I think it will come down to Danny Granger. Nets stop him, we win. Granger gets hot, we lose.
Its all about defense.
Go NETS!!!

Brook is moving farther and farther out on his shots...I don't like it.

Lawrence Frank is an idiot, he is not taking advantage on what he has. We should be killing this team

And Alston just suck and gets lucky

Lopez has been settling for so many jump shots. I'm not sure if it's because Frank wants him out on the perimeter or what but it's a waste of his size and talent.

0-11

I really hate most of the players on this team. Bobby Simmons, Sean Williams, Rafer Alston and even Terrence Williams. PLEASE hurry back Devin, PLEASE hurry back Keyon, PLEASE hurry back Jarvis... sigh..

NetsForce · Post #13 » by **NetsForce** » Wed Nov 18, 2009 3:09 am

Rafer has really fallen off. At this point in time I'd give him back to Orlando for free.

He sets such a bad tone with his ridiculously dumb turnovers.

Why? I'd take the Pacers' roster over the Nets'.

What I meant was at the time was, both your big men was in foul trouble and Frank did not took advantage of it and took it to the rim or Iso Lopez inside. We could've got them in deep foul trouble and the Nets would've have easier time scoring inside. However, what happen was Lawrence Frank didn't took the advantage and in the end Hibberts killed us. Good Job Frank.....

Btw, I would still prefer the Nets over the Pacers just because your team is not going anywhere for a long time. At least the Nets are looking to get on top. The only thing we are doing wrong is we are not looking for a new coach.

First of all, I can feel for the Nets--the Pacers went through some tough times with the Brawl thing (still pisses me off that Ben Wallace got off essentially scot free..) but your statement bolded above makes no sense. The Pacers have a very nice young core in Granger, Hibbert, Hansborough, Rush, McRoberts (who may be the most athletic big on the team) Ford, Solomon Jones, and Price to go with some quality veterans who still have a few good years ahead of them in Dunleavy, Dahntay Jones, Murphy, Watson, and Head.

Granger is already established, and Hibbert, Rush, and Hansborough are all going to be good players in this league for a long time. No offense, but even allowing for your injuries, I think our future looks just fine compared to an 0-11 team...and it's easy to blame the coach, but because of your injuries (which we have as well--Dunleavy, Murphy, Foster) and general talent level (which IMO is definitely no better than ours) right now you just don't have the horses to win. He may not be a great coach, but even good coaches have to have material to work with, which right now you just don't have.

Oh yes, it seems I have come at just the right time.

*ahem*

The only young talent that is worth anything on your team is Granger, Rush and Hibbert (underrated). Hans won´t be anything more than a role player off the bench, Ford is not a young peach, and McRoberts is just another Sean Williams. Now matchup the young core of Granger, Rush, and Hibbert against, Harris, Lopez, and CDR and I´ll say we have a stalemate... BUT WAIT.... with all of that in mind.... Look at all this money we have for next season.... Hmmm... How nice.... Let me take a look at Indiana´s money.... oh wait......

I'm sorry bIut I just don't see your team winning anything. I see the Pacers being a first round exit playoff team or maybe second round at best. I can never see them becoming contenders even pretenders by the way the team is build. You guys do have some great young core of talent they aren't good enough. You guys are built around Granger and I don't see him that good of a player and here is why:

Granger is a good player but not a superstar. Yes he can score 25 a night but the fact is most the of the points he scores are 3 point shots or just efficient scoring. He isn't a player you give the ball to to make some kind of play at the last second. He doesn't draw double teams or being feared by anyone. His play making abilities are not good enough. He is a player that you know will score points but won't really do much effect in the game. So basically I would never build a team around him. I only see him as a better version of Richard Jefferson with amazing 3 point ability.

From all the players you guys have I don't see any superstar potential however the Pacers do have a good young core. The only players that I see that can be in a championship team in the pacers are Granger(second scorer), Hibbert(good starter), Hansbrough(good energy role player), Watson(back up point), Foster (good back up), and maybe Murphy(sixth man).

Idk about Rush I don't really pay attention to him.

Basically what i'm saying is your team still need a superstar and you guys don't have any cap space to sign anyone so you have to get lucky in the Draft. Thus your team won't be winning anything for a long time.

Granger is pure awesomeness, let's not down play him.

crazykidd2k6 · Post #20 » by **crazykidd2k6** » Thu Nov 19, 2009 5:05 am

Don't get me wrong I like Granger I just don't think he is a player to build around by if you want to win a championship
