Quick Look at the Nets

-The Nets snapped a 6 game losing streak against the Celtics, 106-103, and are looking bad lately.
-Richard Jefferson is struggling lately for the Nets and he hopes to change his form tonight against a fellow young star, Andre Iguadala.
-X-Factor for the Nets: Stopping Allen Iverson, as always. He's the only reason the Sixers currently have any wins, with the other players struggling.

Quick Look at the Sixers

-The Sixers can tie the Nets' record by winning tonight.
-The Sixers open a tough December tonight, with the first of 9 games on the road for them this month
-X-Factor for the Sixers: Crash the boards. The Sixers aren't rebounding this season, and tonight is the perfect opportunity to turn things around on the boards. The Nets have no real rebounders and if the Sixers should be able to score a lot of 2nd chance points and up their chances of winning.

Prediction: Nets win by 6

Again, I'm sorry for the short preview. I'm going to have much more free time soon, so this is probably (hopefully) the last short preview you'll see from me in a while.

I can't wait to see Boone and House. Hopefully they will get some minutes.

I really like the play by Moore. He's getting offensive rebounds, and just playing with great hustle and energy.

 

[Smitty]

Carney's doing a good job so far filling in for Korver.

Not a bad first half so far.

 

[NJNetz]

Nets playing really well. They need to play like this all the time, against every team.


Goodbye Sig!

Great game by the Nets. They had a great overall performance, played great defense and brought their offense back. I really liked the energy that Mikki brought, and even though House was 1-8, he looks like a promising bench player.

As I write this, the Nets are screwing up in the last 20 seconds. Wtf?
I really didn't like how they fell apart in the closing seconds.


Kidd 9 pts 9 rebs 13 asts
