Game thread. yay basketball is back after the break.

No KD or Green for the Nets. Blake wont play tonight either.

Smart/Langford back for Boston

Assume Harden/Kyrie are both playing we should win this one.

They have played better... although some of their wins were kinda wonky. bareley escaped toronto without siakim, van vleet, and a few coaches. Beal handed them a game stepping out of bounds

We are also due to lay an egg.and who knows how kyrie/Harden come back after the ASG. i could see a letdown.

but if we play a standard average game for us then we should win

I took that bet. Feel good about it too.

Gut assumption would be a light workload for Smart tonight. But then again he was out a couple weeks longer than initially projected. That could mean it was a challenging recovery, or it could mean they gave him all the time he needed to get to 100%, and he's good to go. Guess we'll find out.

Would be stunned if Langford sees the court, or provides anything of value if he does.

Why's Blake out?

I think Smart makes a big difference for them.

And no Durant or Green, and Blake being unavailable, means we’re pretty thin right now. Hopefully, Claxton and Deandre bring their A games, Thompson and Theis can be a handful.

The Nets want to ramp him up for game action since he has been sidelined for a bit.

Excited to see Claxton and Brown this game, especially Claxton. Celtics are certainly going to limit Smart, they called it a calf strain but it looked similar to an achilles type injury. You have to be really careful with that.

We also have the chance to take the lead in standings ... Lets gooooooo!!! :rock:

Excited for this game.

Wish they would throw Blake out there for 5-10 min.

Also wish we had Green the x-factor tonight. A few buckets from him would help against a team of xfactors.

Can't wait.

Long time Nets fan here. Still cant believe this is happening!

Though I cheer for my boys come rain or shine as always, I have felt a loss with this game for a while. I hope I am wrong, go Nets!

Is there any way you can edit the title to add YES?

My TV guide says it's on YES and TNT, is that a mistake?

Lastly it sux that there's still no Durrant and no Griffin either. Why no Griffin?

Awful start.

What's your favorite of the six Nets uniforms?

Mine is the traditional ABA sky blue. Reminds me of my favorite player EVER, Dr. J
