Nets won't have Irving so I hope we snatch this one.

expect Spencer Dinwiddie to lead their team tonight
he's a think out of the box guy who has tried to convert his contract into a investable digital token and started his own shoe company:

BKN have 3 young players who would be interesting guys in our rebuild, Dzanan Musa, Rodions Kurucs and Nic Claxton, I just don't know who BKN would want from our jetsam for any one of them in trade

Kyrie out probably hurts us more than helps, he is terrible and a negative impact whenever we play him

He's an interesting one.

One of those springy, 2nd and 3rd jump types we need to keep the ball alive. He's also a fairly high BBIQ guy who can pass the ball a little.

I also read this:
Overall, Claxton’s numbers are not (yet) startling, but Allen has played well enough to keep him with Brooklyn. In 52 minutes over four games, he’s scored 14 points, grabbed 13 rebounds and seems to have a knack for the basket ... and a heady BBIQ. He’s shown he can set an effective pick and makes good decisions for a someone of his age and experience. He has yet to turn the ball over and has committed only four fouls.

Nets defense is Terrible. If Graham doesn't score 30, I'm going to be disappointed.

I get going for the Kyrie Durant duo, but I can really see it shooting them in the foot if Durant doesn’t come back still dominating

Best 1st quarter defensively for the Hornets in a few weeks.

Monk on fire again.

Seeing the basketball court colored grey is really strange.

Rozier has the ball but his way is blocked. Being a point guard, does he pass the ball? No, he throws up a brick that hits the side of the backboard.

Not to pick on one guy, but you have to be able play well consistently to win.

Then he does the same thing in the lane and gets called for a foul. Don't force the shot.

A few thoughts.

Will we ever protect the rim? Like, how many more uncontested Jarrett Allen dunks do we need to watch this game? Our interior D and rebounding is just terrible. Looking at you Cody and Miles.

Rozier has to be one of the most inefficient starting point guards in the NBA. I feel like we usually have to wait until he comes out for our offense to run. He puts up stats, but they’re not efficient stats.

Monk should be starting as well as Biz.

Give Cody Martin his mins back.
