The Official 2016-2017 Brooklyn Nets Season Watch Thread (20-62, #1)

[Neurotic Guy]

Awesome win by Lakers.

Forget everything I ever said about the Lakers tanking. I was only kidding!!!

Thank you, Magic, for letting them play today!!

Go Hawks!!!  Grab back that 5th seed from the Bucks!!!

Why do I take more joy in the Nets clinching last place than in the Celtics clinching first place.

Need to talk to a shrink, LOL...

Must suck for the Nets to know that every time they lose the Celtics win, and the Lakers it must suck for them that every time they win now, the Celtics win. HAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!

You can add to their discouragement that every time the C's win, the Nets lose.  As of now, the Nets are going to swap  their top 4 pick for the C's #27 (could get as low as 28).   Who would have thought at the time of the trade that the C's would be swapping #26-28 in 2017.  Amazing.

Over at the Lakers board they're all mad and fighting each other over the win

Just like the owners and front office were.  Jim and Mitch mostly wanted to trade and get better and play ball for the fans etc.   Jean Buss and Ervin want to tank the season .   

The non tankers point to Celtics , Bucks , Heat , Jazz ....play n ball ....no quit n.

The other group love Mr Hankie and the tankies

Great point, that was most probably not close to consideration at all. TP!

If Brooklyn looses today, we will have full control over having the top seed and best odds in the lottery.

[CelticSooner]

Figured the Lakers would win another game but against Memphis? lol

That's a wrap folks. 

[SHAQATTACK]

Atlanta sucks bad without Milsap ...hope he can make the diff

[SHAQATTACK]

I think Nets gonna win again.  Hawks play n no defense

[CelticsElite]

Nets are outperforming. They're full of dleaguers and undrafted free agents

[The One]

Lopez is a monstah!!!

[SHAQATTACK]

Lin / Lopez > Hawks 



So much for Howard being a monster on defense ...... worthless corpse

[SCeltic34]

Howard isn't giving even a sliver of effort out there.  Poor defensive stance and not even making an effort to contest a shot around the painted area.  Not setting good screens for his teammates.  It seems to be partially in response to him not being involved on offense.

I'm so glad he didn't end up with us.  He's the anti-KG.

If you want a good laugh, check out the infighting between Lakers fans about their win today

Hawks are crap but you dang well they'll play all world against the C's. 

[Ogaju]

Atlanta is garbage.

[footey]

If Nets don't trade Lopez in off-season, trading the 2018 Nets pick for the right player makes sense.  I think our days of high lottery value are running out after 2017.
