Welcome 8th Pick from Brooklyn

[Benedict_Boozer]

I hate how Brooklyn plays. Such a gimmick style, half their 46 shots are three pointers. They are on pace to shoot damn near 50 3 pointers.

It basically keeps them in every game just by sheer math.

They are heavy on analytics...And they know each of their players hot spots on the floor it seems.

Is Okafor out of the rotation? If so, this is a horrible day for the pick.

That's going to hurt.

 

[Pierre Pan]

Magic extending their lead nicely ; up 11 after 3

 

[Pierre Pan]

Ugh...Knicks up 2

 

[Futuredome]

Magic with a tank job tonight

Final - Hornets 111 Nets 96

 

[Real Deal]

Magic lost to the Knicks. Wtf.

 

[MirORich]

Final - Hornets 111 Nets 96

Starting off the final run strong.

And while I am a little pissed at Orlando for blowing that, at the same time, we can not have a team like the Knicks or Bulls catch the Nets in the standings either so this Knicks win, especially the way they’d been trending, is actually fine.

What we really need is some hate and jealousy to take over in Brooklyn. We need D-Lo to piss off Dinwiddie, Crabbe and LeVert. We need Okafor to play and do his (tank) thing. Encouraged by the Nets great game tonight and it sets up an epic matchup on Monday night with the Bulls. Another must lose game as the separation between the Nets and Bulls needs to grow. As much as we want to climb downwards in the standings, we can not afford vacate that 7th spot to 8 or 9

So Knicks winning is good? I don't think they had a chance of catching up or am I wrong?

Orlando winning isn't better?

Next 5 games for Brooklyn:

Feb 26 vs Bulls
Feb 27 at Cavs
March 1 at Kings
March 4 at Clippers
March 6 at GSW

Hopefully they go no better than 1-4.

I cannot imagine what this thread will be like if the Nets beat the Cavs - it'll be like an H-bomb dropped inside Mount Vesuvius during an 8.9 earthquake.

Orlando would have been better, but the Knicks have been in such a tail-spin, I'm not devastated that they got another win in the bank. Just a couple more and itll be really really really hard for them to catch the Nets. Hopefully against better teams.

 

[UDcleveland]

Bulls right with Philly, but will undoubtedly fall off a cliff in the 4th here.

 

[TyGuy]

The bad news is Okafor is now out of the rotation it appears. They finally realized he is a terrible nba player.

 

[Futuredome]

Bulls will cut portis post game
