Reminder that the game is at 3:30pm on Monday.




Looks like Chris Paul will miss the game with a right hamstring.

It's not star players who kill the Nets it's scrubs so CP3 missing the game is probably the worst thing that could happen to us... I fully expect Randy Foye to drop 20+ now.

Yeah, I think Jordan and Griffin are going to destroy us inside, our front court might be the worst defensive group in history.

But no Chris Paul is better, because he makes everyone else better. Their players should have a tougher time scoring...but our team is just so bad defensively that I'm not so sure.

Remember, Deron had arguably the best game of his career against the Suns, and our shooters were lighting it up, and they didn't have Nash or Hill...and we barely won. Our defense really is embarrassingly bad.

Do the Clippers even need CP3 against the Nets? I don't expect this contest to be close. I predict the Clippers jump out to a 10-0 lead to start the game and never look back.

It's to bad NJ can't play the Wizard, Raptors, and Suns every other day. :(
OKC Thunder fan, too.

this will be a beatdown. any team with any kind of transition game decimates us. we turn the ball over, we constantly rain down long threes, and our defensive balance completely falls apart whenever Deron takes it to the rim. i mean, the only chance we have is if our shooters are on fire again.

They're still going to destroy us without CP3. Blake and Jordan and licking their chops looking at our frontcourt.

We go down by 15 in the 1st quarter, heading to a 20 point blowout

BLAKE is licking his chops looking at our frontcourt. Deandre Jordan is terrible offensively.

The amount of easy, uncontested buckets team get against us is ridiculous. So many layups and points in the paint.

And nothing is worse than touch fouls. If you're gonna foul the guy, make sure he doesn't hit the shot... Especially Blake and Jordan since they aren't great FT shooters.

Yes, this is directed at Ammo.

Looks like 15 point lead was too generous, they up by 17.
