GT: Nets @ Magic 7:00pm 3/15/22 (YES Network) 

Post#1 » by MrDollarBills » Tue Mar 15, 2022 1:21 pm

Lets be optimistic folks, we have won 3 in a row and at least for tonight we've got our dynamic duo in the line up together

Image

Image

While we wait for Ben to make his debut(?), Bruce Brown Jr. has been on fire in the "Ben" role, averaging 14/6/3 on 52/43/75 with a TS% of 60%. I cannot emphasize enough how well Bruce is playing on both ends. KD is the engine that makes this train move but Bruce has been a rock for us and is playing with maximum confidence.

Image

Can't understate Seth and Big Dre. We need these guys for a championship run. Dre does a ton of dirty work and helps keep us from giving up multiple possessions defensively. Seth's 16ppg on a scorching hot 45% from deep is a must have in our line up.

Orlando is a team we can't sleep on at all. Screw their record, the Magic have a group of dynamic young guards (Cole Anthony is solid imo) and Franz Wagner is a stud forward who will probably develop into an all star over the next few years.

That being said, we need to handle business here.

Franz Wagner owns the nets and oddly has locked KD down when put on him. I dont need curry back tonight but this cant turn into another multi-week injury or we are F'd.

We beat the hornets by 30, sixer by 30... need to make another 30 point blowout statement again tonight. show the league KD/Kyrie are locked in

Hopefully rest KD or not strain him so much... he gotta watch the minutes down the stretch or else we know what would happen.

Seth is questionable. I hope he can go. We need to keep winning

and yep, Wagner is absolutely a problem. Dude is 6'10 and quick so he can absolutely cause KD trouble.

I watched Orlando play against Philly and they're the worst team in the league for a reason. They do play with energy though. We need to bring it. Hopefully Seth is available. We need all the shooting we can get.

We also know that we haven't won the 2nd game of a B2B all season. I don't expect that to change so we need to take care of business today.

Need Kyrie to go off today. Play him a ton of minutes. Get KD some rest.

Cannot lose this game at all. Not feeling good about tomorrow. So today needs to be a win.

Not surprising but Cam and Seth are out. Our luck this year is hilarious.

Seth is listed as out with ankle soreness. Knowing our staff, he'll probably have surgery after 2-3 weeks of mystery quotes from Nash.

Let's go Brooklyn! Keep up the momentum from the last 3, stay locked in and handle business against a pesky bottom feeder.

Kyrie looks super locked in as is cooking.

Team as whole need to keep that same energy.

With KD and KAI it feels like 120+ pts a game is guaranteed. :lol:

I thought it was a 7:30 start so I missed the best offensive quarter in the Nets' history :lol:

Is it fair to say Nash has taken a step forward a coach. I haven't really had much to complain about and his rotations are light year's better than they were even a month ago.

Yes, I know it helps to have KD and KAI being insanely good.

Nope. This is KD and Kyrie providing Nash proof basketball

Kyrie not going to the line 10+ times is a crime. Yet we have tools like Biid foul baiting getting benefit of a doubt.

I mean it's clear as day dude not even looking for fouls.
