brooklyn vs. toronto (bkn as our 2nd team to root)

[ImShakHeIsShaq]

KG hits his first bucket and has gotten the last few rebounds and PP his a 3 for his first... they know how to close.

[nicknorman]

Pierce and KG coming up big in 4th for Nets.  I miss those 2 so much.

[Donoghus]

I think we're all familiar with that Paul Pierce.

[Roy H.]

The Captain has been awesome down the stretch. Vintage.

[Donoghus]

My god, Pierce. Wow!

[ImShakHeIsShaq]

LOL this man.

[nicknorman]

Pierce going insane in 4th.  9 points in 4th.

[BleedGreen1989]

Ahhh The Truth!

I miss these times in Boston.

...I'm sad now

Anybody see Toronto's GM yell "F-Brooklyn" to the crowd...he's going to enjoy that fine..lol. Oh, and it's not a good idea to give bulletin material to guys like Pierce and KG.

Haha...that was Masai Ujiri...the architect behind DEN's turn-around (and TOR's)....surprised to see this from him...I guess we've all had our moments, lol..

He'll come to regret this, though..monetarily and for his team.

The last basketball exec that said something to light KG's fire was that ATL Co-owner who called KG and the Celtics old, in 11-12 playoffs.

KG then promptly went and dissected ATL in BOS, closing out the series with 28, 14 and 6 blocks.

Didn't see that kind of game from KG today, but boy his presence was there...causing TOR all sorts of problems.

KG is one of maybe 4 players that I can recall that can affect a game defensively with minimal scoring - Rodman and Olajuwon (and of course Russell).

Great game by him, Deron, JJ and PP....I bet Masai won't run his trap anymore, lol.

Get game 2, BKN!

[MISSERY]

I am pulling for the Raptors to win this series.

I wanted to like Brooklyn this season but I just don't find them a likeable team to watch.

d-will needs to get his assist. and loosing terry? thorton needs to work harder

and this is why jason collins to the nets is a bad idea, i wouldn't mind seeing haddadi over collins, i think he can contribute much better than collins in terms of height

as pierce said they are veteran teams, the only good thing on the raptors is they got all the ball possessions via rebound, plumlee and kg would not solve the problem, even a weak defender and average re-bounder blatche

[MISSERY]

this is why nets are lucky to avoid the bulls, they can't even beat gortat nene gooded harington
challenging the heat, is ok if you got some average rebounders
the only problem is WHO CLOGGED THE MIDDLE, if you look at what hibberts does, nets team in 2nd round with heat who clogged the middle when a healthy d-wade and lebron and chalmers attacks the basket isolation or pick n' rolls,

yes kg can guard bosh, but with a good set of play even you put pierce or mirza or ak47 on lebron, there is always a way for them to score, cole d-wade chalmers can all attack inside,
yes bobcats got al jeff, but double team him, like they did the past years on ibaka,
if you got nowitzki at PF 7'0 and chandler at center 7'1, they have a chance

[j804]

TRUTH.

[GreenFaith1819]

Sigh.....I can't help but think about BOS's team THIS YEAR if KG and Paul would've stayed.....

We would've had a more experienced Sully...the length and savvy of KO...Jeff Green (who played well with KG and Paul).....

...But we also would've had Rondo not coming back until Jan/Feb....the probable injuries....

Oh well.

I just wish Paul and KG well in BKN and hope they kick TOR's(and MIA's) behinds.
