Interesting game... we have to win this game... not because its a "must win" but because you can't lose to the worst team in the league when they are on the tail end of a back-to-back.

Cunningham is back from injury, but may sit/rest or be limited with the B2B

Nets have the raptors sunday and could easily look past the pistons to that bigger tougher matchup. last year, this is 100% a game we would letdown and lose.

I agree that Detroit will likely again sit Cade since it's night 2 of a B2B.

Killian looks like a disruptive defender, but James had a solid game against them on Halloween. He's getting a bit healthier each day, so I would expect a large mismatch here.

Joe let Saddiq get hot from 3 last time, but he gave great effort on D against Atlanta. If he can carry that over to Friday's game, he can convincingly win this matchup.

Kevin blanketed Jerami and should do it again.

The have size and athleticism at the 5 to give us grief. Nash is alright with giving up some boards, for the added switchability and range of small ball C's.

Let's hope for another full-game effort on both ends. GO NETS!

The Heat getting trounced by the Celtics last night should serve as a reminder to not take any team lightly and come out prepared. It kind of looks like the Pistons are going the Sixer's "process" route.

It will be interesting to see if Olynick lit a fire and have KD looking for payback. I would not be surprised if he put up 50 tonight.

Must win game for the reasons Prok pointed out.

Claxton definitely didn't look right to start the season, so hopefully he's over his sickness and get his conditioning right soon

Mike Adams -10 minutes ago on CNN

" I’m huge Brooklyn Nets and Kyrie fan , but there will be no changes in New York City Covid policy, it’s up to Kyrie and NBA to figure this thing out "

Guess no Kyrie after all , should be easy W tonight though, Lets Go Nets

Man Harden has been brutal. He’s had better games recently, but still feel like he’s so dependent on the whistle, and when he doesn’t get it, he lives and dies by the 3.

And you’re gonna have to deal with a bunch of bad TOs.

Harden looks awful to start this game. Wow. Just zero explosion at the rim.

I told yall he wasn't going to change anything for Kyrie. Adams is a huge vaccine proponent

Kyrie needs to suck it up.

But I will say this: at least Kyrie isn't as bad as Aaron Rodgers. Now that dude? He's a straight up scumbag

Not sure I remember a worse 3 minute stretch from a player in a long time. In that stretch Harden threw the ball into the stands, caught his own layup attempt for another turnover, got his pocket picked resulting in an uncontested bucket for Detroit, got a wide open layup attempt blocked and followed it up with a defensive foul. Wow..

That was an excellent defense on those last two possessions.

Detroit ran off of Patty to double Durant and they paid dearly for it. Please keep leaving Mills open yall
