I am sure this has occurred to others but we probably gain more if we lose this game and let Philly add to their lead over Brooklyn.  I am not suggesting the Celtics would think that way, just saying it would be a good game to rest someone if there was someone that needed rest.

Brooklyn is undoubtedly the worst team in the league now, and with Simmons coming back soon, I'm pretty confident that the Sixers will further separate themselves from us. Right now the team that I'm worrying about the most is the Miami Heat, they are clearly tanking and I wouldn't be surprised if they trade Dragic relatively soon. But as of right now we have a lot of separation from other teams.
Dude you are taking this 'Nets Pick Watch' to a whole new level !!! ;)

As always will be interesting to see how they balance minutes between Okafor and Noel. If okafor plays a lot we will blwo them out.

Welp, looks like Big Al has mistakenly dressed for an away game again.  Not sure he has recovered from that concussion.

Yeah.  Philly is undefeated in games Noel and Embiid share the court together (2-0)... that streak should come to a halt tonight.

I don't mean to jinx it, but with Embiid and Rodriguez out, and us playing at home at full strength, this should be an easy game.


A loss would not be worst thing that EVER happened ..... :angel:.......we d just give the Sixers some extra distance on the Nets ....... :D

I'm using this game to scout Noel.

Prepare to be disappointed. Pay close to attention to his inability to rebound in traffic, poor post D, rock hands, lack of any offensive move, and no perimeter game at all.

You wanna be really depressed? KO has the highest defensive rebounding % on the team this year.

That's how bad at rebounding we are
I'm bitter.
