Instant Post game quick thoughts:
. KP is hitting his stride and a lot of it is the PG's knowing how to find him.

. The team started off awkward as hell but settled in and played good ball and then really good ball even when the shots weren't falling in the third, they were getting great looks.

. Melo got a mismatch and poured it on, took the game back from down 9 and took the Nets soul with him.

. Second half defense was impressive, offense was pretty, but I don't want to get too high off a win against this wack opponent.

. Kuz and Willy are fun to watch out there and I think they're making a case for the rotation. Too much stagnation from the current second unit even if they play better defense. Kuz and Willy move, pass and can score; plus they have shown some defensive growth especially Willy...he had a good game on both ends.

.Lance got benched; KOQ got benched; and I doubt anyone is mad about those decisions. Holiday, I like his game but he was pretty invisible.

. Courtney Lee is lookin' like he fits this crew like a glove. He can score in motion, catch and shoot and plays enthusiastic defense.

. Cool moment of the game; Kuz hit Booker with a step back three pointer by faking a drive and Melo said something to him on the way down that left dude smiling. Dad Melo out there.

. BJ was AWFUL in the first half. Dribbled off his foot, got down on himself and committed more TO's while looking upset. Second half, he kept at it passing though and he was brilliant as a playmaker. Props!

. Lastly, shout out to Hornacek's coaching decisions. He benched the right guys and I'm wondering if he threw in the fresh legs because he knew the Nets would tire out on night two. Either way, the decision paid dividends and there was even better motion on defense despite a slow start on that end.

Just couldn't handle the pressure in the 2nd half, we don't have a PG so its not surprising. Just had no idea what to do on offense, when Scola is out there tryin to put moves on people :scust:

GG brehs, next time ain't till February so who knows what we'll look like. But we should have Lin for some potential fukkery with Melo
Y'all got some pieces brotha man looking forward to the next bout

I made a observation, when they showed him on the bench. Relax, pimpin'

You wouldn't have called him a bum ass if you were just making a simple observation. Just wanted to go out of your way to take an unnecessary shot at Lin :umad:
