Can I just say I have been to the Rock! So if a dumb ass Australian can get there and pay 50 bucks to sit behind the scorers bench... Why can't the rest of you 92 supporters make it? They shouldn't need to sell 12 dollar tickets to get you on board! Just sayin lol....

Now after beating the Bricks I fully expect D-Will to 1 for infinity and we lose by 20.....

Who's going to the game today? Yall need to show Dwight some love (no booing please!) and chant "Brooklyn Bound!" Everytime he touches the ball.

Lopez will probably only play 20 minutes and Hump is out.


Get ready for 36 minutes of Johan Petro vs Dwight Howard

God damn, we're going to need another monster shooting night to have a chance, and I feel like we got ourselves amped up to play the Knicks, and we won't have it in us tonight.

Honestly, what worries me more than Dwight is Ryan Anderson. I feel like he's just going to light it up, we're horrible at defending the 3.

If Ilyasova could get 25 rebounds with Humphries out there, Dwight's probably going for 40+ rebounds against a Humphries-less Nets team.

The sad thing is that it might not actually be that far-fetched...I could see it happening, if we brick all our shots like we did against Milwaukee.

Shelden Williams has to learn how to box out, it's getting so frustrating to watch him just stand there, watch the ball go up, hit the rim, and the guy right behind him who he should be boxing out just grabs it and puts it back in.

Maybe Lopez can get Dwight in foul trouble... He's their only center anyways. Ryan anderson plays beyond the three point line and Glen Davis sucks almost as much as Shelden Williams.

I hope Dwight refuses to leave the arena and go back to the airport after the game; until his wish to be traded is granted.
OKC Thunder fan, too.

Dwight Howard snuck out the backdoor, knowing reporters were waiting for him



Gaines is questionable with a sore toe. Who plays back-up point, MarShon?

Its Derons tongue hanging out, the image is too big for the forum you have to click it to see the whole thing, the best part is Brooks looks like he's pissed at Ronald for stealing his thunder :lol:

I must admit. Some of these techniques being used to attract D12 are pretty shallow and just ridiculous.

I think it's pretty disrespectful to place easels in front of the Magic locker room with an article stating how Jay-Z will make the Nets stylish.

It's just so phony to me and I understand that Yormark is all about marketing, but this is cheesy and downright disrespectful.

I don't think Dwight needs to be convinced by fireworks that he needs to play in Brooklyn. Aside from the Loud and Proud section ticket price reductions, all the rest of the stuff is just phony.
