Game Thread GAME# 43: NETS @ BLAZERS - MARCH 23, 2021 - TUESDAY, 7:00 PM, NBCSNW

[DDolla]

Jones arm contusion and will return

 

[illmatic99]

dj is playing. wtf

 

[illmatic99]

this is the exact same way the third quarter started on sunday. WIDE OPEN corner 3

 

[TBpup]

First posession of the 2nd half, Green is open by 20' on a '3'....and stayed that way through the whole shot.

 

[TBpup]

Nice pass CJ...lol. Only missed Enes by 5'. Did you think he was spotting up for a '3'? Because that is such a big part of his arsenal and he does it so often? My goodness....

 

[illmatic99]

CJ is way too low on his handle. dribble with your head up dude

 

[bobf]

That’s how you play harden. Straight up. Deny the drive, foul, kick out. Make him make 3’s just feint at him but never bite.

 

[LayneStaley]

Take CJ out

 

[crandc]

So not a broken arm after all.

 

[James lamphear]

Bad news Covington 5 fouls.

 

[bobf]

If Covington fouls out we’re toast.

 

[B-Roy]

Covington with 5 fouls. Might as well just waive the white flag on defense

 

[illmatic99]

DJ needs to cut like that. I know he's conditioned to just shoot threes by our idiot coach, but there's gold at the rim.

Same as on that kickout where he missed. I wish more of our guys would just pumpfake, and drive in for a dunk.

 

[wizenheimer]

Kanter having a real good game

 

[TBpup]

Props to Dame for his lob passes tonight. Those have been just above miserable for most of the season, but he has thrown some amazing passes to us.

 

[Tince]

Dame, CJ, Hood, Melo, and Kanter... Looking forward to a bunch of lockdown defensive possessions with this crew.

 

[illmatic99]

dont challenge that. save the challenge for roco in the fourth. ugh, this guy is just clueless

 

[bobf]

The later the whistle the more incompetent the ref.

 

[BlazerBeav]

That was the latest bullshit delayed block call ever.

 

[TBpup]

Wow....that is a VERY late whistle on Hood. Even if it is the correct call, players hate that.

 

[James lamphear]

Kanter nice game double double. CJ right now not having a good game.

 

[TBpup]

To be fair, they let Dame get away with a charge on the other end that resulted in a Melo '3', so I can't be too pissed.

 

[B-Roy]

Our defensive rating is 114.9 right now. Even with the personnel, it never amazes me how much we can manage to drag that rating down even further each game. Without RoCo we would probably be worse than Sacramento.

 

[Tince]

dont challenge that. save the challenge for roco in the fourth. ugh, this guy is just clueless

He challenged that?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man our defense is sooooo bad. I never seen anything like this

 

[Natebishop3]

DJJ: plays well

Terry: time to come out Derrick.

 

[bobf]

Hood Melo Gary can’t rebound

 

[bobf]

Man our defense is sooooo bad. I never seen anything like this

Last year

 

[42N8Bounce]

I don’t think there’s a player in the league that I hate watching more than Harden. Gawd.

 

[Tince]

Hard to watch 4 guys on the floor who can't stay in front of their man for more than 1 dribble. The Nets are going to have to try hard to not find a mismatch.
