Not really a big deal. 20 pts, 11 asts, +6


Yeah but like why? So bizarre.

Definitely feels like its happened quite a bit this season.

The box score shows TLC with 6 fouls. Yet he is on the floor still

I can't call it. I don't think it's some sign that he's becoming Deron Williams 2.0 tho. He played good tonight outside of the 6 TOs

So funny how Prok never comments during the game. Probably sits there watching while taking notes.

Then unloads after the game ends. :lol:

Good win over a good team, still frustrating how we still can't get any separation even though we shot 10% better from the field.

King - Nate McMillan for playing TLC the whole 4th quarter

They adjusted the box score. Lol.

Nic the savior. Honestly his defense and activity in the fourth was the reason they won

This was a great win to be honest. The Nets defense was solid in that 4th. It looks like this is our identity right now. We're going to have to rely on our defense and hope that KD and Harden can pull us through

Even Harden just admitted that the spacing is terrible. We're going to have to really hunker down on being a defensive, ugly win club

Great win. Claxton and Cam were huge in 3rd to change the tide and feel of this game. KD and Harden were excellent in the 4th Q.

Marks needs to sit down and ask Kyrie where he would be interested in playing at around the league. A huge reason we are struggling because we have 30% of our salary cap not playing.

Time to go. If we can get someone like CJ McCollum in a multi team deal let's do it.

That was a nice win. Nic on Trae was the key.

Agreed great win.

I would feel better about being a defensively focused team if we actually generated some offense from turnovers and transition, you can definitely win that way (see bubble Lakers). For us, it feels like we can get the other team to miss but then they'll also get the offensive board a decent amount of the time too, just frustrating basketball. The work in progress goes on.

Great great win, the fourth quarter defense was tremendous and Claxton pretty much shut Young down. With Claxton, he is our key to facing the younger teams that love switching and moving around. If Claxton played against the Warriors, I don't think Warriors would have won that game, yes, he is a big difference maker.

Yes Clax is huge since he brings something we don't have. Millsap, Blake and LMA are all too slow.

18-8. This is without Harris and we just got Claxton back. If we can add some more players for Kyrie I think we can really turn the corner

I think we need to push the pace, but neither Harden or KD play that way

The big rotation should be LMA/Claxton/Johnson
