Nets v. Bucks | 3.31.2022 @ 7:30 PM on TNT/YES

Starters:
** Brooklyn **
Seth Curry
Kyrie Irving
Bruce Brown
Kevin Durant
Andre Drummond

** Bucks **
Jrue Holiday
Greyson Allen
Kris Middleton
Giannis Attentakoumpo
Bobby Portis

Injuries:
Joe Harris - OUT (Ankle)
Ben Simmons - OUT (Back)
Lamarcus Aldridge - OUT (Hip)
Seth Curry - Day to Day (Ankle)
Deandre Bembry - OUT (Surgery)
Giannis Attentakoumpo- Day to Day (Ankle)

Bucks are healthy and playing relatively well when Giannis is in the lineup. Beating us and hoping to push us to the 9 seed is a motivator for them, so they dont see us in the first round potentially. If we come out like we did vs the pistons, we will lose by 40. Need that intensity we had vs the sixers and heat.

Nash needs to go regardless

Lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooo! (or whatever)

This one I would sit Curry out... I don't think we can win tbh but give Curry more rest over his ankle injury....

Play Cam more in this one.

Funny thing, I would also say rest KD but that ain't happening

I hope KD and Kyrie are ready for a 46 minute workload from that idiot Nash

Meanwhile, you know how many mins Giannis plays a game? 32.

This game should be interesting. We probably try Drummond on Giannis. We haven't seen that on the Nets. We're probably going with 2 non-shooters on the floor at all times - which is terrifying against Milwaukee.

This is a potential first round matchup but Milwaukee is the main team I don't wanna see lol

It would be nice to win but probably shouldn't show all your best cards (in terms of strategy, if Nash has one) in a regular season game, but if KD and KI are on-fire we'll probably win it anyway.

I don't think this is a good matchup for Drummond.

Saying this is a must win game useless, every game right now due to circumstances is a must win. We made our own bed and have to deal with it.

Punk ass Kyrie better have A+ games evrytime. This clown ass moron is direct and main reason why we have to deal with this crap. He already showing some disinterest, imagine if he'll get paid with guaranteed money? These Kyrie fans better comprehend what disaster they forcing us into if his contract fully guaranteed and can't be waived. THIS IS NOT POPULAR OPINION but it'll be right thing to demand 100% commitment from him even if his contract not guaranteed at all.

I'm a Nets fan, I don't care for specific player even if his name is Kyrie. I learn that lesson decade ago with J.Kidd and D.Will. Kyrie will be forgotten in couple years by most. He better deliver championship here or it'll get ugly for him. Not that he cares by any means, he don't even care for these guys that cheer and go to fight for him. Sad thing they don't even get it.

I'm pissed right now after no news on Ben and what we going to face. It won't be pretty.

We actually did see it, and it was effective. We beat the bucks with just Kyrie after the drummond trade.

It's a regular season game without BK. Lopez. Can he be used during short spurts here and there, sure. To say he'll be solid rotation guy who'll make difference or to expect anything is laughable. Playoffs is a different animal and it's game planned. I'm not holding my breath here.

Blake can be a difference maker. He was huge last year vs same team.

During lunch break I had conversation with ortho Dr who spilled some opinions. Let's say let's hope those ain't the cases. Every person is different and their body react to things differently. I'm talking myself into it right now.

Kyrie is in a weird funk ever since he has to play at home. He needs a get right game badly.
