GM 68: Utah Jazz (.657) @ New Jersey Nets (.415)

What's even funnier is Sloan pulled a Sloan.

He's never been able to draw up any 3 point plays in a timeout. Infact, I'd be willing to bet he just let the players draw up something in the timeout because he's incapable of doing so.

AK's 3 point attempt killed us.

How dissapointing... poor defense gives it back to the Jazz... a team that averages 93 PPG had well over a 100...

[karizma87]

rj sounds like a ****...oh wait he is one

[FJS]

Me cago en la puta, vaya mierda de derrota!!!

You expect him to pass the ball to Boozer who is being double and triple teamed,

At least once, yes. Forget the fact youre not at all right, Boozer wasnt double much less triple teamed at all down the stretch. Add in the horrible decision to mismanage the clock and pull up on that easy fast break, and this was a pathetic performance by Deron. Plain and simple.

[Duiz]

how do you beat the Boston in Boston and lose the Nets the next day... terrible stuff.

You might want to adjust your prediction in the other thread now.

AK lost us this game. His horrible 3 he took and then he raced down to the other end and sent RJ to the line. Just awful.

No, a 48-29 rebound differential is what killed us! Especially when 20 of their 48 were offensive boards. Their second chance points kept them in this game and cost us a game we should have easily won!

nets commentators admitting carter fouled memo on the final play lol

[kerplunk]

OT: You guys gonna watch the rematch of Marquez vs. Pacquiao?

I hope Pacquiao knocks Marquez down.

GO PACMAN!

[karizma87]

this team was playing 100 times better D w/out AK

[JTSPEED]

OH NO, the sky is falling!!

One good defensive game won't excuse your lameness in the last 4 months. Although of obvious disabilities, gets the job done.

Thanks Magoo for your showing in the boards..

Just got done watching the game. I think the NBA needs to ivestigate this ref crew as part of the Donehy scandal.

On those last 5 or so offensive possessions of the Jazz, the Nets were collapsing in on Boozer in the paint. He had at least 2 guys on him in the last minute or two...thats why Korver was WIDE open....his man was helping double team Boozer.

[de2nd]

Memo was fouled, but that was an absolutely horrible play call. Really. Awful. Sloan is simply incapable of drawing up a 3 point play in a timeout. His best plan was to have Memo swing out from the low post to the corner and take a off balance 3?

Well I agree with that, but also Im guessing the play was for Deron...AK makes a lot of sh^+ passes and that play and decision by him was awful.

I honestly dont see what all of you see in AK. He is easily the most over rated player and defender on this team (because everyone knows Boozer is bad). CJ in 12 mins did more then AK, how can a Marion esque(body wise) get 2 rebounds. Please Please Please ship AKs ass out this summer, Im sick of these pussy european players on our team.

[ND Jazz Man]

50 free throws to 30 might have killed us too. Okur for the last shot?? What a terrible play call at the end.

Is anyone else sick of seeing Matty Harpring getting as many minutes as he does? Missed lay ups, cant guard any one, cant get a rebound.

Terrible Loss

[Duiz]

That was terrible ending too...

I hate how they show the efficiency update, when he got outrebounded during the whole game which is so innefficient that it meant a lot of 2nd chance opportunitties.

[Ern III]

Tough schedule, but it's probably not an excuse.

Our PF has a career game and we can't win because our defense is dreadful once again.

NBA history is littered with teams that have unsuccessfully tried to outscore opponents on their way to the title. Looks like we're the latest incarnation.
