Nets rounding into form. 3 straight losses couldn't keep up with the teams although they played hard.

Pelicans and Suns win. Nets lose.

Nets losing offsets the pain of Celtics losing.

Pick related: I wouldn't mind Harry Giles at this point ( I know injury history is a concern). He's KG 2.0.

I'm hoping the Trailblazers loss to the Pelicans will motivate them for a big game tomorrow at the Nets. The next game after that for the Nets is a big one - Wednesday night at home against the Celtics. Crowder - Horford - c'mon guys - we can't afford another 2-2 against the Nets this season

Pels win. AD just needs a little help to get that team to a respectable record. The guy is so damn good. With Holiday back I don't see them being bad at all.

Sixers too. Not a bad night for the C's.

The only team that makes me nervous right now is Dallas. Whoa are they bad. Philly will get Simmons back at some point and the Lakers look much improved, amazing what dumping Byron Scott can do for you. I think the nets come in the bottom 2, bottom 4 at worst depending on Miami and Philly

Dirk and Deron have been out. They're obviously not what they used to be but they're still both starters in this league. They have enough talent to go on a run at some point.

Nice day all around -Celts win, and Pels win, Heat win...and I guess 76ers win over Suns.

How on earth are the Wizards so bad?!

Can't see John Wall wanting to stay on that team longterm if they continue like this

Brook Lopez is a tough cover now with that added 3 point shot. Almost have to go small against him and try to encourage him to get back into the post.

Turner playing well against Brooklyn, obviously trying to repay the favour of getting him that large contract. GO TURNER!

Turner leading the Blazers to a W over the Nets would just be the greatest thing.

Not watching - but 7 of 9 with no 3 pointers, seems like he's playing his game.

Real defensive struggle going on...

Homerclease · Post #1056 » by **Homerclease** » Sun Nov 20, 2016 9:55 pm

And that's the Nets downfall, they might be the worst defense in the league. If they don't shoot lights out they get blown out. It's why they won't win 20 games this season and it's why we are going to enjoy another top 3 pick again

pasfru · Post #1057 » by **pasfru** » Sun Nov 20, 2016 9:58 pm

Both teams have high school calibre defence. It's kind of painful to watch.

ET is balling though. 14 points and 4 assists in 16 minutes, +6 rating.

It was only a matter of time until the losses started to pile up for Brooklyn.

Man, it's a good thing we didn't panic and do anything silly with that pick.
