i would like to see devin stop taking these threes and either take a couple of dribble and shoot a rhythm mid range jumper or spot up there and catch and shoot from mid range

Harris taking stupid threes?

Well, at least you can say that the kid is trying to fit in with the rest of the team!!!!!

in the second quarter when we went small, i woulda liked to see Sean come in for RJ, not Trenton. They had Warrick and Darko in there. Especially the way our guards were getting beat off the dribble, we needed someone to deter shots.

RJ finally having a bounce back game...but then VC is off wtf.
VC has been awful this game so far. Can't take nights off. Let's see if he gets head head right in the 2nd half.

Boone with very limited minutes. He had some soft plays early & maybe Frank got fedup with it.

overall another ugly game to watch.

It seems the offense seems to run quicker w/ Marcus then Devin even though both guys tend to pound the ball a bit too much for my liking. 11 assists between the two of them in the 1st half though !

VC needs to wakeup on both ends of the court 2nd half & it will be a cakewalk, if not this will be a nailbiter. Any hope of confidence moving forward the rest of the roadtrip the Nets need to have a very good 2nd half & kill the Grizz.

Hey Frank, what's the point of playing Vince if you use him like he's Hassell, actually not since Hassell get more post ups than Vince, even when midgets like Navaro, Conley or Lowry are guarding him. BTW, are we supposed to be thrill that Nets are tied with Grizz at the halftime, are things that bad?

It's not the coachs fault when the players doesns't use the opportunity , Vince just hasn't even tried it . He just shot jumpers .

VC was in foul trouble a bit in the 1st half...I expect him to be more aggressive in the second half.

jcrack32 · Post #48 » by **jcrack32** » Thu Mar 6, 2008 2:38 am

Finally VC getting more aggressive and going towards the hoop. Step up on defense now!

I hate it when Vince just takes the first open shot he sees although no teammate is under the basked and it's still 15-20 seconds on the clock .

Terrible set...get the freaking ball to Vince!

jcrack32 · Post #52 » by **jcrack32** » Thu Mar 6, 2008 2:51 am

Freaking ayyy..great last play! We got 2 PGs...you would think one of them might get the ball to VC.

He's off? How would you know? He's not touching the damn ball, he wasn't involved in one offensive set until halfway through the 3rd quarter, not one. You think it's his decision to give up the ball and then run into corner and don't do nothing, you really do? But you're right, let's watch Harris or Marcus dribble the ball for 20 seconds than take a contested jumper, that's way better.

Serpo · Post #59 » by **Serpo** » Thu Mar 6, 2008 3:02 am

Oh come on everytime he had the Ball he just took a poor shot and missed , that's off in my mind .

I wish he would had taken a shot every time he touched the ball, maybe he would had developed some kinda rhythm at some point. It's way better than touching the ball 4 times per quarter and shooting once every 5 minutes. He was given opportunity to take advantage of his mismatches in the post twice all game, twice, is that his choice? Tell me who calls plays to set up players for post up, midget in suit.
