After last nights game i'm not expecting anything good from this one , especially when/if Devin is out .

At least look better Nets please ....

A better question to ask would be "Who do you think will stink up the gym more?"

Hawks hammered the Nets last time they played.
Hawks are 1 game ahead of Nets, so if Nets win it's a draw again...not sure who has the tie breaker.

Yesterday's game was huge and the Nets failed miserably. Both teams will be (or more honestly, should be) hyped for this game.

Harris is likely out, Krstic is...?
Hawks have won 3 in a row.
Nets just lost a huge game yesterday
Nets stink at back-to-back's (esp. VC)
Nets defensive rotations were bloody awful yesterday and have been all season.

so basically what I'm saying is in the topsy-turvy Nets world all signs point to a win.

Absolutely. Even if we lose, I want to see some passion, some professionalism. Watching us against Chicago I felt like I stepped in dog doo-doo.

Play like the Rockets, even thought they lost to the Celtics last night, you could see the Rockets played to their full effort and talent, the Celtics just where better that night. I can accept and be satisfied with that.

Go NETS!!!!

Playoff race FTW!!!!

OK so Atlanta has Josh Smith and Al Horford in, and Frank goes with Josh Boone and Trent Hassell? Now tell me, how the hell does that make any sense at all?

Frank is the most clueless coach i have ever seen.

Serpo · Post #15 » by **Serpo** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:40 am

The Hawks hit everything , every shot contested or not went in .

The 1 minute of breather for Vince lead to a decent difficit .

Some of these posters here only post in losses to show some hate , get lost idiots .

I mean holdupstop23 have you ever posted anything possitive ? I can't recall anything just get lost ****.

EFF · Post #16 » by **EFF** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:44 am

we play the stupidest, softest defense ive ever seen.

and whoever has ever said Boone is a good rebounder, I'm sorry, but that is simply untrue.

and again with the going small when we're getting dominated on the boards. someone get frank a clue.

EFF · Post #17 » by **EFF** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:46 am

vince is is tearing it up but he's gotta be thinking, "whats the point"

Serpo · Post #18 » by **Serpo** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:47 am

We got outrebounded even before going small , it hasn't even something to do with size .

Atlanta fights for these rebounds our guys not , it's just about intensity on the board and our bigs don't show that so far.

Birth of the Cool · Post #19 » by **Birth of the Cool** » Thu Mar 20, 2008 12:48 am

ok first few minutes again to see where the Nets are at.

Man, VC on a back-to-back is playing out of his mind. I didn't think it was possible anymore this season. I'm just hoping it continues for a full game.

Al Horford is playing Godzilla in the Nets paint.

RJ missed alley-oops, SWat missed dunk (still shaking my head) & JJ buzzer beater and this game is so much better...sigh.

Ok so they fight harder, but every time a rebound comes off, you see horford, and then like vince and devin reaching for the ball. Boone by this point has gotten pushed way under the basket cuz the guy's like man sized styrofoam out there.

Our little guys are jumping and fighting for the rebound. It's about having size to not give up that kind of positioning to their bigs, and size that plays hard.
