Nets/Wolves PG: Nets own the paint

[MrDollarBills]

Since March 6th Brook has been hitting the glass at a solid rate. He's responding to coaching, clearly...but of course, Hollins is the worst coach on earth

The development of the rookies are the only thing to really look forward to watching for the remainder of the season. The reality is we are not getting maximum effort, leadership or passionate basketball out of a core where our best players, leaders and role models are Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Brook Lopez. That's the reality of the situation. Complaining about effort is futile now. We aren't going to see any of it now especially considering it was sporadic at best when we were a playoff contender.

Atleast, we got a steal in Thad. Bojan is starting to live up to his expectations and Markel/CJ are legitimate prospects that impact the game.

It's nothing to be proud of but we put up a season high in PIP and destroyed them all the way through. Not like it was a discouraging effort.

Lavine only plays because he's a marketable player. I was not impressed outside of that sick dunk he had.

re: our beloved team, you know what was discouraging? Both Judas and Dog had a bounce in their step last night.

When we play against teams with actual NBA players, they both play disinterested and with questionable effort.

That tells me all that I need to know about Dog Will and Joe Judas.

Taking a step back, I'm not going to lump Brook in there with those two. Brook has been playing pretty decently give or take a stinker here and there.

Brook is playing like he wants to stay here. The other two do not.
