremely tough game for us to win. We haven't beaten San Antoinio since game 4 of the 2003 Finals(Damn!!)... If we prevent from ginobili from getting hot this game should be close...

I flipin HATE the Spurs.
Seriously if there's one upset win I would love for us to get its this one.
I hope Harris will be enough to erase this 9 game losing streak against those guys.

Yes.
Frank's assinine strategy for this game is to start Marcus and give Harris a bundle of minutes.

Boone too soft today, he looks confused. D on Duncan is not bad, but his offense is off.

Nachbar blows. Im very glad he is expiring he is just too inconsistent. Offensively you dont know if he is going to look like Hedo Turkoglu or Brian Scalabrine.

I love Devin Harris but he is going to need to reign his 3's in a little bit. He definitely has a good shot, but he will be better served to stay in control a little bit more. This team still desperately needs a big man with an offensive presence.

Nachbar has now missed 3 wide open rhythm jump shots. The Mike Miller move would have really had a huge impact on this team.

"Dookie" Nachbar is playing like absolute garbage and Carter is playing like a woman. PUT THE BALL ON THE FLOOR, AND TAKE IT INTO THE HEART OF THAT D AND MAKE PLAYS

Krstic needs to be forced back into that role. Call some plays for him!!!

If you don't call plays for bigs, force the guards to give up the ball, none of them will ever provide offense.


Go NETS!

I don't expect win, but a great and close game game by us would be moral victory and a jab against Kidd and Dallas for giving up on the Nets and giving up on Harris, respectively. Help encourage everyone at both sides.

Come on Vince!!! Harris!!! RJ!!! Diop!!! Boki!!! Hassell!! everyone else

At least keep it close, Spurs are on their 2nd game of a back to back.
We should have more gas in the tank than they do.

VC got his hops back ^^

Ask and you shall receive. That "woman" is clearly too good for you. Without a real dominant big we'll never be in the class of a team like the spurs. I do like this new look nets team though, just wish we coulda traded boki for miller. We'd be so much more dangerous
