Great job as usual ToddMacCulloch11. :clap: I feel if we play defense we can win because the Phoenix Suns mainly rely on their offense. Stick with Shawn Marion and Steve Nash mainly. If we play defense and shoot over 45% I think this game is ours. :cheers:

If we play defense and shoot over 45% I think this game is ours. :cheers:

As opposed to playing no defense and shooting 54%. :curse:

Isn't that what happened tonight?

 

[justasking?]

Isn't that what happened tonight?

Yeah.. The team shot .538 but defense was non-existent.

 

[7M3]

I'll be attending this game.

I'll be attending this game.

Lucky. Will you be able to take pictures? If so please post them up. :cheers:

 

[Dooch]

Just refreshing the game thread for tonight... Go Nets!! :cheers:

 

[Nets0701]

I thought Kurt starts not James Jones?

 

[Noodfan]

Man I don't wanna be 5-7. It will be a big disadvantage for morale if happens.

 

[HB]

Hey Todd how do you know Vince will be playing and if Collins will be starting over Collins

 

[ToddMacCulloch11]

Hey Todd how do you know Vince will be playing and if Collins will be starting over Collins

I was just guessing. I figured if there was talk about Vince maybe going for the last game, he'd be going by now.

 

[ToddMacCulloch11]

I thought Kurt starts not James Jones?

I just put in the lineup they used for the last game.

 

[Sad Mafioso]

This could get ugly in a hurry. Phoenix likes to play small ball and i'm not sure the Nets really can keep up with them.

 

[Noodfan]

Hey Todd were you slow this time about game topic?

 

[Dooch]

We have to somehow find a way to keep up with and contain Shawn Marion and Steve Nash. They also have other role players like Boris Diaw and Eddie House who have been contributing. I've been looking at the box scores and Eddie House one time led the Phoenix Suns in scoring with 31 points so we have to be prepared for a hard fought game.

 

[JCB]

Vaughn is going to have to come in at sometime during this game. Kidd can't keep up w/nash and McInnis can't either. I suggest a lineup of:

Vaughn
Kidd
Carter (if he plays)
Jefferson
Krstic

this will also allow RJ to play on Marion, instead of Robinson or Collins or Padgett.

these damn West Coast games start too late. :curse:

hey! I should be the one complaining in here!
at least you can watch the game on tv.....

guys, they're not gonna show the game here in Canada, so I rely on you....

please don't post only things that I can see on the play by play...

let me know more details other than the stats, like... for example...do they look confident... or anxious..
is someone letargic?....reactions from the bench... what's the energy level... are they complaining too much with the refs?

so that I can have a better feeling for the game and what's going on....

hope you get my point! :banana:
