<u>Nets' Keys to Victory</u>

Contain Randolph- Last time Portland and the Nets played, Zach was getting anything he wanted. He made easy layups and even had a couple of open shots. Even when defense was played on him, he was able to make shots such as a fadeaway jumper. If he goes off again, then the Nets can expect an L again.

Enough Mistakes- Lately the Nets have been making mistakes. There had been situations where, there was an unneccessary turnover which really killed us. We can't have that kind of stuff. We need to the little things such as, rebound, hustle and etc.

The preview is a little rushed because I have many projects to do, and I don't want to spend my 4 days of resting on them.

I missed almost all of the 1st quarter. I thought they would start at 10:30.

I checked that stats and Kidd has 7 asts already.

 

[NJNetz]

The Nets are playing great. Everybody is contributing on offense and defense. At one point it looked like we would give away another lead, but the Nets rebounded and went on a run. We need to keep this up in the 2nd half and throughout all games.

 

[NJNetz]

Here we go again. Nets down by 2.

There's only so many times you can make the same <u>mistake</u>.

 

[NJNetz]

We lose again. I can write the positive things we did today, but we lost so it doesn't matter anyway. Like before we had the game in the bag but we fell apart in the 4th. We get a big lead but we just end up giving it up. In conclusion, WE SUCK!

Kidd 8 pts 6 rebs 14 asts
Carter 35 pts 3 rebs
Jefferson 16 pts 5 rebs
Krstic 18 pts 6 rebs
Wright 9 pts

Losing to teams like Seattle and Portland will make us look bad, real bad. Right now we do not look like title contenders, not even a playoff team.

It's really frustrating... I'm lost for words...
