Man It really sucks that Jaylen got injured.  Even just a little bit more offense tonight might put us over the top.  When he is out the guys filling in have really got to play above their level, and that is hard to do in the playoffs.

Our guys are out there fighting, it is good to see no matter how the final score turns out.

Yeah to be honest, really proud of how we're playing tonight.

Good effort. Hope we take the dub!

Kemba has to play better

Yeah, he rested half the year. He should look better.

Starting to be a playoff trend

Bit harsh, the guy averaged 25ppg against Philly in the bubble last year. The Raptors were so worried about him they deployed a box and one to deny him the ball. I think the foul trouble has gotten him out of sync and out of rhythm

For all of the criticism on Smart’s game, he has outplayed Kemba tonight.
which is more of a criticism of Kemba's play than praise of Smart's play.   any game when that statement is true, we're going to struggle.

Kemba's got to show up if we're going to have any hope of winning this game or any games this series

Smart has kept us in the game tonight
he has, but if Kemba (and Tatum) were having an average shooting night, Smart wouldn't feel the need for heroics.

Kemba makes me feel really dumb for ever wanting to sign him. This just isn’t the same guy in Charlotte. Not even half as good. Sigh

Officials are giving the Nets every close call. Silver must really want Brooklyn to get this game.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Awful ATO play, though doubt that's what Brad drew up.

Lol these refs. No foul for Tatum on the other end but that's a foul on Fournier  ::)

Shooting just 37% against a team that isn't exactly strong defensively.
