Official Game Thread: Nets 117 Suns 109 Final

NetsForce · Post #1 » by **NetsForce** » Sun Nov 30, 2008 6:36 am

From what I've seen of the Suns this year they've regressed offensively and haven't had a massive improvement on defense. They're an "okay" defensive team but IMO are not a "great" one, so in other words... The Phoenix Suns are in no-man's land right now...

I'm particularly confused about Amare's lack of touches at times...

With that being said hopefully the Suns forget about Amare against the Nets. Shaq always plays well against New Jersey but Amare is the one guy on that roster who the Nets have no answer for if he goes off.

I'm expecting Devin to have another big game though, regardless of whether Nash plays or not...

Nets will net the Suns. :wink:

VC is reliable.
Haris is impressive.
Simmons is average.

Lpz was up and down these games.
Too much foul is killing Yi.

The important thing to remember about the nets season is not to expect anything. That way you can't be disappointed but you can always be happily surprised.

A great road trip so far but i can see us losing 120-87. As a true nets fan i seriously hope not! But you just never know which team will turn up!!

Thanksgiving break... Basically all I did was go out to eat every day with friends so I haven't had the motivation to do anything, break ended today though so it's back to the daily college grind

Winners of 6 out of their last 8, 4 coming on the road, the Nets with a 8-7 record look to win their 3rd in a row...last time the Nets won in Phoenix was 1993 and as per Yahoo, Rumeal Robinson was running the show...hopefully DH and company can take care of business and end another streak like we did in Sactown...doable with possibly a Nashless Suns...

If we can pull this one off it would be huge. We have to come out swinging and not let up. I'm not able to see tonights game so I'm looking forward to some good re-caps.......

I expect us to get dominated by Amare. We cannot defend him in the first place and with all the recent buzz about him not getting enough touches, he is going to be fed the ball play after play.

Post #12 » by **jerseyjac** » Mon Dec 1, 2008 1:01 am

Nash is a go, Dooling under the weather...CDR possible sighting...

Post #13 » by **jerseyjac** » Mon Dec 1, 2008 1:02 am

Vince and Devin, highest scoring backcourt in the league (46.9pts)...I like the ring of that...

vincecarter4pres · Post #14 » by **vincecarter4pres** » Mon Dec 1, 2008 1:48 am

What's Amare's problem?
This guy hates us.

vincecarter4pres · Post #15 » by **vincecarter4pres** » Mon Dec 1, 2008 1:52 am

We have now given up 9 F*****g points off of offensive rebounds that came directly from a missed 2nd foul shot.

I do not care what the expectations are for tonight, that is unacceptable, especially when we are down 11 instead of 2 because of it.

NetsForce · Post #16 » by **NetsForce** » Mon Dec 1, 2008 2:09 am

Come on Frank... I can't defend you forever. Once Robin Lopez had that dunk there should have been an immediate timeout.

I hear that Eddie jordan character is available.

vincecarter4pres · Post #18 » by **vincecarter4pres** » Mon Dec 1, 2008 2:14 am

What id this NBA Live? Phoenix is automatic from 3.

Yi with the buzzer beater!
Good stuff.

Yi's defense disturbes the hell outta me...

The dreaded return of Opie/Trent Hassell man love.
