Game 5: Nets at Cavs

[Legacy]

Kidd is playing great so far. Good sign to see him take over the game early.

NJ has to step up their game. cleveland has played on a subpar level in this series and the nets are still having trouble. like the last game neither team wanted that win. that game was about who wanted it the least.
you better hope Carter dosnt opt out and sign with the Heat.

Did Boone just airball that freethrow?

Edit: Crap......this was supposed to be my preview turn.

Man that'd be a dream come true, too bad we've wasted our money on Antoine Walker and Shaq's 100 million dollar deal.

Changing back to Kidd huh Merc?

We're playing great so far in the first half. Lets continue this play in the second.

How many games do you think this series will go and who will win? I got New Jersey in 7.

Nets are pulling a "Chicago" on the Cavs. I'm praying to god that we win this series.

Yup.

Williams and Moore are idiotic twins.

How do you get the ball stolen and give Gibson 2 points plus a foul?
How do you foul someone who is 10 feet away from the three point line?

Two brain farts...

Nets really came through tonight. No one had a spectacular game but they held onto the lead throughout the night and held back Clevland during that late game run.

Nets survive!!! Kidd didn't have jaw-dropping performance but he really set the tone of the game. He proves over and over that he is their most important player. There is no stat that shows that kind of impact Jason makes.

Kidd 20 pts 9 rebs 6 asts
Carter 12 pts 10 asts 6 rebs
Jefferson 15 pts 8 rebs
Moore 14 pts 6 rebs
Nachbar 13 pts

Our most important win of the season. Solid job by numerous players, the scoring was balanced and that's important. Obviously, we need to improve our 4th quarter play (6 points, 1-15?!), but we were able to pull out the win. Game 6 is going to be very, very interesting. LeBron injured his knee, but will probably play in Game 6.
