Yeah, it was horrible.

Kidd should've known that Casey likes to foul in that situation.


Its ok. Really, that comeback was the stuff of legend so i can't blame Kidd, did we really have any other option?

Meh, I resigned myself to the loss for a while, so this comeback was pretty fun to watch, but I was never expecting the win. So I'm not even that mad right now.

Deron Williams needs to go. That's really all that's on my mind right now. These last 2 games have been the 2 biggest games of our season, and he came up smaller than mini-me.

Never thought I'd see the day where Johnson's contract is only the 2nd worst on this team, but it clearly is. Deron isn't half the player that Johnson is.

Good comeback, all Brooklyn needed was some long ball shooting and they got tons in that 4th Q. If it wasn't for Lowry playing out of his mind, comeback would have been completed. It looks like this is going 7 games.

This x10000.

Waited till we were down 20+ to show any type of passion or desire.

Interesting looking at the lineup on the floor.

I mean..just WHY?

He knows the time situation. He had the ball. He had a great chance to to tie it right then and there!

But, lolnope, runs away in the opposite direction and heaves it across court.

Just what in the ****? :banghead:

Dude, I can't believe the level of idiocy we just witnessed.

Blatche was wide open. D-Will was wide open.

This idiot throws it into the backcourt. :nonono:

Still 3-2. We can still win this series but man this would have been an epic win. Lowry just did whatever he wanted in there.

I'd like Lowry a lot more if he wasn't such a flopper. Still have to recognize he burned Deron nearly every chance.

Was Blatche thinking they were going to the other basket with that pass? I mean, SERIOUSLY? Costly turnover.

Had the Nets not had to play catch up for most of the game the result may have been different. I can't stand games like this. Too damn close.

Raptor fan coming in peace. Wow what a comeback for you guys. I'm just wondering has JJ done that during the regular season? He was relentless out there and I feel his play lead to the passing that got you guys so many good looks.

In hindsight, Blatche should't have even been in the game. Why not have all three point shooters in the game at that point?

He's a monster in the clutch. He disappears for stretches (like the first half) but there isn't a player in this league I trust most when we need a score.

I think Kidd has to realize that SL cant contain DeRozan... might as well put Livingston on Lowry because hes size seems to bother Lowry. DeRozan still going to get his. But Lowry and Vasquez are killinggggggggggg the Nets badly.

Plus...Kidd has to realize that Plumlee is hurting the team, Blatche should be the first big off the bench

Expecting to foul? Then again, who the hell cares, it's not as if they can't foul either.
