Even though the Raptors are almost certainly going to win this, I'm still pretty upset about this game.  I don't want the Nets emboldened at all.  They now think they can kind of hang with elite teams still, even after their personnel losses.  I suppose I'll take it, but I'm not happy.

Hey now! The basketball gods gave us this one, let's not ask too much now...

Except maybe for the #1 pick, Ben Simmons and 10 more banners ;D

And now they are slacking again!  Keep Lopez in check you jerks

Edit: Man Lopez is such a beast.  What is his bench?  He is pushing Biyombo around like he's a little boy

Its gets tough to read this thread at times during Nets games when people get doomsday crazy over the fact that the Nets get early leads in games. I can't tell you how many times I have read posts proclaiming a Nets win because they are up 8 points or more in the middle of a game and then the Nets go on to lose that game.

The Net are going to land wherever the Nets are going to land. Most likely between the third and 5th worse record. Its really not doomsday if they fall from 4th to 5th. I mean, look at it this way, the odds of a top 2 pick are firmly stacked against the Celtics getting a top 2 pick whether the Nets finish third, fourth or fifth worse in the league.

This Nets team is a horrid team any way you look at it. They are more than likely going to end up with 23 wins or less. they are going to have a lead in many more games only to blow that lead before the game ends. You people need to keep calm and realize that. Its better for your mental health

In fairness, we're trying to make Nets games interesting

Could OP stick odds of winning top 3 (and maybe top 1) for each lottery slot?

Like maths striptease.

4th pick = 37.8% (top 3), 11.9% (top pick)

Certainly, friend.

Nets lose despite Lopez's 35 points and 7 blocks.

Would be interesting to see how many games Lopez single handily won for them this season.

Lopez is such a beast my goodness. I can't figure out why teams don't throw a double at him every single time. If he gets one on one coverage he's going to score.

Lakers looking scary good with their Big 3 of Randle, Clarkson, and Russell. Combined for 74 points and routed the Orlando Magic!
