Should be interesting -- worst offense (80.9 PPG for NJN) versus worst defense (104.5 PPG given up for us). Which one gives? On the plus side, Nets are averaging losing by -11.5 points a night, second worst in the league. We so should be able to take this one, but games against bad teams always worry me as a Wizards fan.

Uh their's no way New Jersey is going to be able to score enough points to beat the Wiz.

Boston only allowed 86ppg coming into todays game and the Wiz dropped 100 on em through 4.

New Jersey in my mind would have to totally shut down our offense to win. I think we could get by with only having 3 good quarters and still winning this game.

Keep in mind, New Jesey was visited by Seattle last night, a team that was averaging 103.5 points on the season and had only finished in the double digits twice all year. Although Seattle won pretty easily it seems, they only managed 79 points in that game.

That's not to say it's impossible to go off on them; we should just be prepared for the possibility of one of our lesser offensively-dominating games. And if they drag us into their style of play and we only score somewhere in the 80's, our bad defense may let them be right in it.

Overlooking a bad team when we aren't exactly a championship contender ourselves is a quick way to pick up a loss in what should be a relatively easy win.

We can be a good defensive team, we just need to learn how to keep an even keel throughout the game and not give up one huge quarter. We should win this game but a loss wouldn't be too suprising because we dont seem to be a good road team.

I think the keys to the game is to force Jefferson to take outside shots and to shut down Zo, if those two things happen, which is easily possible, i dont think the nets can win.

[jazzy1]

The 2 things the Nets got going is RJ and Zo and we got good defenders for both in Haywood and JJ.

We should win by 10 points or so.

Eric Williams worries me some but we gotta win this game.

[eYeKey]

This should be an easy 'W' which why this game scares the begeezous out of me. Hopefully we can leave East Rutherford with a record > .500

[CP26]

I'm scared of that Zorac Planavic guy, he can really shoot the 3

NetsDaily Preview

Should be another ugly Nets game. Nets have not been taking care of the ball, but their defense has improved every time out.

I'll be there tonight, so I should have some pics tomorrow.
