Houston Rockets @ New Jersey Nets

What would happen if Frank put in Yi to guard Yao the rest of the way?

 

He'd earn that $100,000 kickback he's been getting from the Chinese government to start Yi.

 

Brilliant idea!

 

Frank should have played Lopez instead of Boone.

 

What a completely forgettable game. Nets have to pretend this game didn't happen and was viewed by a gazillion people.

If a reporter asks a Net player what they thought of the game the Net player should answer:

"Game? There was a game tonight? I was out Christmas shopping so I don't know about any game"

 

Though you might disagree, the Nets aren't much better (if any at all) than any other team fighting for the 8th playoff spot

 

Ager scores! He officially joins the Nets 2008-2009 season.

 

Ager > Yi

 

Nets are not a tough team. They'll have success vs the same teams that's weak defending the dribble drive. Harris is too inexperienced to run a real offense.

 

At least CDR isn't looking bad out there.

 

I also want to add, Yao rapes the Knicks everytime. Knicks are Yao's bitch, I was there to see it in person many times.

 

I hate to say this both something has to give with the Nets, I know its a rebuilding year but damm we cant fill seats and out style of play isn't exciting

 

SMH this wasn't pretty.

 

They were playing the 3rd best team in the Western Conference which plays strong defense,

I believe any other team fighting for the 8th playoff spot is better than the Knicks.

 

how do you take 13 more shots than the opponent and lose by 23? That doesn't even seem possible to me. Is our shooting coach still the one that Kidd brought with him?

Man, there is a way to attack Yao on offense. They should have kept running that high pick and roll play where Yao drops back into the paint and gives up the open jumper almost all the time. Nets didn't really attack him enough this way. There poor outside shooting didn't help either.

 

Nets are 2.0 games ahead. Like I said, they aren't much better.

Indiana and Toronto are only 3 games back with 10-17 records.

And it's not bad the Nets lost. It's bad that they didn't come in with a high intensity level knowing that they were playing the 3rd best team in the West.

 

Well, we Chinese people are constantly in fear of black children jumping at us from the shadows. Can't blame Yao for that. Nate is a little devil.

Rox won that game though.

 

I blame Frank for this. The guy is a great coach off the timeouts, but sometimes I don't know why he does everything the hard way.
