Were 2nd in the Atlantic now, with the lost by the Raps 93-90 to the Cavs go NETS!
 
I noticed that. When I heard "the Raptors are back at .500" I was like HOLY SHIT! Nets are 2nd in the Atlantic!
 
yeah i cant believe that. im suprised toronto isnt gettin more notice as being a big underachieving team. they should be A LOT better than what they are, then again maybe i overrated them. before kg i thought they would take the ATL again because i thought they would come out hot while we come out slow (like we always do) w/o krstic being krstic. i thought toronto would grow on their season and playoff (even though they lost to us) and come out firing and running.

i havent watched raptor games, why are they at .500? lack of D? lack of leadership? No O? early deficit like us but cant come back? i mean they have scorers and they have a big in bosh, the hard part is done. they just gotta play together.
 
Raptors were overrated going into the season even though they were ranked behind the Celtics and us. Garbo, and TJ injuries have hurt them along with Andrea not producing. Now he is and they still are loosing which makes you wonder how good they really are.

Us on the other hand have had everyone produce since the new lineup. Malik had been a good producer off the bench and I'm finally happy with Collins play.

Can't wait to see how it keeps rolling.
 
Toronto has a 1st option, 2 good PG's but not a sure scorer at the wing position and thats our huge problem. Thats why the Nets and Celtics will have an advantage on us until then.
 
And Toronto's 1st option can be shutdown by the Nets' last option.

true
but if bosh goes to the basket hes more effective
anyway
you guys should be the 2nd place team, your new starting lineup seems to be working extremely well for you, especially with the presence of Sean Williams

But one of those PG's is out. And Garbajosa is out, as well. Injuries are really hurting your team, and testing your depth.

The basketball gods are being assholes to you guys right about now. Believe me, us Nets fans know how you feel.
 
this is good news. It's definitly gonna be a battle between us and Tornoto to the end for 2nd place in the Atlantic.

I believe ya, and TJ out hurts a lot, cause thats when Calderon is most effective, as a change up. Mitchell also doesn't have the greatest rotation, seeing Joey play today wonders if he is in their to showcase him for a trade, or if he is just lost. We got the Sixers next, should be able to handle them, then again, said that about Cleveland too.

I havent looked at your schedule but how is it in January?
cause we are suppose to have an easy one
8 home
5 away
but 0-2 so far
cause maybe we might jump ahead for a brief period if you have a west coast trip or something
 
we've got 7 road games for the rest of the month...long west coast trip. Then again, we play better on the road it seems
 
Ok i looked at your schedule and you should beat Charlotte Tuesday
then on your long road trip id say 3-3 at worst for you guys

so 4-3 during that road swing, not bad
 
Bargnani is playing like crap this year!

I drafted him on my fantasy team and i hate myself for it.

Perhaps Colangelo is not perfect. Giving Sam Mitchell a contract extension...not a smart idea. Not trading TJ Ford when the market was hot and you had Calderon...not a smart idea. Not having a draft pick in the first round of a great draft...not a smart idea. Letting Garbajosa play in the Eurobasket--under any circumstances...not a smart idea.

your point are true but lets remember where this franchise was before he came in
also
<ul>[*]Sam was coach of the year[*]You can't project TJ was gonna get hurt on a freak play, thought you can say the same in the summer bout trading Calderon[*]Garbo is a weird situation, not touching that one, cause i dont know all the info[/list]
I agree on the draft thing though, even though their were rumor he had Marco Belinelli in a trade ready if Miami picked him

Hopefully TJ Ford can fully recover and get back on the basketball court. It's a shame that he's been seriously hurt twice in his career. He's extremely talented and he's as resilient as they come.

I want him to come back because the Nets can't guard Calderon to save their lives!
