    this game looks like it will be on Dame's teammates because the Nets are doubling and trapping Dame every time he touches the ball. That's been the Blazer kryptonite for 5 years.

    Nets looks like the team with desperation. This team is soft like the coach.

    You are right, they are playing for nothing playoff seeding wise, but clearly they are playing to win. But keep on thinking whatever makes you feel better

    Yep, he's outplaying Nurk the 2nd time in a row in a must win game. Whiteside deserves credit

    If they didn't care and were just there for "exercise" they wouldn't be trapping Dame and playing ball denial with him. Come on man, yeah we should be doing better but the Nets came to play at least in the first quarter.

    The nets have the same record as us in the bubble, they are playing well as a team.

    Nurk is rushing his footwork needs to slow down and get better body control before he shoots

    Nets are playing to ruin Portland and Damian's reputation thats all the motivation they need.
