Nets Come Back Twice To Beat Wizards as D-Will, Hump Star

PrintThe Nets' 2011-12 season got off to a real ugly start. But they managed to recover (twice) to beat the Wizards, 90-84, in Washington on Monday.
The Nets committed turnovers on their first three possessions of the game and missed their first five shots from the field. They trailed by as many as 21 points midway through the second quarter, but were within eight at halftime and took the lead midway through the third.
An 11-0 Wizards run put Washington up by eight early in the fourth, but the Nets came back again and led by eight with 1:37 left. Washington made a final run and had a chance to tie with a three with less than 30 seconds left, but Kris Humphries got his hand on a John Wall pass and Anthony Morrow sealed the game at the free throw line.
The Nets shot just 41 percent from the field, but outrebounded the Wizards, 58-39. Deron Williams led the way with 23 points and eight assists, adding eight rebounds. Humphries had a double-double in the middle of the third period and finished with 21 points and 16 rebounds. Morrow struggled early, but finished with 16 points. Johan Petro hit some big shots, Damion James added 14 rebounds, and Sundiata Gaines gave the Nets a big lift off the bench.

Even Blazers fans are excited we're undefeated.
2010-2011 = acquire an All-Star via cap space as Thorn himself said
2011-2012 = make the playoffs without hindering future flexibility
2012 off-season = sign the second All-Star
2012-2013 = make a run for the championship
Mission accomplished thus far.
LESGOOOOOOOOOO UNDEFEATED
That millisecond you're sure you're going to die when you lean back in your chair a little too far.
My thoughts
I’ve never seen Petro play so well. Good job, Johan.
Humphries is back in shape. Glad to see last year wasn’t a fluke. Kudos.
I appreciate Okur’s steadiness and calm. I feel comfortable with him on the floor.
Deron is what he is. He can simply take over.
Billy King probably told Farmar’s agent he will look to move him to a team where he can get some playing time. He was yawning with a minute and 9 seconds left in a close game – not a good thing to see.
Morrow with a dagger 3 at an opportune time and a couple clutch free throws, as well. Well done, Tony.
I didn’t even recognize DeShawn Stevenson with the shaved head. He looks like a changed man, lol.
Horrible start but we must have had butterflies. Overall, I’m pleased. However, one caveat: Wizards are not a good team, so let’s see how we do against the Hawks.

Outstanding effort
Ran the floor well and crashed the boards… but he dropped at least three passes right in the chest from D-Will and lost the handle a few times too.
Happy to see Billy King graduated in an accelerated "how to make a trade" class in just one night :)

I was screaming at Petro all night
but by the time he took that top of the key jumper in the last minute, i wasn’t even mad. he had earned the right to miss that shot by the way he played tonight.

He took that one cause D-Will encouraged him to do so
He passed on the previous shot when he was open and gave it up to Hump who got double teamed right away…D-Will pulled Petroleum to the side and made the shot gestured meaning he should have shot it

D-Will had an MVP type game. When he was on the court the Nets looked great, off the court, well not so much.
I hope the Nets can bring Kris back for Brooklyn.

WOW! what a game!
I was contemplating whether this season was even worth watching after the 1st quarter, but D-WIll turned it around! He stepped it up and put the team on his back. Humphries was phenomenal, Gaines was a spark, Ammo was cold but turned it up, and Petro is PETROFL! Lets go Nets!
JAMES
Someone on the telecast made a great point that DJames needs to find out what his niche is gonna be in the NBA…

smith had the numbers
dj is just one of those guys that doesnt stop…ever. He’s a guy u find on every winning team.
exactly what we need
defends, bumps bodies, rebounds, hard fouls
To me, he was the third most important guy to this win tonight. This team needs more toughness. Look at the way they got to the hole tonight. When they started closing the hole, they stopped getting the easy baskets. Having him help Hump with the boards was key because they were KILLING us in the paint. As stated earlier, that’s the type of guy you have on every winning team. When his shot isn’t falling, he does the little things to help this team win. You gotta love it!!!!

I liked how Brooks played
But he needs to learn how the refs are going to call the game but that comes with experience , but good 6 points in minutes.
"We're not there yet, but we're going somewhere," Johnson said. "And we're going to Brooklyn. We're not going to contract. We're going to Brooklyn."
eh i don't think that's a big deal
it also depends who you’re playing with. besides, it was his first game, and he gave us a couple of points early on
In Brooks defense, I’m pretty sure he didn’t see any minutes with Deron.

Unbelievable comeback
Tremendous victory. Glad I didn’t turn it off. That first quarter was brutal.
The Nets played pretty good defense by the eye test. I haven't checked out the Stats yet.

Its amazing how many people were calling to trade Morrow and claiming he was the next Outlaw. He goes on to hit some key jump shots, a dagger 3 pointer, and knocked down his free throws to put the game out of reach to finish the game. It’s still only one game, RELAX !!
i did say he was looking like Outlaw
but he was in the first half. he was a shooter who couldnt hit a shot, and completely useless otherwise.

That can catch and finish
"We're not there yet, but we're going somewhere," Johnson said. "And we're going to Brooklyn. We're not going to contract. We're going to Brooklyn."
Send Farmar, Morrow and a future pick for Granger - They can slide Paul George to SF
while Morrow plays SG. Farmar can compete with Collison for PG. May have to include Petro or James. Maybe we take back Dahntay Jones.
Last year this would have been a 50 point loss.

He doesn't actually drive to the basket.
He does the half step hesitation. Doesn’t seem like he actually commits to going to the basket.
Pretty good game.
Worried about this team burning out.
Need another quality big.

Utah will cooperate in an AK sign-and-trade
if we can get them something maybe from a 3rd team
That's only two.
You don’t expect above average performance from Petro consistently, do you?
I just don’t think Farmar has enough value to net a solid big.

depends on what kinf of guard, they don't have 1 true point gurad in their rotation...
Their rotation guards Evans, Thornton and Fredette, these guys are scorers
DWill all the way to the Finals!! some day, very close...
WE need Farmer
if DWill gets hurt, Gaines is not a 30 min a night player. It;s only 1 game, he could score 20 tomm. Also, with this sched, a good pack up point is a ness. Gaines is a great 3rd guard..depending who’s got it on a nightly basis, either Farmar or Gaines will get the minutes. Both are valuable
we need a 3rd pg but we don't need farmar
farmar is always making dumb passes and taking dumb shots. and that pouting/yawning business on the bench was too much.
nah he's just a band-aid till Brook gets back

That millisecond you're sure you're going to die when you lean back in your chair a little too far.
d-will tried a behind the back, mind you this is in the middle of a mini washington comeback, crossover, got ripped
wall got it on the break, d-will and hump trailed, dj hustle i think cut him off at the free throw line and tried to foul but kinda missed but wall just threw the layup up and d-will came from behind and sorta decked him old-school hard foul “no layups” style
so Wall gets up and runs up on D-will. D-will started bellin and checked him. “What set you claim? Saw you reppin last year against the C’s? Soooo-Woooooo” And then DJ Hustle and Humphries ran up for the back-doe.
Wall now scared to death scared to look checking fo the homies and see only Blatche run up to have his back but it was Eff with Dray Day and everybody was ready to celebrate so then Wall fold up like a straight busta and asked the refs to hurry up and let him shoot his free throws

Along with D-will punking Wall.
"We're not there yet, but we're going somewhere," Johnson said. "And we're going to Brooklyn. We're not going to contract. We're going to Brooklyn."
D-will drove to the basket did a fake behind the back pass
then threw it up to the right which looked like a shot but was a pass to HUMP.

Mission accomplished thus far.
The defense carried this team
this is how the Nets will have to win. The perimeter d was aggressive, James and Hump played a physical, hard assed game.
If only the Nets played the Wizards every night...
They desperately need something out of SWISH and Ohpoor. They aren’t going to win games without them over the long term.

this was a laugher through the first quarter and I thought this one was over before it even started. great to see Hump hasn’t lost a step. He will need to keep the momentum up till Brook gets back. Hopefully this victory installs some confidence in the guys as they get started on these first 6 games in 8 nights. these are how our wins are going to come this year. gritty and ugly. we aren’t going to blow anyone out and these games, at least the ones we are in, are going to be anxiety ridden. i can honestly say I am proud of them for the way they played tonight.
For those going to the game tomorrow, we have got to show our appreciation. let’s get loud and stay loud. and lets give Hump a raucous ovation at intros. he deserves it and he deserves to know how much we love the guy.

Seeing Deron Williams today was crazy… and Hump was incredible, playing with Deron is going to do him wonders.

damn hahah
i thought they were loaded too. spaced on the fact that everyone’s old.
This is why I didn't want the Nets to sign Vince Carter. He makes every team he's on worse now.
2010-2011 = acquire an All-Star via cap space as Thorn himself said
2011-2012 = make the playoffs without hindering future flexibility
2012 off-season = sign the second All-Star
2012-2013 = make a run for the championship
Mission accomplished thus far.
33-33
Enough for the 8th.
They’ll get better and better as they gel the new members, and Brook will add.
Lets watch Outlaw warm the bench?
He ain’t starting.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
Horrible start, great finish
Hopefully, Avery and the team learns a little from tonight. I know we have a lot of 3 point shooters but we have to attack inside-out, especially if they aren’t falling.
The bench is a work in progress but it was hard for them to get into it after the starters stunk it up like that in the 1st quarter. I like Shawne Williams but the guy can’t play the 3 unless all we want our 3 to do is shoot spot up 3s. DJ could atleast attack the basket and grab boards. Avery needs to play Stevenson at 3 and Shawne @ the 4. I think we’ll be fine though. If our 3s were falling which they should since we have a lot of great shooters (Deron, Morrow, Okur, Shawne), we would’ve done much better. We missed a TON of open shots to start – it happens. I really liked our defense once we buckled down in the 4th.
Shw Williams lost a week to the flu
he gets a pass.

True
But coming to the Nets from a high-paced offense like the Knicks, you wonder how well he’ll transition and whether his corner three pt % will regress.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
He's really a stretch four
It depends on the matchup.
Oh pissing blimey there's jam coming out of the walls!
I mean, don’t get me wrong, I like Shawne Williams and think he should play. He doesn’t need a pass from me because I just think he was being misplayed. At the 4, he spaces the floor out and gets open shots because big guys want to protect the paint/are slower. At the 3, especially against a big 3 like Rashard, his shooting is nullified because he doesn’t have the ability to create for himself. I’m not completely sold on his ability to defend 3s but I haven’t seen enough to judge. I just think having him at the 4 maximizes his strengths and shores up one of our weaknesses.
I’m not calling for his head or anything, I think the 3s’ll start falling. He’s just getting his legs under him.

Great WIN! Feels good when the team wins!
I told you guys that the HUMP was the real deal and not a fluke contract year! The guy is our Blake Griffin and can be the high flyer we’ve been missing since K-Mart! THIS GUY MUST GET A STANDING OVATION TOMORROW!
LETS GO NETS!
Stockton (D-Will) to Malone (Hump)
Hump averaged 14 and 14 after the D-Will trade. No reason he can’t approach those numbers.

Petro
I’ve got to admit Petro was awesome today. Last thing I expected but he hit jump shots, was active on defense and on the boards. He made a couple nice passes too which blew my mind.
i guess his 10ish mpg last year wasn't enough for him to get warmed up
he constantly made big shots that kept us in the game

Too many 3pters
Way too many 3pters shot in transition for my liking. If we had done that against a better team we would have been routed.
Hump once again proves he may be the most underrated player in the entire NBA. Dude put up Dwight #’s tonite.
Morrow needs to hit at least 1 non 3pter b4 running behind the line and jacking shots.
No need for Farmar if Gaines is going to play that well.
Marshon needs the green light. Let the kid go he is gonna make mistakes but he has game. His moves to the basket are really quick for a rookie.
Djames was a beast out there I expected this type of game from him.
Okur doesnt hurt you out there.

a win is a win
especially a win when we’re without our 2nd best player and we have guys that need a few practices to get in shape and to learn the O
You know what makes this win special?
a)Nets showed toughness that we haven’t seen in 5 seasons. they got curbstomped at the start of this game and they kept up the fight.
b)the defensive intensity on the perimeter was a breath of fresh air. I credit the coaching staff for this as well as
c)we finally see just how great Deron Williams is. He had nothing to work with on offense and he led this team to war. Guys stepped up
d)Our two starting forwards are tough as nails.

YES
that’s why i’m so impressed.
and we thought our frontline was our biggest problem
well
we need Brook. Badly.
We will have to score ugly to win games…scoring ugly means intense physical defense, 2nd chance points, and creating baskets off of TOs.
by MrDollarBills on Dec 26, 2011 11:25 PM EST up reply actions
yeah we definitely need Brook back
but you’re absolutely right. The wins we get are mostly going to be from tough defense and hustle, and Deron taking the lead on offense, especially without Lopez.

"It's as sweet as it ever was, I'll tell you. Now, hopefully, we started something and we can win some more championships, but we're going to enjoy this one right now. Have a little champagne." --Julius Erving, May 12, 1976, ABA champion Nets locker room.
Once again
We beat the bulls last year without Dwill
What makes you think we cant beat them with Dwill and a better team?
Gutty win gang!
Awesome game for DJ, Hump, Dwill, Petro and gaines! Morrow was off but hit some clutch shots in the end too!
Memo looked lost but should get better with time!
Can we trade Farmar for a wing already?!
Think we need another big more than a win
If hump gets in foul trouble were done.
"We're not there yet, but we're going somewhere," Johnson said. "And we're going to Brooklyn. We're not going to contract. We're going to Brooklyn."
i expect farmar to get alot of minutes tomorrow vs hawks

we need to play intense against them

Johnson was asked about Tuesday night’s game against the visiting Atlanta Hawks being his team’s last home openener before the move to Brooklyn. “We’re going to have a lot of situations like that this year. That game is going to be `the last home opener’ — and the next home game is going to be `the last second home game.’ It’s going to go on and on,”

My Dwight filter is on off until I see him at a press conference
Focusing on the team we have now..Very gritty, gutsy win. DJames hustled and I loved that. Wish he would get the butter off those fingers though…The guy cant catch
We need a slasher who can stop these droughts by getting to the ine. A G Wallace or SJax type of guy. Probably no shot with our need to preserve cap though.

Who else loved the physical play?
DJ and Hump were bringing it. I’m not sure how many times Wall got knocked on his ass.
When DeShawn loses his lockout belly and Shawne Williams gets his ass in gear, that’s two more guys that will play hard defense.
DJ is a good kid. He makes mistakes(he seems to be scared to catch the ball) but he hustles non stop.
and Hump at 8 mil is worth every cent.
Understood. I am really impressed with James mostly.
We need help on the Boards.
Hump can really cash in because of Lopez injury. Can really up his value.
I go to UT and been pumping up my man DJ
Dude has a CRAZY NON STOP motor… goes after boards like an animal!
And his perimeter D is top notch too.
He needs better hands and needs to hit some Js though.
Loved the toughness
as long as NETS players dont get hurt in the process. I dont care about opposing players.

I didn't say for sure

yeah, of course I was just giving you my opinion...
Those 3 teams will be definitely better than last season, so they will be dangerous and win some games over good teams, but for now don’t have a chance to make the playoffs… The only new team in West making the playoffsthis year will be the Cipllers and in a high seed.
As far as the East Conference the fight will be much more open, we will probably fight with the Sixers and Bucks for the 8th seed, and I truly don’t know how is going to be Orlando’s year.

I agree, but only in respect to the Lakers. The Mavs cannot make a move in season. They are only a threat come the offseason. However, we do need to hope the Lakers pick things up. If do not, it might just push them into doing something big to shake things up as you said, which will mean they turn their eyes to the big man in Orlando.

I've sad it before and I'll say it again......Hump = All-Star
He gets his points and rebounds so quietly…..He’s amazing……
He sure as hell ain't going to be voted in with the love fest from the fans.
But he’s going to need to put up big numbers along with the guaranteed All-Star D-Willz if this team is going to make the playoffs.

as soon as we have a cap hold on him and can re-sign to go over the cap… he’ll look great next to Duh-white (Avery voice)

I had to blink twice to make sure that wasn’t Dennis Rodman.

he's a cheaper version of Kevin Love

His game is better suited for NETS
Love doesn’t fill his shoes imo.
He doesn’t dunk or block shots like Hump.

DJ is a really good defender
I guess
DeShawn is REALLY out of shape… he played 12 seconds.
And Memo should start tomorrow.

I think they’re going to need him against Joe Johnson. He’s too good and too strong for Morrow.

Farmar barely played
OJ mayo played 17 min.
hmmmm
But we’d have too many people at SG…
I wish we would package Farmar + someone for a real nice piece
by corky_romano4life on Dec 27, 2011 1:16 AM EST reply actions
do we really though?
we’ve barely seen Shawne play, we haven’t seen Stevenson play, and Morrow might not be starter quality. We still need a wing who could penetrate and shoot.
by sheepareevil on Dec 27, 2011 1:20 AM EST up reply actions
true
I wonder if the majority of Nets fans (and obviously nets’ FO) would do Morrow + Farmar for Mayo
by corky_romano4life on Dec 27, 2011 1:23 AM EST up reply actions
nah
I’d hold onto Morrow. Memphis was ready to give away Mayo for Josh McRoberts so I don’t think we have give up quite that much. maybe Farmar and a pick or cash or something.
by sheepareevil on Dec 27, 2011 1:24 AM EST up reply actions
I would definitely do
Mayo for Farmar + 2nd round pick
Deron, Gains
Mayo, Brooks
James, Stevenson
Humphries, Shawne
Okur, Petro, Shelden
by corky_romano4life on Dec 27, 2011 1:30 AM EST up reply actions
I don't know who wouldn't
but would Memphis? they just traded Vasquez so they’re weak at the PG position. but it probably remains to be seen if they don’t want to just hold onto Mayo. then again, Rudy Gay is back, there might be a clash there since Mayo is essentially just a less versatile, less effective version of Gay.

somebody mentioned that he might play more tomorrow

Excited
Great win. Faced with a 21 point deficit, to come back and win, is pretty damn impressive. Haven’t seen that kind of fight in the Nets in a long long time. Humphries looked great. Not only was he a beast on the boards but he has definitely improved his mid range jumper. It’s pathetic/funny that he’s getting booed the way he is, and I hope he gets a lot of cheers tomorrow night. Sundiata Gaines looked great, I’ve said all offseason that he is a solid player, but did not expect him to take Farmars spot already. Added great energy. Damion James looked very good as well as a scrappy player who can board and clean up. The biggest surprise was Petro though, I along with I’m sure every fan was screaming every time he took a shot…but they were dropping. He’s just got to learn how to stop fouling so much. Okur didn’t look that great, but he has been here only for a few days and I think will definitely improve and take over the starting role soon enough.
Shawne Williams looked horrendous, wow, I really hope he is still sick or something. Morrow also looked terrible minus that dagger 3. I am not worried about Morrow though. However, he may be better in a 6th man type role. Marshon looked like good offense off the bench, but the sample size wasn’t too big. Overall, a good win, and tomorrow should be a good test on the 2nd night of a back to back while Atlanta is fresh and in their first game.

Nets just barely beat one of the weakest teams in NBA ball tonight. But I’ll take it. That’s what the Nets are, although that could change depending on the development of James, the integration of Okur, Brooks getting experience.
I only watched the second half but here are my Good things and Bad things.
Good things: Humphries getting 20 points. James and Humphries rebounding. Physical team defense. Petro not making big mistakes, hitting a fair amount of his shots. Deron’s ability to score when the Nets needed it by playing around a pick. Team passing. Gaines steady point guard play. Morrow’s shooting.
Bad things: James lack of offense (passing up open jumpers). Brooks looking over-matched on defense, getting beaten easily on a screen. D-Will going too fast and turning the ball over.
ok win is a win
But Wiz will be a team to make some noise this season, east aint that tough exept 3-4 teams
by Aidar Berlinbayev on Dec 27, 2011 1:44 AM EST up reply actions
Wizards lost that game
John Wall did not play good. He was out of control and more importantlyl couldn’t hit free throws. Andray Blatche played with no effort, just shot jumpshots and did not seem to care at all about the game. Also he was dominated on the glass
I agree the wizards blew it
but you don’t come back from a 21 point lead deficit without team effort. our guys deserve a lot of credit
by sheepareevil on Dec 27, 2011 1:30 AM EST up reply actions
2 Key after watching the Wizard games
1. Nets just out hustled and out rebounded the Wizards which also lead to 2nd chance points
2. Wizards missed a ton of free throws.

I don't like reading post game threads
Its almost ridiculous. Just the love/hate relationship. Petro may go back to his old self tomorrow. I wish this is start of something new but honestly this is the first good game I ever seen him have. Also what if Farmar comes off the bench tomorrow and drops 20 would anyone want him trade?
Gaines I feel is a one game wonder, I don’t think hes really good at anything. We def need to see some consistency.
Hopefully we will see it though
Okur and Shawne Williams, how could anyone expect anything from them tonight when they have barely had any practices?
If Damion James can be a consistent stopper that would be awesome.
Thats the Bi-Polar effect i love too watch
We beat the Wizards and its like we clinched a playoff spot on this board XD. But i was happy and exited we won along with our epic comeback

Judging from our schedule
this might be the easiest team along with the Cav’s this team will play. Tomorrow should be a good barometer to see if we can beat a better and playoff team in the Hawks.

what? there are much worse teams than the Wizards
Bobcats, Pistons, Raptors, Hornets, Cavs to name a few
by sheepareevil on Dec 27, 2011 1:49 AM EST up reply actions
Hornets don’t belong with those teams, the Gordon/Okafor team up has potential to be pretty explosive.
Im just saying our team is
missing there 2nd best player and still figuring out there team so there are no easy W’s ahead of us. Tonight the Nets just out hustled the Wizards and wanted it more.

We beat the Hawks last year
without Dwill and this better team.
I think we should stop saying who we will or will not beat. Clearly the power houses will be tough, but lets take it game by game.
Its our low post game I'm worried about
we just out hustled the Wizards last night, which helped us win. Plus the Wizards missed alot of Free throws as well, which switch the momentum of the game. Greta win, 65 more to go.

Woooo just finished watching encore
loved what i saw… obviously a ton of ineptitude early but maybe this Gaines/Williams combo can work… it seems like everyone is aware of their roles already. Okur looked bad but it’s still early, and Stevenson played what, 18 seconds? but i guess that’s sort of to be expected.
Hump was a BEAST. i’m so happy that he isn’t letting this unfortunate situation affect him
Hump is doing his thing
I hope he keeps it up.
I’m very much looking forward to an increased contribution from Stevenson, Sha Williams, and Okur

I would be pissed
if I was a Wizards fan. Blatche and McGee should be a top-5 frontcourt in the NBA. Maturity and lack of basketball IQ keep these fools at the bottom. Great resilience showed by our Nets tonight, AMAZING!! Section 12 tomorrow for the home opener, LET’S GO NETS!!!

I have had no hope for Blatche for a long time now. I've often said that if you plopped someone unfamiliar with the Wizards in front of a Wiz game
They’d think Blatche was a really tall shooting guard
not all blatche's fault
after the game blatche told anyone who’d listen he doesn’t like his role in the offense as a pick and pop guy and desperately wants to be in the paint.
One down, 30 to go?
I said this before, this was a must win against a weaker team. But Wash has some pretty decent players and Wall gave DWILL a run for his money. But DWILL, despite trying a little too hard, showed why he is one of the best PG in the league. Glad for THE HUMPH. Let the idiots boo him, as long as he gets 21 and 16 every night. Wash’s front court has size, and DJAMES was playing against bigger guys all night, and had 14 rebounds, but needs to take open shots. Let’s see how we do against a playoff team tonight. A win tonight would be B I G! GO NETS! AND to hell with that no talent, fat ass, KK!

hump has been great ever since favors got traded
i’ve got to give hump a lot of credit for working hard and being in great shape despite all the nonsense in his life. go hump!
That's exactly what he is imo
If Nets get Dwight, he’d be a good complement. Nets need to try to keep him either way.
I’m rooting for Brooks but he was guarding his man last night like they were the only two people on the court. The forward comes over on the pick and roll and MarShon sleepwalks right into him.

I take back everything I have said about
Hump.
I thought he would be a distraction. All the booing is but it isnt bothering him.
I thought he was on a contract year. He still is but has stepped up a little more.
I thought he was an idiot for marrying Kim. He still is but if he can put up Boozer(UTAH) numbers and form a Boozer/Dwill type of chemistry. I am ok with that for this year.
