God bless Steve Nash for putting Blake in the game. What a hilariously stupid move.

Great counterpunch by us! Big momentum swing there

I was about to say the same thing.  I don't understand the thinking behind it.

I'm not sure what Griffin was complaining about. He's lucky that wasn't called a foul, because that was clearly a clear path foul if they did call it.

Yeah, you can tell he has been mothballed. He had no idea the refs bailed him out there

Here comes the 4th quarter. Still a close game. Get ready your blood pressures!

That was way too good of a shot to give up to end the quarter. Glad Brown missed.

Super-happy we bounced back after another points purge to end a quarter. We certainly have to play hard to win this one, but at least it's not tied.

We are up 9 going into the 4th.  I know it doesn't feel like that but you can't ask for much more on the road against this team.  We still have some work to do.  We have not seen much from Horford yet, maybe he will be the x-factor.

Good finish at the end of the quarter. Now start strong and put them away

Amen! Let’s do this!

JB ballhandling is scary bad.

But he insists on continuing to dribble thru the defense. I thought we had finally fixed that.

Not near enough ball movement this game.

Yes! We come out so strong after the TO. And by the way, strong after half too..What does our coach say to them?! He must be the Lombardi of Basketball! He really gets them focused and fired up.

I don't understand why he would do that.  The Nets were actually on a run.  Putting Blake in the game strikes me as a "we're getting caned, throw some s*** at the wall and maybe something will stick" kind of move. 

Instead you send in a guy who hasn't played all series to kill your own momentum.  Bewildering.
