http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tw9w5W7sas

Felt like a playoff game, lol!

64-18—we cannot be stopped. Great game for Brook and Lee. Glad to see Dooling out there, however rusty. Not a good shooting game from Devin, but he is showing signs. I’m just relieved. 0-18? We’re better than that!

thats it baby, feed lopez!!!

Go Leethal weapon!!!

Frank’s gone, the injured players are back and the schedule gets a bit easier. The first 18 games weren’t the real Nets.

Now let’s get ready to beat the knicks GO NETS!!!!!!!!

Crowd was pretty into it!

Kiki Vandeweghe + Del Harris rule.

yes yess… NETS WIN!!! I am so happy right now.

omG we won!!!! we won!!!!

outstanding game by Lee and Lopez, it felted like a playoff game.

more like game 7 of the finals.

breathstealing game

yey nets!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let’s Gooooo!!!! Finally I can comment on this site, I see 2 straight comin

Positives
Josh Boone busted his you know what out there
Courtney Lee played like we were expecting him to play when we traded for him.
Brook Lopez was awesome as always.

Negatives
Twill- He needs to learn he cannot just keep throwing up shots, he costed us some points down the line with his selfish shooting.
Lack of players played- We had more then what we played available why not play them?

Atleast I know Tony Battie can play D, I was liking him out there.

1-0 baby!

This is the Future.

Finally I see Courtney Lee is the real deal ~

Finally a Win! Bobcats did a good job.

Lopez, Lee, Yi, and Brook, I believe in these guys. Devin, not so much. Great win!

Lopez, Lee, Yi, and CDR, I believe in these guys. Devin, not so much. Great win!

I’M KOOKOO FOR KIKI!!

NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!NETS WIN!!

Great Game!!! Finally! I like how we’re not the only one celebrating, but the rest of the league too. Fans from different teams are celebrating our victory.

Great game by Lee and Brook. T-Will had a horrible night. Devin didn’t shoot well, but made some big plays.

Hope we can continue to play with the energy that we have shown tonight.

I was so happy i almost cried. the relief was euphoric!!!

great games by lee, lopez, dooling, and cdr.

twill needs to smarten up.

oh boone played his role excellent today also!!

wow!

we won! its amazing!

To get the first win the first domino is Frank. Kiki have some lady luck on his side. Don’t know about Frank? Harris suck but if somebody can bring some luck there is a chance to win.

Welcome to post-Frank era where we can actually win winnable games.

i am shocked

In the future it will be Brook, Lee, Twill vs The Thunder in the NBA finals. Two young teams that will eventually be running the league.
Brook All Star..expect when playing Dwight

GO NETS!!! WINNING FEELS GREAT!!

Congratulation Nets and Nets fans! No small ball in the final six minutes made a difference. Also, I think Dooling helped keep the focused in the 4th.

Finally, No 3rd Quarter collapse and double digit deficit!
Finally, Some Decent rotations.
Finally, A sense of an OFFENSE.
Finally, A WIN!!!!!

Kiki absolutely played a big part in this win. Having Boone in there at the end helped a lot. He was making Charlotte change their shots and he helped us get a second possession on offense a couple of times. Kiki and Del Harris gives us the understanding of what it takes to win games. I feel fortunate that we were able to get Harris, I’m sure we offerred him little salary wise and coming to an 0-18 team is not something a lot of established guys like him would have done. The fact that he has a history with Yi is gravy.

Could you imagine if Frank never got fired? lol

Breakout game for Courtney?

It doesn’t matter how you begin it – it’s how you end it that matters…. 64-18…. YYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!

We won baby we won!!
Let’s beat the knicks on sunday!!

BREAKOUT GAME FOR BROOK AS WELL!

YESSSSSSSSSSS, NETS WIN! What a weight lifted! That was the hustle you have to play with every night.

If Kiki can get Harris to stop jacking threes I will send him a delicious fruit cake for the holidays.

Please rise for our NEW JERSEY NETS!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE CROWD WAS REALLY INTO IT

No final 5 minutes Small Ball ! Cheers !!!

Opening beer. Mmmm tastes good! Finally.

@ jabez and ND – Do you really think we’re going to go 64-18? I say 33-49 maybe 40-42.

Why did we win? For the first time in I don’t know how long we went the last 4:35 BIG. Boone played over 33 minutes. Hassel never left the bench. Nice to see Battie in but you can forget about Swat cuz Kiki is president of the Yi fan club. If Battie takes Simmons minutes at the PF we should be at out best. Maybe 20 wins. Sure we beat a bad team, got out rebounded and shot 39% it doesn’t matter. It’s about playing D. Tonight Lee shot well but others didn’t. It doesn’t matter. Defense is a constant. As long as you play your best defensive bigs usually someone will emerge as a hot shooter. It was great to win the right way. Good job Kiki.

I am glad that the Nets finally won a game. Maybe Kiki will end up having a good start like Frank did when he first took over as coach. I am seeing them taking on the Knicks on Sunday over at MSG, so I hope it continues there. If Kiki is really good, he could probably break Frank’s record for the best start as a head coach durring the season.

We were right about Keyon in his first game back.

Dooling was talking all the time, moving the rest of the guys into position and passing around – never thinking about himself. That is just what the Nets needed. Imagine if Keyon was also back in shooting form – he barely missed a couple of difficult lay-ins.

Finally the Nets have a TRUE PG on the team.

PS Waiting to hear some apologies from the CLee detractors.

Great TEAM win!!!

If frank was still here we would have lost

@ jerry25 – Me too!

@Jerry I will you an apologie, but this is one game. Hopefully Clee can do this for the season.
We got to beat the Knicks now coming off their big win against Atlanta!

@ 1milord – Agreed!

N E T S NETS NETS NETS!!!
Great game!
Lee finally showed up
Brook played great
DH didnt smile in post game interviews! thanks!
KiKi is definetly a better influence on this team
LFrank didnt play ball
he doesnt have that competitive edge to dribble past your guy and score on him, fight for a rebound, and block some guys shot.
KiKi may have found his real calling
TWill needs to go 2 the basket and dunk on someone.
Yi is the key! Having all the starters will be interesting!
beat the KNICKS
18-0!!

KIKI for coach of the year!!!!!!!!!

Good win (RIP Eddi Fatu-umaga)

Twill can start twittering again

Winner… Winner… Chicken Dinner

Regardless of our record, Brook Lopez will be the reason a big time free agent will come to NJ (Brooklyn). He’s only going to get better.

ha happy at 1-18? Wow.

I could just see Kiki telling Del during the game – “I’m not going to let SWat screw up this game.”

Simmons happened to win honors with his +14 differential!?

I wonder how the ESPN Nets-haters will rate BLopez this week? 31 pts, 14 boards?

The players finally had 4 consecutive decent quarters of trying hard.

Had DH also been shooting like last year, it would have been a blow-out.

Super thrilled.
I have One negative comment:
MArv and the Czar are the ones that should have been shown the door a long time ago.
Brutally Painful.
It’s like listening to an old age home or a community theater version of grumpy old men.
Just awful.

I know it’s just one win but shame on those Nets fans for doubting the firing of Frank. Frank should have been out of here last year. He’s a substandard head coach but i’m sure a hell of an asistant. But i’m sure Nets won’t win more then 20-25 games. But it doesn’t matter. The won tonight!

Go Kiki. Go Nets!

Dooling’s back. Trade Rafer Alston now.

First team to take Najera gets Rafer!

@ Chris2 – Nobody will take Najera with that contract. Rafer Alston may have to go all by himself.

BTW, forgot to say congrats to Kiki and Del. Nice rotation, lots of basketball sense. Nice adjustment when Bobcats regain the lead (I believe back to 8 pts).
   Although CDR offense is flawed, I notice how he guarded Diaw effectively.
    Inserting Dooling for Harris to cool off Felton and reinserting Harris when Brown made some adjustment showed a lot of good basketball sense. I don’t know about Frank???

win the next 10 games ! LOL

great win!!

NETS WIN! NETS WIN! NETS WIN!

1-18 has never felt so good.

Yes, Lee had a good game, but still:

Ryan Anderson + JJ Reddick > Courtney Lee.

Thorn shoulda kept quiet. That’s why everyone hates Lee, not that it is his fault really.

NBA

were 10-72 happends

I love it how some of the fans hate on Lee and Yi because of the guys we traded to get them. Like its their fault we let go of fan favorites. Seems infantile to me.

i have a good feeling were not gonna beat knicks on sunday. knicks have 2 much offense

believe when i say we are going for:

3-79

5-77

10-72 (im sold to this)

15-67 (unlikely but reachable)

but no more!!! book it

NBA were 1 lucky shoot happends!!!

:D :D :D

whos next??? oh yeah! NY, if we cant get 100 points then say good bye 1-0

oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

I’m not a huge Devin harris Fan but C’Mon you guys…He played hard and with passion tonight..He had alot of asists,made foul shots at the end and glued the team together tonight …He showed some leadership..He also hustled…..The players were free to play basketball tonight …They only had like four plays and Kiki took the pressure off of them….He did a very nice job with this young team tonight..They made a U-Turn…..I know it’s only one game but this is the direction that they should have been heading in three or more years ago….Nice to See…

cdr’s post game interview was just too funny…he is quite the personality.

JJ Redick is a nothing player. He is a specialist who happens to be playing on a team where he can shoot a lot of wide open 3’s. Time will tell who turns out better, Ryan or Lee. To me Lee is a prime time player, he can excel on offense and defense. Ryan is a unique talent whose offensive game appears to be growing by leaps and bounds but he will likely always struggle on defense. He can hide a bit playing besides Dwight against the Udonis Haslems of the world but can he stay on the court against Pau Gasol, Tim Duncan, or KG?

NBATV was showing the end of the game until last 30 secs.

You were right about Marv Albert. It was as though they were announcing for TNT fans. I thought he was only doing 25 games this year? If true, this may be one of his last games.

Bye Bye Marv.

Great game. Glad I was there to see it. Lee and Lopez played their hearts out.

Great Job Lee and Lopez and Harris and …the entire team ,moins Twill.

But how did Wallace grab 20 boards??

WOW….I forgot what it was like to have a real coach…..

I know ….20 Boards…For a minute I thought it was Ben wallace….

I think he leads the league in rebounding at one point or another.

I’m starting to wonder about TWill. Not the sharpest tool in the shed. Reminds me of Nate Robinson. They’re friends right?

Just about every time I looked over at the bench. I saw Del talking to players than Kiki, did anyone see the same thing I did?

TWILL showed alot of promise at first but that other guy that was coaching this team totally stripped him of his confidence and confused him…I can see him getting back to normal in a few games…Alot less pressure on him and alot more fun…

Tonight , Courtney Lee played alot like KiKi used to play…KiKi was a pretty darn good player in his day….

Nice…team is finally getting healthy. Kiki seems to have psychologically given this team a boost. Nets did a good job by signing Del Harris to help Kiki out. Things are finally starting to look up. It’s just one game though…but a big win nonetheless

Finally they got one…hallelujah

:)

WOOWWWW NETS WIN!!! just got home from the game haaa! yes its after 1230 but im home!trafic was crazy getting out cuas no1 was driving evry1 was just honking and going nuts! so glad i went tonight i called the win before the game i just had a good feeling. it did feel like a playoff game especilly towards the end and then after it was over. i never thought it would feel so good to win a game . so relieved. now we can start the season and maybe get a couple more good wins and try and finsh final three quarters of season strong! GREAT JOB NETS, KIKI AND FANS!

one more thing
tonight devin was the closest thing to having our own derek jeter as you will ever see, he was amazing, didnt shoot great but no way we win that game without dev!

a devin and a heaven sent win

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! how you like LEE now haha..great win!

you might want to check back to my post on Kiki Day One. I predicted the score would be: Nets 97 Bobcats 91. Not bad huh?

“A good number of people in the organization have spoken with Chris Douglas-Roberts the past few days since his Show-Them-Detroit soliloquy Wednesday night, and if Frank were around, he’d probably make it a point to sit CDR down for some happy talk.”

what is Dave D talking about here?

Kiki’s coaching this team to 13 straight. Book it.

im so stupid…im from central europe and i didnt want to wake up to watch this game :(
no matter NETS WON!!!

GG nets. Glad to see some promise in CLee and of course Lopez. I’m not sure how much Kiki and Del had to do with the win but it looks like the players put in some good effort. Loved to see harris dive into the seats, those type of effort plays are contagious- stuff leaders need to do.

To all who say Marv Albert is annoying: sooo true. Spanarkel rocks, so did Tripuka. Ian Eagle is even better than Albert. Albert is annoying and probably costs too much. Maybe even the Capper should get in there.

You can credit Kiki and Del for using Courtney right. They ran him off of screens all night long and if you want him to contribute that is how you do it. Too much iso and pick and roll stuff with Frank.

where can i see the cdr interview?? what did he say??

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all devin has to do is get to the line as often as possible, play defense and avoid turnovers. and like that he can easily score 15+ ppg.

Im starting to see some chemistry in this team after yesterdays win. It looks like the guys really like eachother…as weird as that sounds its needed in a team.

so happy dooling is back…lets get YI back now!!
oh and trade for a dejuan blair type player…

Finally…Thank God! But let’s not get too crazy…KIKI’s hair WILL be gray sooner than later. It is going to be a long time between wins this year, we are playing Josh Boone at Power Forward, not a good situation AND we don’t shoot well as a team. But it was nice to see LEE get his legs under him while shooting last night, I think HE is a player. Devin’s shot selection last night was NOT good. Let’s beat NY on Sunday. GO NETS!

and YES…is there anyone who doesn’t know that MARV wears an UGLY WIG?

Nobody here miss Frank? I can’t wait till we play the Knicks and get our second win.

Take away Lawrence Frank and Rafer Alston.

Add Kiki, Del Harris and Keyon Dooling.

Nets Win, Nets Win, Nets win!!!!!

I just liked the agressive attitude. Josh with a hard foul, Devin going into the stands. And, most of all, they played decent defense. Yay!!! The monkey is off their back! Go Nets!

Who’s Frank? O yea! The guy who coached this team to underachievement for the past 3 years. I remember that guy.

I love the interior defense by Boone and Lopez especially on the fourth quarter with the hard foul on Felton by Boone. That’s how you make name in the league.

Be sure to watch the NBATV Arena link interview of CLee.
General Lee said that Coach Kiki spaced out the offense better for more penetration.

Clearly, right now the players are happy with Kiki.
Yi clearly will be happy with Coaches Harris and Kiki.

Seems like deja vu all over again with a coach being fired and the players putting out for the new coach.

Can someone please tell me what michelle beaddle was saying on her awful show on ESPN yesterday? Know your roots.

and another thing, the clowns on the Jersey Shore show are from LI, staten island, the bronx, rhode island, etc….Change the name of the show..

All night long i loved hearing…thats another 3 for courtney LEE!

Like everyone else, we were so happy to remove the albatross from around our necks. Just some food for thought. How many Frank haters were constantly begging him to play Swat more and never let Simmons get up off the bench? For anyone who does not know: Last night, Swat, 0 minutes, Simmons, 17 minutes. Battie helps just so Brook doesn’t have to play over 40 minutes a game (and thus has some gas left in the tank at the end of games), and you can’t underestimate the value of Dooling to this team. I’m not defending Frank and agree that he had to be fired, but on balance I thought he was a very decent coach, and is one incredibly classy and decent guy. But circumstances will give Kiki better opportunities to win games from this point on assuming we stay healthy. And if you haven’t listened to his interview with LFrank that Netincome posted and linked yesterday, it’s a must to hear. WFAN had him on for an hour! It’s great.

Plain and simple:
CONGRATULATIONS TEAM!
Cannot wait for J.HAYES to get back at the starting 3 spot. Now we can have even a better rotation with our guards.
D.HARRIS/C.D-ROBERTS
K.DOOLING/C.LEE
What team has two sets of starting guards on their team like the NETS?
Everybody root for J.Hayes to a speedy recovery.
Although the tear is serious and takes time.
Support him until then.
GO BROOKLYN NETS! GO BROOKLYN NETS! GO BROOKLYN NETS!

@ aymesq

The fact that Swat played zero min and Simmons played 17 had has much to do with the win as how much popcorn they sold. The fact that you thought Frank was “a very decent coach” after watching Boone play 33 min including the last 4:35, Hassel play zero and we won, leads me to believe you must be a friend or relative of Opie. Tell him I hope to see him on TV soon.

Frank was a very good coach. For one thing, I like Tennessee, for another, even if Frank didn’t, there was no one else to play.

We don’t need some dumb jock to be coach.

Did these particular players tune Frank out? Maybe.

Does it say something that experienced players who have been around the leage a while listened to Frank in past years, while some tenderfooted possibly overly egotistical youngsters did not, say more about the guys on the court than the coach? Maybe.

Harris became and All Star because of Lawrence Frank. Will somebody please remember that?

This is for everybody that has come to any conclusion based on last nights game. IT’S 1 GAME!!!

It was huge for us to get a win but Kiki is going to have some bad games and some players will play more than others on any given night. If we come out and get beat by a Knick team that is playing a lot better tomorrow, we’ll see a 180 and the complaining will begin and this win will be forgotten. The other 2 teams that lost 17 in a row to start the season lost the next 4 or 5 after their first win. We already knew that Kiki set himself up pretty nice not having to coach the Mavs game (I still can’t figure that one out). How about we wait a few games before concluding anything..

@Mr. Big “leads me to believe you must be a friend or relative of Opie.”

Never met the man. Ask JKidd or VC if they think that LFrank was “a very decent coach”. Or ask Rod Thorn. Or pretty much anyone else in the NBA. Oh wait, you obviously know much more than they do.

What a great game! This season really makes you appreciate the little things in life. I had so much fun watching this game last night.

I wish Devin Harris knew how good he could be as a defender and a distributor. He’s really fallen in love with the idea of those dagger 3 pointers. He just can’t seem to make them.

T-Will should stop taking jump shots. Period. He knows what his strong points are.

Well they finally won one. And it was clear that changing coaches gave the players an emotional lift.

C Lee looked great as did Lopez. I thought Harris played a horrendous game on both ends.

Its clear that Simmons, Hassell, S. Williams and Alston are not going to see a lot of playing time. Why Kiki chose to put Simmons in there – I’ll never know. He did nothing again.

Lets see what Kiki can do with his pet project Yi if and when he ever comes back.

@Ispartan

“No small ball in the final six minutes made a difference. Also, I think Dooling helped keep the focused in the 4th.”

Amen!

@Chris2
“Kiki absolutely played a big part in this win. Having Boone in there at the end helped a lot. He was making Charlotte change their shots and he helped us get a second possession on offense a couple of times.”

Amen!

At the game last night (thaks Strauss Auto for .75 floor tickets) and the crowd was excellent. Haven’t been in a Nets crowd like that in sometime.

In timeouts, you could tell Del Harris was leading the discussion. Looks like he’ll be doing strategy for some time while Kiki works on training players and improving skills.

This is still a 22-28 win team, but there are some nice pieces to be optimistic about in Lopez, CDR, Harris and Lee. TWill was really off last night but I still believe he’ll be fine in the end.

Please , I ask…Everyone who loved our previous coach so much , please follow him to his next position and/or team and stop praising him here for destroying this team….Please…….

@Anthony

you are right, those are NEW YAWKAS NOT New Jerseyians! They always misrepresent New Jersey people. That is why everyone that is not from New Jersey have a jaded picture and stereotype people that live in New Jersey. As if we are all like those depicted in that show and in other shows that have been on before. Most of the people I know (which streches from all parts of New Jersey) are not like that at all. I also was born and raised in northern New Jersey and I am not even close to being like that. I would love to do my own show with the people I know. People from other states would never guess that we are from New Jersey because of the stereotypes given to the people in this state.

I think Kiki is a rather calming force to these players. He even called taking over coaching duties, “a fun challenge”.

@ aymesq

Ask Kidd, VC or Thorn who were the worst coaches they ever saw. What do you think their answer would be? My guess would be what VC said when asked about Frank’s firing basically “no comment”. Most people never have anything bad to say unless there are no repercussions and they feel strongly about the person. What do you think Kiki, Harris or Yi’s agent, Fagan think about Fran? Very rarely will you get the truth. Everyone could have an opinion but decisions like whether he was a good coach or not are what seperates winners from losers. Frank would be a good coach if his big men were obviously his best otherwise, he’d mess it up. He never will be a good college coach cuz his worst attribute is his inability to recognize talent so he wouldn’t be able to recruit.

GREAT WIN!!!!!

Vastly different feel as a team!

Solid coaching!

Dooling back made a big difference.

Notice how few turnovers we had? Only 7!!!!!!!

@ Mr. Big " What do you think their answer would be? "

All together now: Isiah Thomas

Actually, it’s Ray Handley, but that’s another sport.

I have a question…what happen if the Nets win the next several games and then lose the game Yi plays again…will it be Yi’s fault???

To bobby simmons’ credit he had the highest +/- of any player in the game

Yeah, the team felt different …it WAS different. Kiki had the benefit of 11 players vs 8 players….He had Harris and Lee in something approaching NBA playing condition….He could encourage aggressive play on defense because there were actually back-ups available should someone foul out…including (for the first time) Tony Battie….He had the benefit of Keyon Dooling’s defense and leadsership on the court…For most of the season, LF had only one of the five projected starters available…Do you suppose Kiki would have won any games under those conditions? Doubt it…When Yi and Jarvis Hayes come back, there will be even more of a difference and it won’t have to do with Kiki….That said, let’s hope the players feel they are at a new beginning and finally have the opportunity to gel, having not had the opportunity to do so even in pre-season due to injuries.

@ muwu – That means nothing because of how little time Bobby Simmons saw out on the floor last night.

@ MH

You are a smart guy.

Maybe not L Frank smart, but very smart.

@ Paul B and MH – Agree 100%!

@ MoMo – Re: Your post from Monday about our recent draft choices :

The Pacers messed up even worse than we did in 2004 because they passed on Anderson Varejao, who helped lead the Cavs to the best record in the league last season, in favor of David Harrison, who is considered most famous for his role in the events on November 19, 2004.

I meant to write: in the events of November 19, 2004.

@ Muwu:

Yea, it was clear last night that Bobby Simmons was giving 0 effort under Frank. That’s not an indictment on Frank. More obvious that Bobby Simmons didn’t give a dungbeetle about playing for Frank. I wonder if Kiki or someone had a chat w/ him that me him care all of a sudden.

responding about 100 comments too late, but Marv and the Czar are sometimes the most enjoyable parts of watching Nets games, especially this season

@ Matt N,
Their act is funny once. They’re terrible. If I wanted that kind of crapola from my announcers, I’d do it the right way and I’d listen to reruns of
Dante & Galante from Orlando Summer League

I wish the Birdman; Ian Eagle was there to call the first win of the Nets season.

We need to petition to get back Bill Raftery and have him and Ian Eagle call most Nets games!

That combo was the best in sports!!!

the Nets are not a mere 6 1/2 games from the 8th seed.

Imagine that!

Good bye small ball!! Simmons played 17 mins only because Boris Diaw at the 4 calls for small ball a bit but other than that I can see small ball is definitely part of the plan here!!

I am so hyped to see Yi come back!!! Lopez and Yi will excel in this offense! They fact that they both have size and can shoot will complement each other big time!!

4 game winning streak coming anyone??!!!

@Panareal
   
    Of course not, Yi should not be blamed. It’s Frank’s fault too, everything, the reason why Maritn was traded, Byron Scott kicked out, Alonzo suddendly didn’t want to play, Kristic getting injured and traded, Boone FT’s, all the injuries because Frank makes the game complicated , doesn’t get a lot of respect in the league specially the referees….. No question about his good game plans but the only problem the opposing coaches knows how to adjust and exploit weaknesses which he could not hide. If they win , then Kiki and Del’s knows better, see the last game much better lineup because of Boone used as PF to make defense more solid. If Yi is used as starter in place of Boone then let’s see if Kiki make our offense better so opposing team counter with a defensive PF which will make Yi good on defense. Am I being unfair??. Yes I’m so happy now.

@ djheavyduty – You really think we’re going to win 18 in a row with our upcoming schedule:
