Wally is better than I ever expected and I think he's better than Kelly who I did enjoy.
It was either Wally or Hahn who made a very good point about the Nets last night. They are a team full of laid back, no fire in their bellies type of guys. Joe looks like he'd enjoy watching paint dry, Wallace seems like the kind of guy who thinks a fun day is riding around on his Jim Deer Tractor. Even Deron, the most aggressive of the bunch doesn't come across as a City Kidd.
I can't really see or believe in a team that doesn't have heart or at least one firebrand on the squad. Hell, I don't see anyone on that squad that would stand up to say, a punk ass Garnett or anyone else.
Forget the "hard foul" Humphries had on Garnett and Rondo tried to smack them?
Nets had fire that game and did not back down when Celts tried to bully them. They look lost in December.
I tend to more objective then many around here but I will admit the Nets looked dead last nite. "Crash" wallace usually has his hustle moments and its true Joe is pretty laid back. Deron is stoic either way and just does his thing. He is not expressive as Melo or chandler who both are very.
Nets suffer from what KNicks had under MDA which was bad 3rd quarters!
The Iso thing is never pretty in my book. Thier bench is filled with Shooting euros and Marshon Brooks who can light it up.
IM just enjoying what we are doing and not worrying about Nets for now. They are sinking and not really sure why.
