GT: Heat @ Nets Jan 10, 8:00PM (2-0 vs Heat)

I can't see us getting blown out. Hopefully I won't be eating crow later but Chalmers and Battier are bigger pieces than some realize.
Yes, Chalmers is not a top 10 point guard as he claims and the drop off between him and Cole isn't significant, but it's what happens when Cole comes out. Same as when Livingston comes out when we're without Deron. They don't have another pg on the roster. They were very stagnant on offense last night when Cole was sitting.

With Battier out Rashard Lewis started and played 28 minutes. Can't see us getting blown with Lewis starting and playing those minutes. The spacing is very poor without Battier giving Lebron less room.

Also without those two it means players like Roger Mason getting burn.

Pierce and KG hate Lebron, Ray and the Heat and always get up for games against them. It was evident even in the Preseason.

AK will be huge in containing Lebron.

They just don't have that many weapons around Bosh, Wade and James for me to think we'll get blown out

Expecting the worst, hoping for the best.

I see this as a gauranteed blowout. i think we will play with the same effort but i just dont see us scoring against that defense and turnovers will lead to runouts.

close for 8-9 minutes but heat pull away 101-67

101-67?

I was thinking maybe 103 to 84.

I'm thinking around a 10 point loss. 94-83.

+14 at halftime, +33 at the end of the third, then both teams scrub it out to end the game.

Tyshawn's jersey will say "@teey_y" on the back which is his instagram handle. So, as you can see he's not good at decision making in general either.

No Chalmers or Battier.... less 3 point shooters to defend, thats good news for the Nets

LoL...you guys realize that Rashard Lewis will turn back the clock and drop 5 threes on us tonight, right?

Iso Joe/Joe Jesus, Fearza, Toko and AK-47 are all MUCH better options.

Hey, you got to have some faith. I know the Knicks are hotter but I think the Nets can beat Miami too. If Wade, Chalmers, and Battier are out the Nets have to wear out the Miami bench and keep it close.

I think both this game and the GSW game will be scheduled wins but Nets need as many breaks as possible

Ak47 probably wasn't allowed. Joe Jesus came after the jerseys were already set.

If the Heat are without Wade, Battier, and Chalmers we should like our chances.

AK needs to play all his minutes, around 25, when Lebron is on the floor and sit whenever he sits. Without Wade we can key in on Lebron.

D-Wade is out according to NBA TV

Yeah, I know. I just think Joe Jesus would have been a great jersey. Hell, I would have probably bought one.
