<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The Nets will play their next four games–against the Hawks, Wizards, Celtics and Hornets–at home, then after a trip to Boston, will play another two at the IZOD Center. It’s a friendly schedule quirk and one the Nets will need to take advantage of if they’re going to reverse their history of slow starts. To do so, however, a few Net players, including Vince Carter and Boki Nachbar, will have to reverse slow starts of their own.</div></p> Getting Inside</p>
It'd be great if we could start fast instead of the perennial early-season-slump. Besides the Hornets I could see the other three games being pretty difficult, however. At least so far we've won twice what we've lost </p>
hawks nearly beat detroit in detriot. looks like there's very few week teams in the nba this season (so far)
Yep, Nets definitely need to start this season differently than previous seasons. No more 9-12 starts and stuff like that. Hopefully the Toronto game was enough to make sure the Nets take defending home court seriously.</p>
this is where the foundation starts. we must take control at home and show that when you come to the IC its a tough play to get a road win. back in the day this was the perfect senario, bunch of home games where we could just run up and down the court. with vince's thumb messed up we need everyone to come out motivated for 48mins and control the game from the start and rack up some W's even though we have tough opponents coming in. we cannot afford to get behind the 8ball this year or we will once again be fighting uphill</p>
Hornets are tough when healthy. Peja on the perimeter, West on the inside. Paul creating. Chandler being the defensive erasor. We better protect homecourt with our annual Thanksgiving West Coast Swiing looming.</p>
