[pancakes3]

I thought this thread was a joke but... Brooklyn is sitting their starters!? WTF?

[deneem4]

Now we jus need to beat the cultic and Toronto win the next game...and we'll be set to play the bulls then pacers...

[BruceO]

dont look now but its happening...chicago has just lost freezing toronto into third seed regardless of what they do.. and now suddenly brooklyn has started loosing in the third quarter as well as toronto and we are winning..

Brooklyn's tank is so obvious, it's obnoxious.

Man, I was all hyped to lose 2-4 to Toronto, now we've got to lose 2-4 to Chicago instead? Screw Brooklyn.

Look at it this way: more people will be watching us lose!

They must really want that #1 pick. Hey, wait a minute!

Definitely rather lose to chicago...shows how sucky of a coach Wittman is and our youngsters to a true playoff atmosphere, Toronto would be cool...but chicago fans are monsters, wall and beal need to experience that crowd and when we win...we'll be on national headlines...stopped the bulls after they been to the 2nd Rd for how many years now?

I'd be pissed if I was a Brooklyn fan. Whether they're tanking for Toronto (which appears to be the case) or not, limping into the playoffs doesn't seem like a good thing.

Hope to see Toronto dismantle them so they think twice about how they ended this season.

If any team can survive a late season intentional tank, it's the Nets, IMO. They have enough experience to know what they need to do come playoff time. Still think Toronto can give them problems, though.

Toronto can beat them.

They also looking ahead. They didn't want to play the Pacers who swept BKN but rather play the Heat who they've swept and have confidence against in Round 2.

Yup. They didn't start tanking until Miami clinched the 7 seed. Heck, the 3/4 seed was still undecided.

I'm no Raptor fan by any means but the Nets are gutless pieces of trash. I hope the Raptors kick their ass.
