Nice pump fake by Brook Lopez to stick JO into foul trouble. That's always a worry when Jermaine's playing well. Hopefully Bargs can continue to play some solid spot minutes.
They've alternated playing stretches of great defense and great offense, but I've yet to see both happen at the same time. Hopefully they can close out the quarter with more consistency and build a bigger lead.
Holy crap, Bosh is humiliating himself out there. He gets posterized by Lopez and turns the ball over consecutive times.
Fuck Bosh, what the hell do you expect? Stop bitching because you're not getting superstar calls and start playing with your head for once.
Nets up by 1 at half time. I'm actually surprised that we've managed to give up so many highlight plays without getting discouraged.
Poor defensive rebounding and stubborn-headed arrogance on the offensive end did the Raptors in during the 2nd quarter. We're playing good defense and rotating well (I love Triano's emphasis on switching on picks), but we bail the Nets out by giving up easy rebounds. Bosh can't see 3 people clogging the lane and think that's a situation where he should drive to the basket. That's just selfish, dumb basketball. Part of the reason our offensive sets were so weak was because we kept forcing it into Bosh, when NJ was clearly overcompensating against him. Play off him!
That was clearly a 3 by Calderon. No foul on Bosh though IMO. Take it like a man instead of bitching to the refs.
