Felt we played better than the score indicates, should be up more than 2.

Nets also seem to play at a higher intensity when they face us.


Our offense, overall, looks much better in this game than recently. All 5 guys are looking for their shots and being aggressive putting more pressure on defense.

As side from Melo and KP everyone should be taken put of their miseries. Funny how so many a holes on this board thought we should trade Melo for draft picks and more of the same rejects from.other teams. Would just love seeing a whole bunch of Grants, Dwills, and D league rejects out there. And I'm sure KP would get a shot surrounded by that kind of trash. Have any of the guys Phil brought in to help Melo scored a basket?


Uh, RoLo is 4-6, Afflalo is 3-5 and Jose is 2-6 - all guys Phil brought in. Offensively Melo has enough to work with if they move the ball and run a good system like we've seen with Rambis so far. However it's the defense and the bench that are of bigger concerns to winning around Melo in the immediate term.

Who else thinks that Bill Pidto at this point could run a better point than Jose for 150?

I'm fine with Jose tonight - though the Nets have zero at PG to punish him.

The problem is the sloppiness of the bench.

Also Melo played over 21min in the first half alone. That doesn't seem like a recipe for keeping him healthy.

Maybe it was the back to back tomorrow, but still. I thought he was talking about wanting a 9 man rotation and he's at ELEVEN today. Really don't like how deep we go into the bench.

Strange . . . isn't it (?)

That was a nice drive.

It seems like Jerian's aggressiveness is back where he is attacking and not playing tentative. That's how he needs to play. Rambo has gotten in his head.

If Rambis can fix Grant, I'm good. I like what I'm seeing from Grant tonight, it's progress

I think all season one of the reason we've played 11 guys is that KOQ and Seraphin have both been so awful that neither of them can grab the backup job. We tend to play both of them for short stretches each game. It's painful.

Let Fredette play 1 on 5 for 10 minutes . . . forget about making any stops . . . and see how much worse that is than what we get now.

I am convinced that KP was really hampered by that sinus infection.

If Rambo has any common sense, he would sub Jose out right now and stop the bleeding.

Brilliant. Those three are definately the key to a championship. As for your stats, And your right the bench....Dwill, KO, Seraphin, Vuc, Grant..no one Phil brought over that everyone had a hard on for at the beginning of the year.
