I'll make a game thread again, the day this team starts playing with defensive focus.

Starting lineup

-Whitehead
- Bogdanovic
- RHJ (questionable)
- King Booker
- Splash Brother #3 Brook Lopez

No RHJ according to Brian Lewis of the post.

Skil is starting at SG in place of RHJ. Whitehead is playing too.

nice to have another shooter on the floor... especially with indy not being great defensively.

RHJ's D will be missed, but honestly he has been hurting us a bit recently with his chucking/black hole tendencies of late. needs to be reeled in.

Nets should try feed Lopez throughout the game down low. Once Indiana starts to double team it will free up outside shots. With a dominant inside scorer like Brook this strategy is a no-brainier.
To not do this is just dumb.

This is one way to get scores, but this is what we spent all of last season doing and look how that worked out. We need to find other ways, but just haven't got the talent to get it done (especially without Lin).

Your personnel is almost completely different this year. You must play to the strength of your best player especially with Lin out.

So is Harris or Kilpatrick starting?

While Kilpatrick is the better player, I'd go with Harris because of the height.

Thank the basketball gods. Must win, please.

George is out but they are at home and still more talented even with him out. winnable game if we play hard... their already bad D takes a hit with him out.

Kilpatrick start

Legitimately curious - has A. Bennett shown anything with you guys? I saw he's averaging 10 mpg and his per 36 looked alright.

Prokorov · Post #18 » by **Prokorov** » Sat Nov 26, 2016 1:13 am

Lopez missed a wide open bogs in the corner on that hook shot attemp

booker putting in work.

90% of his minutes are garbage time or when one of our bigs is out. he has been bad or a non factor. his finishing has been an embrassment
