One thing I forgot to mention yesterday was that Avery Johnson ruled out the idea of a shooting coach for Deron Williams.

Whether it was related to that or not, the coach said he spent all of yesterday’s practice focused on the offensive system, and installing some new plays ahead of the Nets’ next game tomorrow in Brooklyn against the Sixers.

Milwaukee has beaten us 11 straight times. I don't see that changing tonight.

I get hope every time a game is about ready to begin.

Then as the game progresses I start playing videogames or wander away.

Honestly, after the Nets beat the Knicks in their first matchup of the season, I really haven't been into this team. I don't even think I'm going to go to a game this year. Sucks... I was really wanting to at some point.

I'm watching this game live on league pass.... We are on summer holidays down under..... It's a cruzey 75 (f) As a long suffering nets fan, I'm just liking us being above 500. I'm not a big fan of Avery, but I do think the players need to step up more..... Not expecting a win but just loving the fact that I can actually watch them playing!

[vincecarter4pres]

Great, a built in excuse for Avery if we lose and if we win he gets the credit and the Deron is ruining the offense whispers start!

[big bill]

Nice OP lol. Been a while since I laughed liked that. Maybe it will make the loss bareable.

[Paradise]

If we win, who wants to bet Deron gets benched for CJ?

"CJ's behind the back passes to Wallace is great for us, I told Deron, he's not in the doghouse but we just need to try something different. So, our new starting point guard will be CJ and Taylor will play SG off the bench"

[MrDollarBills]

Deron's injured?

LOL.

Whatever dude.

This will be a double digit loss.

[Paradise]

Joe and Gerald will share minutes at PG tonight....


....I''m not kidding.

[Born_Ready]

Is Marshon Brooks still on the team?

[MrDollarBills]

Joe and Gerald will share minutes at PG tonight....


....I''m not kidding.

I remember when this jackass Avery said that "sometimes Gerald will bring the ball up as our quarterback"...I should have known that this wasn't going to be pretty.

Is Marshon Brooks still on the team?

Who?
