We didn't ask for a review and the Hornets obviously wouldn't ask for one.

It's at least a good sign that the Nets had 30 assists this game.

That's why some of us called it a curse within a blessing. He's not good. He's a streaky role player.

Damn, I step out at the end of the 3Q to pick up some booze, with the Nets up like 2, and then I come back and we're down 6 with 2 highlights of Batum 3PTers.

Didn't like Kilpatrick a bit in this game.
Acy gave us a bit taste of stretch 4, he made it easier.
Most NBA stats aren't credible. At most times the people who interprets those data are biased, or the data themselves are flawed. Basketball is just too complicated with so many uncontrollable variables.

I guess it's apart of the easing his minutes process. He got 25 last night.

9/4/2 on 50% shooting is solid for his 18 minutes. He needs the ball in his hands.

I think when we led by two, skill and booker's combination of three bad shots and one bad pass was the game changer.

It was not necessarily their shots, but their complete lack of IQ that killed any momentum and shut out levert and lopez from doing anything

Skil has been stretching his game since summer league, now is stretching nowhere... so much for the development..

The last 4 minutes was a chit show full of sloppy basketball.

Sean Kilpatrick was the ring leader and his carelessness with basketball led to several big possessions for the Hornets to close out the game. That type of reckless abandon should not be tolerated any further.

I know nothing is going to change but it's time to quit trying to maximize Kilpatrick's limited skill set in spots he can not handle. The ball should not be in his hands in clutch moments.
OKC Thunder fan, too.

I'm so tired of Booker trying to go coast to coast or his drives in general. He wasted a couple of big possessions with his wild runs to the rim. Coach needs to talk to him because Whitehead is too green to challenge a vet in those situations late in a game when you need a good shot. One on 3 with your PF attacking is possibly the last play you want.

It's clearly obvious why the bench does better, higher IQ players who defend. We're fine when the line up is Whitehead, LeVert, RHJ, Acy and whoever else (i wish Kenny would play Lopez with this group). It's when idiots like Kilpatrick, Bojan, and Booker start playing moron ball do the problems start. It's no coincidence that the team went into the toilet every time Kilpatrick and Bojan were on the floor at the same time.

I like Booker but he has crossed the balance between being aggressive and trying to do too much.

Embarrassing first quarter by the temporary starters. We need all of them to come off the bench!

Diwidi - obviously
SKil - better as gunner off the bench
Bogs - same as above
Brook - dinosaur like ZBo, Kanter, Vucevic, Big Al etc
Booker - as much as I love him, his lack of J and his lazy ball slapping means he might be better off the bench. (he was watching LVJ's man go to the basket for a dunk where he should have helped) I was joking about Acy "the four point play guy" taking his spot, but so far it shows why Acy had been a starter for the past two seasons. Thanks DWill! Is Acy gonna make the three point shoot out in the all star game? His shooting is obviously not gonna stay this hot, but it's for real, it's frigging money. He doesn't slack off on D as well. Thanks again DWill!

I have compared LVJ to Batum before and we got a glimpse of it this game. They are quite similar except that LVJ is more aggressive in a positive way. He could be better than Nic.

Foye's play got better after the game winner but now he's jacking it up. That's not cool. We need his minutes down.

Solid outing from iHead, 4 assists, 0 TO, his shot looked good.

RHJ needs to get better at shooting. I'm sure he's working real hard at it. (1/3FT, 0/3 3pt)

Is it some kinda rookie wall for SKil? How could he be so bad after playing so well before? Did that spat with Brook get his spirit down or something?

The come back was nice tho, 3rd quarter collapse for them, that's rare.

Didn't we see some offense/defense sub at the end of game for Bogs and Brook? That's nice. Almost worked.

We did a great job stopping their main scorers Batuman and Walbin from scoring till the very end. We let their other guys score too easily tho, like Zeller, Sessions, Belly, Frank and Tank and MKG.

That four point play where Foye's eye fouled Batum tho...... turning point of the game.......
