Gamethread: Brook Lopez Returns! vs. Bucks

[Ronito]

Nets MANHANDLED the Bulls on Saturday, and now the rested Bucks are coming to town for the Nets' second game of a back-to-back-to-back.

Welcome back, Brook Lopez.

Nets injuries:
Bucks injuries: Andrew Bogut and Gooden (I think).

LET'S MEET THE TEAMS.



PG - Deron Williams and his headband.
SG - MarShon Brooks and his swag.
SF - DeShawn Stevenson and his $5 bills y'all.
PF - Kris Humphries and his health.
C - BROOK LOPEZ(!!!) and his awesomeness.



PG - Brandon Jennings
SG - Shaun Livingston
SF - Carlos Delfino
PF - Ersan Ilyasova
C- Jon Leuer

FUN FACTS:

Remember when the Bucks traded for Stephen Jackson and it blew up in their face?

lol at the Fun Fact


Carlos Delfino always kills the Nets, I'm scared of him.

Farmar Played 10 minutes today. I'm hoping for the same for tomorrow's game.

2 upcoming must win games if this team wants a chance for the playoffs. We could be 4 games out with 32 games left if we won both and Dallas beat NYK.

Brook's probably only going to put in 15-20 minutes of work, max. But still, that's 15-20 minutes that Petro/Williams aren't playing, so that's awesome.

It should be nice to finally see a big man that can create his own offense. What Humphries did against the Bulls is basically what Lopez can do on a nightly basis.

I never understood those statements. Are we always like the 9th team or aren't there others teams in front of us as well for a playoff spot?

I'm irrationally excited for tonights game.

I'm irrationally excited for tonights game.

Why irrationally?

[VCRJKidd15]

I heard that Brandon Jennings said he hasnt been trying much after not making the All Star break. That sounds kind of ridiculous for Jennings to say so idk if its true but at the same time it wouldnt surprise me

[jeff1624]

Why irrationally?

Because we're a 9 win team facing the bucks.

[VCRJKidd15]

Injured players can still be traded. Whether the other team wants to trade for an injured player is a different story.

[VCRJKidd15]

jesus crist this team just doesnt want to be fully healthy.

[jeff1624]

At least Gaines (the better player of the two) will get his minutes.

Right, which is I said he doesn't want to be traded lol. He's banking on the damaged goods factor.
