Tight Game Ends in Tough Loss

PrintSome Nets' mistakes down the stretch --and clutch play by the Grizzlies-- sent New Jersey down to their seventh straight defeat at Prudential Center Wednesday. The game was close throughout until the last three minutes. The two teams were tied at 92 with 3:18 left, but the Grizzlies outscored the Nets 13-8 over the final stretch to clinch it.
Mike Conley, Tony Allen and Rudy Gay dominated in the last few minutes, with the Grizzlies athletic point guard scoring four points and handing out two assists in the last three minutes. But the Nets helped with four crucial turnovers, two each by Deron Williams and Marshon Brooks. For the game, Brooks had six turnovers and Williams four.
In the first half the Nets played some of their best offensive basketball of the season, scoring 55 points, led by Deron Williams 20, but stalled in the second as Memphis picked up the pace. D-Will scored only six points the rest of the game and none in the fourth.
Gay scored 25 points and Allen matched his season high with 21. Marreese Speights added a season-high 20 points and a career-high 18 rebounds as the Nets were unable to block him out. It was a Speights tip with 1:01 left that put the Grizzlies up by six. Brooks wound up with 12 points on 5-for-9 shooting (2-for-3 from deep) but his rust continued to show on defense and in ball-handling. Anthony Morrow played well late, finishing with 17. Shelden Williams recorded his first double-double of the season.

Tonight an example of Humphries being crap this season
Letting Speights have a career game and an all star statline of 20/18 on 10-13 FG shooting.
As long as we dont make a moiso move at the trade deadline
we’re set for a solid year next year.
Extend Brook, mentor Brooks, draft a PF, sign a veteran PF to a 2-3 year to mentor the rook, get Bogey over from Europe. Get a solid answer from Dwill if he wants to stay here and trade him if there’s time before the end of the season.
This should not be a win now team.
A Nets fan deep in Knicks territory. SOS
Nope
Dwight contingency plan. I might be in the minority, but I think we’re okay without him. DWill ads too much pressure to win now and we’re not good enough to be a win now team

we’re gonna be like the Mets are to the Yankees if Dwight doesn’t come here, which is a sad way to live.

Everyone could be gone next year while we wait for Dwight’s decision
- They didn’t extend Lopez
- Deron could opt out and walk
- Hump will be an unrestricted free agent and can walk
The only players under contract worth anything are Morrow and Brooks.
It looks like Dwight wants to come here and I hope he does but who knows.

We’re not some playoff team, that much is clear. None of this is important whether we get Dwight or not. If we do get Dwight, none of this matters since we’ll be quickly better. If we don’t get Dwight, none of this matters because the draft is the only thing to look forward to.

Was at the PNY Center today…looks like a normal team, but really its not. Its a team in waiting and if they dont get Howard and D-Will leaves, the franchise will be set back five years.

Nope, 2 years, not 5. I’ve done the math. They would have had Favors and someone like Kanter over last year and this year and next year wouldn’t have them. That’s 2 years of stocking up on young talent selected in the draft, not 5.

Knicks winning. Nets losing. Media making the Nets look second fiddle to the Knicks. Deron Williams getting upset with the media and Linsanity. Not the kind of tone we want to be setting heading into the All-Star break. These guys will talk and formulate plans. They need to see that we have a foundation. Right now, you have to start questioning if this coaching staff would even help us win even with Dwight and Deron.

Bright Side is this though
One Player can change a franchise that much is clear across the Hudson and they found him on the waiver wire. (hmmmm I wonder if we claim him if we weren’t so in love with Sunday Gaines)
Houston makes Playoffs and we continue to suck that’s 2 top picks in a loaded draft. With a GM who drafts pretty well. Marshon and an Extended Brook and maybe Boggs comes over too. And its a exciting young talented team.
Jersey is cursed for our franchise and the moment we hit Brooklyn things will get better. Who knows we could have a TEAM of Jeremy Linn’s Next year. And that’s with or without Deron.

I'm happy with tonight. Gave a great effort. Memphis is more talented. I expected them to win. I'll always expect the more talented team to win.
I can’t get mad if the less talented team didn’t win, unless they just give the game away Milt Pilacio style. That wasn’t tonight. Tonight was acceptable, imo.

In terms of fanship, I’m extremely apathetic. However, I usually have some emotional response after games (whether it be positive or negative). Over the course of the last two weeks, I’ve realized that I don’t really have a reaction to the outcome. It’s interesting.

Of course based on other poeple’s fan posts we could always just go at each others throats as nets fan for fun . That’s a much more productive way to release our anger or apathy. =)

the east didn't have a chance
best the east could do was get swept in the finals.
still, those were our glory days.
1 thing is sure, by this summer we'll either have Dwight or Anthony Davis/Andre Drummond/MKG/Harrison Barnes/Jared Sullinger on this team
Things are looking up
The latter going into Brooklyn
Would be nightmare. It would be like the Mets with their new ballpark and we all know how that’s going.

ticket prices are absurd, and millions can’t even watch their games.
You say “wins” as if it’s something they have always been doing. They play in a massive market and still sucked for a full decade. Still looking for their first playoff win since 2001. You wouldn’t be saying “the team wins” if they weren’t saved by an individual who they themselves didn’t expect to do anything close to this much.

I’m pretty sure everyone understood these are just roster holds considering they were signed a week before the season on bargain bin deals. Lets not forget that Brook Lopez is important to this team!

Honestly Shelden is starting to annoy me.
I know he isn’t the most talented guy offensively but i expect him to boz out, play defense and get rebounds.
Tonight that did not happen
had a double double, he isnt a great player to begin with
by RandyOreens on Feb 15, 2012 11:32 PM EST up reply actions
Every time they missed a shot, Speights would get the board and put it in
That is not what i expect from a player who is making a living from playing solid defense
yeah we have two 7 footers in petro and sheldon and none of them play like it

Only game that matters now is Mondays game.
Brook should return and Nets will end Linsanity.

you can take this as a morale victory.
You were close most of the game. Need a clutch closer.
If Farmar hadn’t been injured, maybe Nets would’ve won.
"Beware the Ides of March."
Lol Bondy writes a Nets article with Lin in the title
really a fantastic time to be a Nets fan. Complete and utter irrelevancy.
editors write headlines.

Any one of them would look nice next to Williams, Howard, Brooks, and Lopez.

I bet this off season Avery,King and Deron got to pick a player each
Deron picked Stevenson
Avery picked Shawne
King picked Shelden
I don't understand +/-
I just seems like the most useless stat ever, yet it is constantly reference
by SovietBrooklyn on Feb 15, 2012 11:54 PM EST up reply actions
well when Petro was in we out scored them by 15
by RandyOreens on Feb 15, 2012 11:55 PM EST up reply actions
I get that
but watching the game he was clearly a liability on the defensive end. My point is +/- is a deceiving stat because it doesn’t take into account more important factors then the individual player being on the court

Is wise for make bet on Net player Anthony Morrow to win “three point contest.” Other contestants may have suspicious injury.
maybe we’re losing on purpose on the occasion we keep our pick? See dwayne wade & the heat the year before they got lebron & bosh.
They were the 5th seed in the East that year...

Sigh.
Who cares, at this point. There’s shooting yourself in the foot, and then theres pointing your rocket launcher at the ground a la Doom2. This Nets team is unwatchable with this historically horrific rash of injuries. Of course the Knicks would find this bizarre resurgence. Of course the Nets would have as bad a season as possible going into their big move!
It's the Williams' show!
Too bad we lost though.. But I like what I saw in the first half. Lots of energy, the Nets were actually fun to watch. Good game.
Does anyone know how Lin played when he was at harvard.......??????
Was he any good…?//……How did he score,etc……?
16.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.1 blocks
A Nets fan deep in Knicks territory. SOS
honestly if not for morrow being in the contest would u care at all??
to quote woj who i heard being interviewed earlier on fox sports radio, he said the contest is so bad, if these guys were shooting in your driveway, u wouldnt bother opening the window shade to watch them.
by num1netsnut on Feb 16, 2012 12:45 AM EST via mobile reply actions
honestly
i know you’re all sick of moral victories, but I wasn’t that mad we lost. we fought hard, showed improvement in areas, but did what bad teams do at the end of games, screw it up (especially Marshon, who is young and gets a pass for now). I still believe in the “master plan” and for that reason I’m not too worried.
at the end of the day what can you do but keep hoping
Anthony Davis and Austin Rivers.......
The two players that I’d like to see the Nets draft this year……
Her is the Nets Big Problem........Right Now....
We need a couple of ENFORCERS…….Guys not afraid to commit really hard fouls…….Like Demarcus Cousins….Ronny Turiaf. , Kendrick perkins…….This squad that we have now , including Lopez is way , way too soft……….
what are we fighting

before I can perfect my impression of him.
I have been practicing for three years and I can now sound like him 48% of the time.
