Probably some rich kid who coaxed a good looking girl to go to the game with him because he had two tickets. The girl saw it as a friendly outing while he saw it as a date and so she didn't reciprocate.

The reason the Nets got back in the game is from him committing 2 bad turnovers and a couple of bad fouls on defence at the beginning of the 4th quarter that got the Nets within 15 and woke them up.

Like if he could have just managed the game better and kept the lead at 18 or 20 until the 8:00 minute mark we could've potentially just coasted to victory, but no, they woke up in large part because of Vasquez.

Trust me man. This guy Vasquez will **** us all up.

I will say this: I can see the reasons why Casey plays Hayes and Salmons so much. They bring good things to the table in limited amounts. Hayes can rebound and plays pretty decent defense against non-athletic guys. Salmons works hard and is usually in the right spot on defense. Those guys have to have limited minutes though. Hayes is a negative on offense (outside of his mid-range J, evidently) and struggles against length. Salmons is limited offensively when he isn't hitting threes (which is common) and he's not strong enough to guard Johnson. Fields must not have been available.

This team needs some productive wing players off the bench so bad. Basically a bigger version of Ross as our SF.

You can't play Salmons as your first wing man off the bench against guys like Joe Johnson...

Bring Vince home, draft a big SF, and bring in a vet back up C while we are at it.. Don't want to watch Hayes play anymore.

Jonas almost made the stupidest play that would have rivalled Chris Webber's timeout call. Goaltending on a last second heave. Thank te good lord for that back court violation.

Everyone knew it would be a back court violation. I'm sure that's why JV did it.

yea it wasn't the crappy D of salmons and demar on joe ....

Not to mention 2Pat for leaving Tel open at the 1:23 mark.

There was also a time early in the game when PPat came off Mirza to double team PP but Pierce just passed to Mirza for the 3. Surprised by Pat, usually he's a smart player. Stupid defence and he was extremely timid on offence, but he's played well so hopefully he brings it next game.

Not sure if serious. Do you watch basketball?

Yes JJ was lighting it up, but he wasn't the only one. Teletovic, AA, etc. Shake my head. Don't go around calling people "bloody morons" when you aren't even right.

It don't float here.

Once JJ got 5 fouls why didn't we attack him relentlessly to foul him out ?

The more I look at this, the more I realize she DID NOT like it at all.

Whatever happened there, I feel bad for the guy. Obviously misread some signals. But at the very beginning it looks like her mouth is slightly open as if she's ready for it, and then jerks her head away. Not sure what to make of it.

And yes, we're all probably spending far too much time analyzing a 1 second clip. I know I am!

The joys of being a raptors fan. By the looks of it he definitely misread some signals. She looks like she was just talking to him. Someone mentioned that he could have been drunk. But, what I find mysterious is why she wasn't wearing a raptors shirt.

They made some tough shots - we bailed them out a few times fouling their 3 point shooters but when it mattered most, we kept it together.

Friday night the Nets will feel all the pressure

Man everyone stfu They made a run big deal who won the ball game? Brooklyn has momentum?? Really?? Who's up 3-2?? Anyone on here not happy with the win can gtfo be proud of your team and stop bitching about everything. Raptors won the game they've got all the momentum. The pg thread makes it seem like we lost . Holy ****

You are one of the only guys on this board defending Salmons. lol. JJ obviously was not shut down. He scored on Salmons as well. There were a couple of plays where Salmons did play good D. But that's all. Not good enough.

How can anyone in their right minds defend Salmons? Have you checked the box scores 2Pat? Or are you watching the games with your eyes closed?
