Kristic was amazing. I think we is a pretty valuable part to the team. He may get overlooked quite a bit though.
Nets are holding down a 3 point halftime lead..I love how they are attacking the basket..VC is playing a terrific all around game with 18 pts on 7-10 shooting and 8 rebounds as well as 6 assists to match...Good start, lets keep it up and win this pivotal game 5!!
Nets take game 5 to grab onto a 3-2 series lead heading back to Indiana behind a big game from Carter and the supporting cast..Lets close it out Thursday!!
to add to Carter's points, he also had 15 rebounds and 7 assists..Lets see what you VC haters have to say about his game..
After a 96-90 win, the Nets have advanced to the second round to face the winner of the Miami/Chicago series..
Let me take this oppurtunity to give a lot of credit to Anthony Johnson for the job he has done this series. I am the biggest Kidd fan you will ever find, and I will tell you right now that Johnson flat-out outplayed him this series. He played incredible and kept his team in it although they faced injury problems and were, in my opinion overmatched. Johnson came out tonight in an elimination situation and put up 40 points, one short of an Indiana Pacers' playoff record held by, yeah you guessed it, Reggie Miller..Props to Johnson for a great game and a great series..
AJ was amazing in the series, and outplayed Kidd, but the Nets overall effort beat the Pacers. I give the Pacers lots of credit, as they did play their hearts out, but the Nets just overpowered them.
Anthony Johnson made a name for himself in this series. I mean he's never scored 30 points in his life before his 40 point night last night. He's a wily vet and is a good mentor for the young guys on your team.
