Sadly, it's not being televised.

Keep your eyes open for a Ustream though!

The Nets need another power player and backup center. Look at Detroit for help Blatche is not a true center or post player but can serve in that capacity when asked.

I absolutely love the view we get with a televised game from the Barclays...

What's funny is that Blatche is a much more natural basketball player than Lopez. He sees the floor better and he's much more comfortable around the rim.

Theoretically he would be better suited playing with the 1's. So he can clean up around the rim, roll to the bucket etc. It all just comes easier to him

Where Lopez tends to get lost if he's not posting up.

Brook would help the 2nd unit find offense in the half-court with joe

Theoretically

I'm very excited about this.

Greg Anthony, the former UNLV star who went on to enjoy an 11-year NBA career, has joined the YES Network as a Brooklyn Nets game analyst. Anthony’s first Nets telecast will be Monday, November 5, when he joins YES play-by-play man Ian Eagle as the Nets host the Timberwolves at 7:30 pm ET. (YES pre-game show at 7:00 pm ET).

The former point guard will join Mike Fratello and Jim Spanarkel as YES’ Nets analysts this season. Eagle will handle play-by-play duties for YES, Ryan Ruocco will also call games, and Sarah Kustok is the network’s Nets sideline reporter (she is also the host of YES’ weekly Nets Magazine show)/

YES will televise the Nets’ season-opening game tomorrow Saturday night against the Raptors from the Barclays Center at 7:30 pm ET (YES pre-game show at 7:00 pm ET). Ryan Ruocco will handle play-by-play and Jim Spanarkel will provide color commentary for the Nets' first ever game in Brooklyn.

A native of Las Vegas, Anthony was the point guard on the UNLV team which defeated Duke for the 1990 NCAA basketball championship. He graduated from UNLV with a degree in political science.

The Knicks drafted Anthony with the 12th pick in the first round of the 1991 NBA Draft. He played for the Knicks until 1995, when he was selected with the second pick of the NBA Expansion Draft by the Vancouver Grizzlies. He played two seasons with the Grizzlies and later played for Seattle, Portland, Chicago and Milwaukee. Anthony retired in 2002.

"As a former point guard, Greg possesses a tremendous court vision and has a sixth sense of what will happen on the court," said John J. Filippelli, President of Production and Programming at the YES Network. "Greg’s addition to the YES roster will make a very strong broadcast team that much better as we embark on our historic first year of Nets coverage in Brooklyn."

Anthony currently is also an NBA analyst for TNT and NBA TV, and is a college basketball analyst for CBS Sports. Five days ago, Anthony called the Nets his "surprise team" of the season on Yahoo! Sports.
