Dallas Mavericks @ New Jersey Nets

[pegs]

Wow. Offense is dead. No one wants to shoot, so they give it to the rookie to shoot...and he airballs it.

We're completely coming off track, once again. Perfect time for a time out...

I just hope Frank is actually telling them something, and giving them plays with sure-fire ways to score.

Or maybe he should insert Swift for Vince, for some instant points off the bench (which he usually did in Memphis).

 

[pegs]

Um. A Dallas player tapped it back. How was that not backcourt?

Ah, Krstic is back. I wonder if he'll make something happen...

Yes! Krstic, offensive rebound, and gets the foul. That looked pretty good to me. His stroke at the foul line looks good as ever.

 

[NOMAM]

Ack. Malik is in the game. Put in Swift!

 

[Major Juggs]

Free throw looks niiiice. God, I've missed that kind of touch.

 

[NOMAM]

Please take out Malik! Put in Swift.

 

[pegs]

Good job, Allen. That's some nice shitty defense.

Wow. Take Carter out. Please. The offense looks like shit, and it seems like no one else wants the ball when he's in.

Whoa. Carter got hit! I hope he sits out for the rest of the game, he isn't helping at all.

 

[Major Juggs]

Carter and Jefferson to don matching eye patches?

 

[guitarzan]

Man VC. Everything looks bad, his ballhandling, his stroke, finishing around the rim. When was the last time he shot 10 free throws in a game? That should be automatic.

 

[Universe]

What the eff is Jefferson doing?! Ussually when you get off the All-Star roster, you prove you should be on it rather than suck balls.

 

[pegs]

No box-out from Krstic. No attempt to rebound the ball from either Krstic or Malik. Depressing.

 

[NOMAM]

This is sad. Mavs building a 9 point lead with Dirk on the bench. Nets bench players come into the game and offense and defense goes to hell.

 

[Major Juggs]

Goddamn. We are shit without Kidd, Carter or Boone.

 

[GMJ]

Starting to get ugly already? I was hoping the Nets could at least sustain some quality level of play until at least halftime

If you're gonna put in Swift, it'd be a good idea to put Josh in, as well. Him and Sean are the only players who can box out at this point.

 

[stro6swift]

It's starting to look ugly out there...

 

[RUstrong]

Frank went with the worst combination of players I could think of:
Armstrong, RJ, Boki, Malik, Krstic

 

[Universe]

Sean Williams would have made Barea into a Youtube video but instead Malik turns it into two.

[NOMAM]

Why does Malik get so much floor time?

I swear he's lost out there on the floor. I'd rather see Swift lost out there.

 

[GMJ]

MALIK good god that wasn't horrible defense, that was zero defense!

Welcome to Nets Basketball!

You'll learn to love it.

 

[NOMAM]

Starters come back in and get it back on track a little. But don't worry, the bench will be back to screw things up again!

 

[GMJ]

These recent Nets possessions really show how valuable Vince is out there. Right now he's the only one who can do anything.

 

[Major Juggs]

Remember when Carter used to posterize people in that situation?

I like the talent on that team though, but 6 and a half minutes to score a basket was pretty depressing.

Carter is back and looking good out there!

Sure. But does it matter if the ball goes through the hoop either way?

 

[NOMAM]

Really, how much longer do we have to put up with seeing Malik getting floor time over Swift? Malik looks like the recent player acquisition with how lost he looks out there.

 

[pegs]

Finally! RJ goes down low, gets the And-1! That's exactly what I'd like to see from him on the offensive end.

 

[stro6swift]

Kidd for 3!

Nice push to take the lead before the half.

 

[GMJ]

This is the most bi-polar team in the league. I can't explain why we can't just play like this consistently.
