No game thread again?...I feel the Nets will come out and play great tonight after yesterday's comeback. I sure hope so...I want to see this team start to get on a consistent run of 4 or 5 wins. They certainly can with the schedule coming up in the next week or two (Bucks, Kings, Grizz, Thunder, etc.)..Brook is settling in very nicely now and it seems like just about everybody (well almost) is contributing in some way or another, whether big or small...I do not want to lose to Wade again...It's just a matter of trying to contain him to under 30 pts and keep their three point shooters in check...If D. Cook goes off on us again, i swear to god... Nets 98-93
Re: Nets at Miami tonight 1/3/2009 (16-17) vs (17-14) Streak Nets: Won 1 Heat: Lost 1 Last Result Nets: Hawks 91 @ Nets 93 Heat: Heat 76 @ Magic 86 Starting Lineup Stat Leaders Points Harris 23.7 Rebounds Lopez 8.0 Assists Harris 6.6 Starting Lineup Stat Leaders Points Wade 28.8 Rebounds Marion 9.2 Assists Wade 7.0
the good news is the nets are winning by 8 at half without harris. And, VC only has 7 so i expect him to go off in the second half. Meanwhile Wade is having a terrible half and i also expect him to go off in the second half as well as get many phantom calls as well. Boone looked good and dooling is doing well in his starting role. Yi has 5 points and a few boards in a very quite role. He seems to do well against the heat and their small line. Maybe this will be another one of his good games... Maybe...
thats the thing with him...you almost never notice when he's out there/does anything. There are times where they'll have a lineup out there in the 4th, and I'll forget Yi is even on the team.
Lopez is getting the shit hacked out of him down there. I was actually going to say Yi is playing pretty solid, until that last sequence...bad 3 and just let Wade go right past and dunk.
