    Nets play small so Collins will probably get fucked out of the rotation tonight.

    I think that will be because of the addition of Kanter, not the opponent.

    I also don't understand why harkless still plays. He is so bad on offense

    ......Collins scored 4 points against GS. Not exactly inspiring confidence there......

    They're not in the same level as ours and we shouldn't make excuses for ourselves. They're maybe not bad, they're maybe overachieving, but we have much more talent and need to win this going away.
    The only real reason not to is having to incorporate some new faces but if we play strong from start to finish, we're the better team

    Collins' defense turned a nail-biter into a blowout. Inspiring indeed!

    This game could dictate our road record. If we win 4-3 record easy.

    Collins should be in the rotation against most teams. Shit, he may even be in the rotation tonight. Benching him after the warriors game sends the wrong message, don’t care if they signed Kanter. They can play with each other. Maybe they go with 11 tonight with Harkless getting vonlehd, where he only plays in the beginning of both halves.

    I think that will be Meyers more so than Collins...though Stotts will want to play Layman at the 4 with Kanter so that will effect Collins play time too

    Likely. However, with the reputation for defensive deficiencies held by several of our bench players, and the tendency leaguewide toward longer, taller lineups, a bench crew of Turner/Hood/Layman/Collins/Kanter would definitely have some value in certain situations. If I were Stotts, Curry and Collins would be 10/11th men, used situationally with the other 4 depending on matchups and scenarios.

    Fair enough; his defense was indeed very good.

    Dame is such a great guy. I don't see KD or Westbrook out there coaching the Special Olympics.
