That's the second horrible entry pass by Smart to Brown. I have no idea what he thinks he's doing lol. That pass had 0 chance to go to anyone other than the Nets Bruce Brown lol

Offense looking like 1st half of the season Celtics. Defense still looking good though.

Eventually those two stars are gonna start scoring. Really missing a chance to be up 10-14 right now.

If we don't get some shots falling when Tatum comes back, Nets will be primed for a take over when all things settle. We need to take advantage of the defense.

We've giving the Nets defense a pass with ugly possessions. JB and Smart have to be better in the half court.

All these tip attempts by Al will turn into tinelord swoop and slams soon hopefully. Brooklyn weak on the glass.

Like I said we need the role players to step up this series. Grant, White, and PP can’t come up short this series. Need them to he difference makers.

We should be leading by 7-10 points... And if this game keeps up the way it's going now we will be soon.

Man, we really wasted a lot of great defensive possessions by not scoring on the other end. If the Nets come out of this quarter with the lead despite all the turnovers they've had and their two main guys not scoring as much, it's gonna boost their morale...

Feel like we blew one of the best defensive quarters I've seen
