Sure you can. Look at The Great Wall and the pyramids of Egypt. Sure they used extensive grueling human labor and a lot of people died, but you can't argue with results in that amount of time.

Re: Official Game Thread: Nets vs. Clippers (Game 12)
Then why can't NetsForce get some aliens?
It seems he did. Another nice graphic NetsForce. You saved a bunny.
Still pumped from the TOR game. I hope the team doesn't overcelebrate, especially with a back-to-back.

Re: Official Game Thread: Nets vs. Clippers (Game 12)
I really hope we don't see a let down game here.
We have been terrible at home.
The Clips are better then their record and have had some injuries, but, I mean look at their record.

BTW, Brook Lopez looks like he's taking a Castle crunch in that pick.

Re: Official Game Thread: Nets vs. Clippers (Game 12)
going with a school or office space theme this season Netsforce ? nice.
My favourite of yours was the game thread last year vs. Grizzlies with the animated cuddly bears hah.
Despite such a great win yesterday the Nets showed once again that they have a lot of deficiencies on defense - and incredible games by VC / Harris or major contributions from Lopez or hot perimeter shooting won't always be there. Frank has realized that one of Harris / VC must always be on the floor so as not to completely stagnate the offense - Yi / Anderson still get lost too often in zone defense.
It would be great for this team to go into the West Coast Trip playing 0.500 ball and no matter how great the Toronto victory was it will be a pretty bad letdown to lose at home to a struggling Clippers team.
This may be the last game before the frontcourt get's congested again...Boone expected to be ready for the west coast trip (on the bench hopefully....) and Swift may be close to coming back - I don't see how this won't impact negatively on SWat's minutes (Boone takes the C minutes & Frank likes Anderson as the first 4 off the bench).
edit: on a sidenote - in preseason I was stating why I thought a guy like VC is still valuable for a rebuilding team and I think it's showing early - just look at OKC...when there is no real vet presence and the young guys run the asylum , well bad habits & selfish play can be the name of the game.

Re: Official Game Thread: Nets vs. Clippers (Game 12)
Yes the Clippers are struggling at the moment. They are not all too horrible though. They are still learning to play together and have been much more competitive as of the last 4 games, ALthough it has not translated into wins. Their defense is much improved but scoring is a slight problem right now.
Chris Kaman went 25 pts 14 rbs 6assts 4blks against OKC, and 18pts 12rbs last night against 76ers.
Al Thornton has scored 20 or more the last 3 games. So look out for Baron Davis, Kaman and Thornton but other than that the rest of the guys are struggling a bit.
I am hoping Eric Gordon Plays the starter minutes because he can shoot lights out.
I am a Clippers fan by the way . thank you.

Re: Official Game Thread: Nets vs. Clippers (Game 12)
^^ Welcome to our board Petey. We appreaciate posts like yours. I can relate to Clips fans they remind me of the west coast version of us, second fiddle's in a major market. So good luck...except for tonight of course.
It's always tough playing the second game of a back to back. So we need to have a good night at the free throw line. Keep the TO's to a minimum and tighten up on D.

Re: Official Game Thread: Nets vs. Clippers (Game 12)
Harris' awesomeness is, well, awesome.
I was serious when I said he could lead the league in scoring, but I was joking when I said maybe he would, but now I am thinking, hell, maybe he will.

Michelle Beadle interviewing Kenny Anderson, looking quite dapper I might add.
If I was Kenny i would have been pushin' up on that, nah mean...

Boo-urns on VC for not throwing that down.
Yi's coming up big in the 3rd.
