Codzilla should smoke Lopez.

Work him in the P&R and fly by him off the dribble with his dipsy-doo magic.

Wanted to go this game but tickets are like 70 bucks a pop. Pretty crazy considering I paid 20 to go the last Nets v Hornets game.

I live 2 hours away in Hartford but I get all NY games blacked out on LP. Guess they expect me to travel a total of 4 hours not including traffic for a 2 hour basketball game. Such bs

My friend got free tickets, I'm lucky. I'll be there tonight. I'll give my impressions when I get back from it.

I root for Lin to play well and his team be competitive, and I usually root for the Nets, but as I told the Nets board, I root for Charlotte and the games all count for playoff seeding. So I want to see a competitive game, and really, the Hornets should not lose to the team with the worst record in the league. Besides Lopez/Lin, only Bogs and Kilpatrick really score a lot and both have been in scoring slumps. Even if the Hornets are down after the half, the Nets turn to self-destruct in the 3Q, go on a little run, then run out of steam in the 4Q.

keep an eye tonight on Bogdanovic. We tried to trade for him last January. 27 & expiring, I figure he's due to have a big game to keep Cho's flame burning into this year's deadline

ultra-minuscule fun fact - I love how Cliff makes eye contact with the reporter at 0:19 to show that he's still there and then spends the next six seconds following the shot archs of the guys practicing. and then he returns back to the reporter.

Yeah i'm projecting a bit with the knock him out bit, but this was def cringe worthy how much he pressed when we all know walker isn't the best player on a championship team probably. cliffs good with the media, hes got that new england wit to him.

its funny isn't it, how annoying cody is as an nba player? cant anyone explain this? cody just sets super hard screens and runs hard, pisses off 75% of the bigs he plays. he does some cheeky stuff like that trip vs dwight but overall a passive guy.

We'll need a big game from either Lamb or Frank tonight with Marco out.

I'm just here to witness Lamb score 20pts in 20 minutes.
They will wage war against the Lamb but the Lamb will triumph them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings - and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers." Revelation 17:14 (NIV)
