Cam is the new Harden

This Cam dude is a steal in this years draft.

What an amazing comeback! Wow. Future is bright with the Nets.

Major props to Seth Curry and Mills who made timely buckets, James Johnson was only 90/10 Jekyll & Hyde in the late 3rd/4th, LMA the midrange god and Drummond for a 11/20 statline.

And of course to KILLA CAM!!!

Let's not forget, Drummond was a BEAST on the boards! So refreshing to see that we no longer get abused in this area.

He displayed plenty of IQ in this quarter when he baited the Knicks into giving LMA repeated open looks.

I know that and it's a promising sign. But he repeatedly takes bad shots without reading the floor. Sometimes you can be too talented, where any shot can look like a good one, so you just keep chucking. Growing a brain will be very important for his development. Otherwise, I can't see him being any better than JR Smith

As I MUST say every time people write us off and crucify Nash for everything whenever we go down big but then make a big comeback to steal the game later...what do we think about Nash now? Does he get zero credit for erasing a 28 point lead with a severely depleted roster? Or only the blame for going down 28 in the first place?

I mean, how many head coaches trust a rookie's hot hand in crunch time, over a proven vet like Curry? Want to talk about adjustments, how about recognizing how the Knicks were defending Cam Thomas on the high PnR, keeping Aldridge in the game so that we have another great shooter that Cam could get the ball to in case he got trapped, and then just spamming that play over and over again in the 4th so that either Cam or Aldridge could make a big bucket, since the Knicks couldn't stop it to save their lives? How about trusting Aldridge so much when Drummond had given us such a big spark in the 3rd quarter, and it turning out to be the right call?

But nah, everything bad is his fault, everything good has nothing to do with him. At least that's the narrative the board runs with every single game.

JR Smith was a key role player on a championship team that upset the 73 win Warriors. I'll take that.

How about start Cam with Mills and Curry to begin the game?

People are upset because of that first half. Nash rode the hot hand and i credit him but come on. He played into Thibs hands in the first half by starting three non shooters. It's just erratic

Can't wait to have all our guys back.

Guys, am I being too optimistic in assuming that we could potentially have Kai, KD and Ben play against the Bucks 10 days from now or is that too farfetched?

Uh... he's been beyond awful for a litany of general and specific reasons that people here have been pointing out over many months?

Like dude,
what answer were you expecting to hear, honestly?

Thibs gave the game away by sitting Quickly in the 4th quarter. Had he sat down Randle and Founier, the Nets lose by double digits easy. Nash had nothing to do with this win

KD is prob back by then. Ky should be good.

Question is Simmons. No idea when he will feel mentally ready. Hopefully soon.

Cam started the game 1-9 from the floor. We only have two genuine 3pt shooters on this roster right now: Patty and Seth. But they're defensively subpar and small, starting Cam with them gives us one of the worst defensive units. Cam did brilliantly in the 4th but this was a team win, Bruce Brown hustle at the end was a huge play.
