Rod Boone ‏@rodboone 25m25 minutes ago
Joe said #Nets want to try to get off to a fast start tonight vs. #Celtics. Said it hasn't happened so far in preseason games he's been in.

Yeah and looks like Bargs and Jefferson are out for you guys. Roizer looks really nice for his age so far, but that has been in summer league and against a declining Real Madrid. I was also looking forward to seeing how he fared against NBA competition.

Hunter is another guy on our roster to keep an eye on, and he should get decent minutes tonight.

Gl, and enjoy the game guys!

I fully agree. Was just naming some of the guys who are out for you. Looks like it's more than I thought. Fellow Cs poster posted this:

@TimBontemps: Andrea Bargnani, Markel Brown, Chris McCullough, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Donald Sloan (sore hamstring) are out tonight.

Oh lord, Isiah Thomas is going to tear Jack apart.

jbeachboy · Post #12 » by **jbeachboy** » Wed Oct 14, 2015 8:23 pm

id like to see if jack can actually run an offense, pass and setup the starters, and actually play aggressive defense

Shane is starting tonight.

kamaze · Post #14 » by **kamaze** » Wed Oct 14, 2015 11:41 pm

-Larkin and Ellington start tonight

-Lionel Hollins staying with the salt&pepper beard

Net Sentence · Post #15 » by **Net Sentence** » Wed Oct 14, 2015 11:46 pm

This is why Jack is the starter. Offense cant even get started with Larkin in there

MrDollarBills · Post #16 » by **MrDollarBills** » Wed Oct 14, 2015 11:47 pm

They need to run some pick and rolls, pick and pops. sometimes with Larkin/Lopez, other times with Joe/Brook

joe is honestly like a stiff out there. No defense, doesn't move if the ball isn't in his hands on offense.

Boston just has aggressive guys that defend. Where is the energy? Can't blame D-Will now if your energy is trash.

Larkin had a nice 3. He's not the issue. Joe is useless out there and Brook is getting swarmed. He shouldn't be posting up.

MrDollarBills · Post #19 » by **MrDollarBills** » Wed Oct 14, 2015 11:50 pm

I think Hollins needs to consider playing Bojan over Joe. Joe seriously doesn't do anything out there.

It helps to watch the game with your eyes open. Larkin Isnt making anything happen moving to the basket.
