I expect to see Paul Pierce & KG more aggressive this game. I feel like this is going to be a dogfight, hopefully Wade & our role players show up. We're going to need a 20+ night from Wade tonight

I expect Brooklyn to come out and swing. Kidd rested the players only because, IMO, they will give everything in game 2.

I typed "dogfight" because I don't want to use any terms that came out of the mouth of Kevin Garnett

so are the Nets still sweeping or is that not going to happen anymore?

honestly I don't think the Heat will be even threatened in this series.

To have any chance in this series, the Nets have to get something from their bench. Otherwise, it's over.

If the nets want to win a game PP, KG and Williams all have to play well. Problem is not one of these guys can be relied upon anymore. I think the heat win the game by 15+ points tonight.

Fair enough, it never crossed my mind that you could be so childishly petty.

I'll take 100 million for a second round exit over 71 million for a first round exit. especially when my billionaire owner is paying it, not me.

have fun with your treadmill raptors though. watching derozan go 1 and done every year should be exciting!

Kg and pierce are going to try get going but will result in taking possessions from joe and Williams in the first half.

Um wut? I'm sorry that you take offense to me not wanting to use a term that a long time rival of my fav team that just so happens to be playing against my fav team in this series uses... :roll:

Who's the reliable second option for Brooklyn ? The bench is going to have combine for a second chair performance

Even JJ wasn't getting good shots other than the couple of 3's he got from good ball movement. Contested midrange shots over Battier is something the Heat will live with. A far cry from the 2 foot bunnies he was getting against the Raps.

Man, judging from the bulk of what you've posted here, you're a really, really fair-weather fan. You condemn your team after every loss, and hype them up after every win. A few days ago you were exclaiming the Nets were "done" and had " no heart", but here you are a few days later, blasting me for echoing exactly what you said. You always have something negative to to say about the Nets. You're more of a Nets critic than I am.

If by dogfight you mean double-digit win, then yes, it will be just that!

You absolutely deserve an AND1 for this. He's very critical (and in a bad way) of his own team. He has no confidence.

The worst opponent the big 3 era has faced is the 2013 Bucks. Not far behind is this Nets team.
