I'm expecting JA to start on Siakam with Rodi guarding Gasol/Ibaka. Biggest concerns on defense are not letting Siakam killing us at the rim + limiting open 3s for Gasol/Ibaka + not letting Lowry bait the refs with flops. We'll probably see a lot of zone too.

I'd be impressed if we can win a game this series. Toronto's defense is too good, they're too deep, and they don't take bad shots. Not having a legit backup C is going to really hurt. We're really gonna have to be locked in for 48 minutes to be competitive. We've done it for a couple of games in the bubble so maybe I shouldn't count them out.

Nets vs Raptors in February - Caris misses a game winner with a fadeaway over OG.

In Lowry’s defense, the raptors were historically screwed by refs prior to his tenure here. It was actually ridiculous. He’s done what he’s had to, to change that around. Good luck friends, I hope it’s an entertaining series.

I'm going full on Nets homer, anti-Raps hater bias... Brooklyn in 7.

Cheeze, TJ and TLC will need to step it up and knock down shots.

Raps are lucky AF we're missing 3/4 of our team.

If we just had Dinwiddie and DJ I feel we could push them to 6-7 games even without KD and Kyrie.

Yea if we had Din and DJ it would be alot different. I think TLC will be our X factor. He has the potential to drop 20 plus points in any game. We're going to need him big time here. This might be his break out time.

Rodi, Harris, TJ, TLC, Temple, and Cheese need to hit their open threes and make them pay. I have no doubt that Nurse will try to clog the paint.

Sarah Kustok looks so good to me. Brook Lopez should of took that down

Temple has to hit those open 3s

Raptors defense is just already taking the Nets out of everything that was working for us in the seeding games. Told yall they were going to clog the paint on LeVert.

Guys have to get open and space the floor correctly. I haven’t seen that yet.

these refs are calling bogus calls for tornto already. I counted 3 bogus fouls going their way already

MrDollarBills · Post #36 » by **MrDollarBills** » Mon Aug 17, 2020 8:24 pm

Rodi with two fouls already. jesus christ

MrDollarBills · Post #37 » by **MrDollarBills** » Mon Aug 17, 2020 8:25 pm

This is going to be over quickly. LeVert is being triple teamed and forcing bad shots, no one is hitting open shots, and on defense the Nets look tiny.

Paradise · Post #38 » by **Paradise** » Mon Aug 17, 2020 8:26 pm

Temple is doing nothing out there

DarkXaero · Post #39 » by **DarkXaero** » Mon Aug 17, 2020 8:26 pm

Temple needs to be benched. If he can't make those wide open 3s, he can't play.

3pt_chucker · Post #40 » by **3pt_chucker** » Mon Aug 17, 2020 8:27 pm

Put TLC instead of Temple. Or maybe TJ
