    Their 3 point defense is great so far. Why is it so tough for our concrete footed players?

    just when i thought a lead was building, 2 straight 3s allowed. Why can't we just build a lead man.

    Well when you have two 7 footers and a 36 year old at the 3-5, and CJ... it’s gonna be hard to close out.

    If that’s true we will see LeVert, Allen, and Harris sit the second half.

    They literally are playing for nothing. It’s just exercise for them. You would think blazers playing in their game 7 would be demolishing them off the gates

    I wonder how long it’s going to take to get a free throw. Seems like the Nets are getting away with some pretty physical defense.

    Its clear they want the ball out of Dames hands. He will still probably get his, but he aint getting no 50 points this time. Its up to the rest to hit there open shots and so far they haven't been great at it, especially Nurk.

    I think this quarter shows why Damian had to score 51 and 61 the last 2 games. Sure, CJ is doing good, but lordy...does this team realize if they lose they're done?

    How the fuck are we tied with this glorified AAU team?


    They DO understand that they need to win, right?

    They're not playing like they don't care. They are swarming Dame.
