Man, reading all your posts, I thought the Nets were getting thier butt beaten. Final Score: Nets 96, Utah 89.
Vince didn't play so well early on, he was 7-20 at one point, but it's good that he made 3 of his last 4 shots, and got to the line. New Jersey did well defensively against the Utah big's, who I thought would've have good games on them. Boozer did fairly well all-round, but his scoring wasn't there volume wise.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">BTW, do the Nets have no fans or something? All I could hear in that arena were the crickets....</div> Werd. By some camera shots, the arena didn't even look half full. Nets deserve more fans, so that's pretty much why they are moving. If fans don't want to appreciate them then they might as well leave. I was really getting mad at Carter for all his missed shots, but in crunchtime he stepped it up. RJ recovered from his game in Miami by adding 23 points. Kidd scored at good times but had only 2 asts? Wright really stepped up and gave us a good 15 pts.
Wow, everyone underestimated the Nets, Utah hasn't been able to beat them in so long, well maybe last game last year, but they have Utah's number. I don't know how but VC just always eats us alive. I wasn't expecting a 5-0 start but when I got home to see it a close game, I was suprised. From what I hear, our whole front court had a bad game and C.J. Miles was wearing his diaper. Sloan also was playing Milisap instead of Boozer, stupid move on his part. Well deserved win for the Nets.
