The Nets have lost four in a row and are (1-9) in their last 10 games but hung around in Golden State for awhile last night against the Warriors but they have to fly across the country and rest fast for this one. LeVert is back healthy but we have no excuse to lose this game. Hopefully Monk gets at least as many minutes as last night. :wink:

Here we go again. Let’s do the same gameplan that got us 28-37 and hope we get a different result.

Trade Lamb so we can re-sign Graham.

Minimal defense from the starters, it appears, this game and the last.

Monk and Lamb together is a nice combo.....Clifford is a **** dumb ass to leave this on the bench for MCW, its nothing he can say to convince me otherwise.

I loved the way Monk flew in above the rim to try to tip in the rebound, even if it was off the mark.

Honestly it's fun watching Monk play. It's also amazing how much of an impact Cody has when he's healthy.

But someone tell me why we never saw that MCW, Monk, Lamb, Frank, Cody lineup like ever.
https://stats.nba.com/lineups/advanced/?Season=2017-18&SeasonType=Regular%20Season&TeamID=1610612766

That lineup literally does not exist.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Because in Clifford’s mind Lamb is a SG and SG play SG. He used Lamb playing well this season as his excuse for not playing Monk.

When your CPI Defensive Play of the Game goes to the bottom of the backboard then you know it was a bad game!

overall I'm happy with the result of this game. We lost but Monk looked like an NBA player with some ability at point guard.

monk's good play means a whole lot more to me than a pointless win

Our bench in the last few minutes looked like a team that had just been eliminated from the NCAA Tournament, Dwight wasn't joking, laughing and smiling even and it took them a minute to get Kemba substituted out, I think he had a free throw to shoot and he sat on the bench and just put his towel over his face and I wouldn't be surprised nor blame him if he were crying or at least shed a tear or two everyone has been shouting from the rooftops we need to be losing for around two months now but I genuinely felt horrible for him! The guy hates losing!

Kemba Walker is an All-Star and a warrior. When the team declined to retain two real warriors on the roster in summer 2016--Jeremy Lin and Tyler Hansbrough--the team lost its moxy. You need guys like them to bring a winning ethos to the team. The only one left to help was Cody Zeller, who has been injured much of the past two seasons. Instead, the Hornets front office went all-out to sign Nicolas Batum, who is passive most of the time, and never sets a hard screen for fear of hurting his pretty face.

will be annoyed if howard, mkg, and marvin are starting again next year. at very least two of three need to change.
