Game 52 - Nets vs. Bucks - Wednesday, February 10, 7:30

The snows may keep people away, but as of Wednesday afternoon, the Nets and Bucks are planning to go at it. In spite of seven straight losses, the Nets are playing as well as they have all season, in every game for the last seven...at least through three quarters. The Bucks lost to the Pistons Tuesday, with Andrew Bogut going for 17 points and 18 rebounds. It's the Nets last game before All-Star Break.

Did the flights take off from Milwaukee and Cleveland for these teams?

Newark has canceled over 400 flights coming in

Yeah I don’t see this game going at all. If we get 13-18 as they predict than they won’t go. It will end up getting postponed like the Wizards game a few nights ago.

Also I feel like it would be stupid to risk people lives over a game that would draw about 8,000 in perfect conditions, and probably less than 100 in these conditions.

Have a snow day Nets and enjoy your long All Star break…you guys sure need it….

If it comes down like forcasted, there will be too much snow for anyone to travel.

@ psychonetsfan34 and @ JustinNJ – I already said this all on a previous entry.

Seems like every team just fools around with us for the first 2-3 quarters of the game, not really using their full strength. Then they just turn on the switch for the 4th quarter and bury us.

In more pleasant news, KY beat AL by about 11 tonight. It was a close game against a bad team.
Although Wall had 20 pts. and 10 boards, he only had 2 assists and wasn’t superman in anyway.

Commentator Jay Williams (Duke/Bulls) hinted that he is overrated and that the these days the media is over hyping young players. He said ESPN is asking for the top 2 plays each night from Wall and runs with them, thus continuing the Hype.

Cousins has been the best player for KY lately. He will probably be up there with Dwight Howard for NBA rebound leaders. Yet, if Nets get #3/#4 peak, I’m not sure if BLopez could play with DeMarcus.
Nets would have to abandon the Best Player Available rule.

On Sunday, Evan Turner had 32 pts, 7 boards, 5 assists, 4 steals against Iowa.

Joe P. will try to go if the roads are passable just to say that he was the only one who attended an NBA game. Honestly, who would go to this game? Why would anyone want to risk getting into an accident or getting stuck in the snow to see a 4-47 team play basketball? They should just postpone it if we are getting the 12-18 inches they are predicting. It would be funny and amusing if they play the game and their are only like 50 people there.

favors>cousins

favors is a year younger

jerry,

Great post man. I have been suspect of Wall for awhile now and Jay Williams was right for exposing the truth

I am in love with Evan Turner’s game and he brings exactly what the Nets need on the perimeter. I’m sort of praying that we get the #2 pick because the pressure would be on for the Nets to select wall due to the hype.

by Mr. Dollar Bills on Feb 10, 2010 6:46 AM EST reply actions  

if we get the 1st or 2nd pick…i would trade yi and possibly somemthing else for favors or aldrich

Harris
Lee
Turner
Favors
Lopez

by Andy on Feb 10, 2010 8:42 AM EST reply actions  

To be fair, Jay Williams may be a little jealous, but he was picking apart every mistake Wall made (and implied that if Wall stayed in college like he did, he would get over those mistakes).

Nets fans should realize that the “healthy and motivated” Devin Harris would be better than this John Wall, so don’t be so quick to trade Devin yet.

Regarding Favors, I haven’t seen him much, but haven’t been impressed with what I have seen (NBA project). He is dropping in rankings and will drop more when GT is out of NCAA. Maybe he could play alongside Brook, but Nets getting DLee would be an immediate sure thing.

i like turner and hes prob my 1st choice…but favors is so strong and so young. He doesnt turn 19 until after the draft…he’s defense is very good and he’s a good rebounder (always boxes out). he cant create his own shot and offensively is very raw but has so much potential.

by Andy on Feb 10, 2010 8:57 AM EST reply actions  

just chat with someone on njnets.com game most likely will be postponed?

by matt on Feb 10, 2010 9:35 AM EST reply actions  

Regarding the weather; I am in Harrisburg, PA and this storm has intensified and turned into Blizzard conditions in many counties and headed your way. More snow than predicted everywhere, with drifts of over a foot in areas. Winds will be picking up.

Can’t imagine any game. Has it been called yet?

by jerry25 on Feb 10, 2010 10:02 AM EST reply actions  

It’s good that fans can take the train to the game.
Oops, that is next year in Newark.

by Jersey Pride on Feb 10, 2010 10:19 AM EST reply actions  

If anyone chooses to go, I’m sure this will be one of those games that they allow people to come down from the upper deck. They always do that during snowstorms when no one came. I used to live in hoboken a few years ago and bought $20 tickets the day of the game and ended up 9 rows from the court.

by Tom on Feb 10, 2010 11:00 AM EST reply actions  

If both teams and officials made it to the arena the game will be on.

by Marv95 on Feb 10, 2010 12:10 PM EST reply actions  

I hope it’s canceled, but I’ll be going if it’s not – as long as the roads aren’t too bad.

I am in Philadelphia, PA (but still a nets fan), it is beyond impossible to drive…Can there be any game today?!

The game is ON. Teams are at the arena.

It’s insane, but it’s on.
