Let's just presume the Nets will continue to lose. Let's presume they'll be winless when they face the Warriors on Dec 9. Who here thinks the Warriors will hand this team their first win?
The Nets are horrific I can see them quitting after the first half. Monta Ellis is going to have his way against anyone trying to defend him.
I don't think so, since Jackson left the Warriors have been beating the teams they're supposed to. They came out flat a few times but I think that's more from the brutal schedule they've had and being shorthanded than anything else. For years, you always had to wonder "Which Warriors team is going to show up tonight?". But lately it appears they show up to play just about every night. Last year I would have said a Nets game would have "trap" written all over it, but I think they will win, and easily, even without Randolph and Biedrins. If Monta is going to go for 50, this is the game to do it in. And the other thing is the Nets have a real interest in continuing to tank 100% at this point. They're almost guaranteeing themselves a top 3 draft pick.
My point is that the Warriors have a knack for letting this kind of thing happen to them. They like to give career nights to no-names. I wouldn't be surprised if they lost, but I would expect them to beat this team.
Oh God, I hope they win before they play us. I know the Warriors are retarded and will probably lose.
Nets are home against the Warriors <dramatic flourish>. Home teams win over 60% of the time. Yi is coming back. I'd take the Nets .
