This is an important game for both the Nets and the Clippers, both are fighting for that last spot. Huge game. Clippers are half a game behind the Warriors and the Nets are in the 8th spot leading by half a game.
Nets win. Yay! Suck on that MrJ. Kidd 23 pts 6 rebs 13 asts Carter 22 pts 4 rebs 4 asts Jefferson 18 pts 12 rebs Moore 13 pts 6 rebs BoxScore Anybody see the stuff by Nachbar? Man it was sexy.
Perfect birthday gift for you. Nachbar dunked on yet another victim. I didn't know he could do that, but he surprised me. With this the Nets are 7th in the East, which is nothing close toa comfortable lead, since the Knicks and Magic are 0.5 games behind them. Still the Nets needed this game and got it. There games this week are PIVOTAL. They play Denver and Orlando. Next week they have Indiana, which is yet another important game.
This was a good win even if it was by a below 500 team and at home. We should be blowing out teams like this, but atleast we got the W.
