The Sixers are young, athletic, and they play hard, so I'd usually say that they should destroy us...but we have so much more talent than they do, and we've actually stepped up our level of play with Deron back, so there's no excuse for us to lose.

Especially if Brook plays...but honestly, there should be no reason why we're so pathetic without Brook. We should still win games, especially against teams with lesser talent.

Sixers have lost six straight and are back where they belong, we should be winning this even if Brook doesn't play.

This is a game the Nets should win but even with a having a 3 game winning streak recently I still don't trust this team.

MCW is out so Deron should have a fairly easy matchup against Wroten. Here's hoping he continues his strong play.

MCW out, Lopez most likely going to play.

Up by 10 at half, up by 15+ after three quarters, starters rest the 4th. Cruise to a double digit win.

This should be the staple expectation against teams like the 76ers.

having more talent hasnt stopped bad teams from blowing us out all year. with or without dwill/lopez.

after a bad loss, i expect us to lose for sure since we usually dont bounce back from embarassing/bad losses but instead get worse the next game.

MCW is going to go ape against our gaurds. i think philly wins by 15-20. this is a DVR game for me, no way im gonna put myself through this. especially if lopez is out.

You must have missed the news that MCW is out and that Lopez is probably going to play, lol.

Sixer fan here. I just wanted to say that you guys better win tonight. Your team has far less incentive to tank than we do. :D

Let's hope Tele doesn't **** the bed tonight.

I'm nervous because this is a winnable game and should be a simple matchup for us but we have sucked this season and found new ways of sucking.

I'm worried because I'm a Nets fan I think

Why no brook. This happens every time. He is ready an they hold him back because they are overly protective. Normally that's a good thing but this is annoying considering we can't seem to win without him.

Cause hes not healthy yet. Would you rather he hurt his ankle more and then miss another 10 games?

Im honestly expecting a win, and I haven't said that in a while. Its time for D Will to step up.

Glad they're keeping Lopez out when he isnt 100 %. We should take care of Phily at home nomatter if he plays or not.

Also, Kidd learned from the last game and decided to start Mirza instead of Evans, thus sliding KG to center.

Yeah, at least this time the Nets actually made it seem like they tested him and they just didn't feel he was 100% yet.

Their approach has been much better than it has been last season and early this season where they just keep everyone in limbo wondering about the severity of the issue.
