Game 6 – Nets @ 76ers – Friday, November 6, 7:00

November 6, 2009, 12:14 pm

The Nets travel to Philadelphia Friday but they will be traveling light. Six Nets are in the sick bay: Keyon Dooling (hip); Tony Battie (knee); Jarvis Hayes (hamstring); Devin Hayes (groin); Yi Jianlian (knee) and Chris Douglas-Roberts (flu). We hope Sly has medical insurance. The Sixers, coached by former Nets assistant Eddie Jordan, are 2-2 and are led by Elton Brand, who knows something about injuries.

  1. Hank Essay Says:

    Have we lost yet?

  2. SayBye2Yi Says:

    0 – 6

  3. Tim Says:

    Call me crazy, but I feel a win. Even though Brook needs Devin, I think he will be able to squeeze at least one good game without him, and this is the team to do it against.

  4. the twelveyearold diehard nets fan Says:

    At this point id rather have this team losing and locking up a high draft pick and then next summer we can go shopping for bron bron and bosh imagine if we got those two!!!
    PG-Harris
    SG- Lee or CDR
    SF- Lebron
    PF-BOsh
    C-PEZ

    Bench: yi, lee, or cdr, terrence williams, etc. that would be sickkkk

  5. VC3 Says:

    another L for L Frank

  6. JustinNJ Says:

    Lets win this one!

  7. jarkid Says:

    0-6 no doubt. Iguodala with 35 points.

  8. Randy Oreens Says:

    Tommrow we might have the worst starting 5 in NBA history

  9. Andy Says:

    twill at sf!

  10. NetFan48 Says:

    I think frank should suit up…Then we will be playing Real small Ball….Actually , I am beyond frustrated w/ frank and the NET’S Mgmt for keeping him….I just cannot comprehend Why , Why any team would keep him as the coach this long …????

  11. kevin Says:

    We have 6 rotation players out and people want Frank out of here? How is he suppose to win with what he has? I mean its ok if we had a full team, but half our team is out. Kinda harsh to me.

  12. pinetar Says:

    @ VC3

    Yes! LLLLLL Frank

  13. Ispartan Says:

    The flu is very contagious, the rest of the team is probably already infected. If you are going to the game Saturday, wear your Nets gear, you might get to play.

  14. biggie Says:

    Look at the Bulls. Taj Gibson is getting the nods over Brad Miller and Tyrus Thomas. Why? He earned it. There is absolutely no reason why Courtney Lee should’ve granted the right to start. That’s why Frank is a bad coach; the reward and punishment system has gotta be more consistent.

  15. Mike L Says:

    I am still worried that the Nets dont want to fire Frank because they don’t want to pay another salary in a lost season.

    Myself I don’t even know what I want. I would like to see the Nets win already but at the same time I am not really paying attention anymore and would like the nets to have 250 combos when we go to the lottery……

  16. Andrew Says:

    Why do we have to be the only team in the NBA without a victory yet?

  17. Andy Says:

    0-5…i can take this as long as we get a top 3 pick in the draft to have a shot at wall or favors.

  18. mr. omG Says:

    @ andrew

    Cuz we probably suck ????

    and we have Harris, dooling,jayes, yi and now CDR out with injuries of all types

  19. mr. omG Says:

    who are we going to play that at least get some scoring ?

    Lopez
    Boone
    Twill
    Lee
    Alston

    Swat
    Najera
    Simmons (omG with this one)
    Hassell (i mean, we need someone)
    ???

    We are screwed anyway!!!

    0-6 and counting. 0-82 here we go!

  20. mr. omG Says:

    but luckily i can bet my money safe on 76ers since they will own the nets with a margin over 15.

    Final score 125-79

  21. DREAM TEAM Says:

    Devin Harris-PG
    Courtney Lee-SG
    LeBron James-SF
    Chris Bosh-PF
    Brook Lopez-C

    J.J. Barea backup PG
    CDR / TWill backing up SG/SF
    Motiejunas / Yi backing up PF
    Dooling/Hayes offensive threats off the bench
    Harpring/Salmons “bench scrubs”
    Okur – backup Center

    Not enough cash to do all this? Drop Bosh and do something w/ the Yi/Okur/Motiejunas combination.

    That team has teh chance to put up many championships

  22. Oh Really? Yes...Really! Says:

    @ mr. omG…switch Najera annd Boone…

    Lopez Boone
    Najera Swat
    Twill Simmons
    Lee Hassel
    Alston

    Oh….wait…..that still horrific. A bloodbath.

  23. matt Says:

    wow u know what i just noticed. we are officialy worst team in nba. we r only team without win….. nets suck and we need to get healthy, maybe espn writers were right

  24. KJV Says:

    Kevin, with all due respect, i think you should stop with the excuses for Frank. I mean…you make it sound like this is the first time he was not able to have a winning season.

    Hey, will you come out and talk about how wrong you were when our players return and you continue to see loses?

  25. jarkid Says:

    @KJV

    you are 100% right.

  26. fplc Says:

    Both NETS and FANS like to live in the dream, Somnambulism:

    Devin Harris-PG
    Courtney Lee-SG
    LeBron James-SF
    Chris Bosh-PF
    Brook Lopez-C

    If NETS keep playing like this, no players dare to join NETS. Probably DH and BL prefer to escape from NETS: a no motivation group (NOT team), a Group playing for lost purposely.

  27. Mr. Dollar Bills Says:

    CDR is out???

    27 point loss at best

    and LMAO!!! @ Bosh or Lebron joining a team that may only win 16 games!!!!

    This plan has blown up in the Nets faces!!! Even if Brooklyn goes through, the Nets will not land any big name FA’s

    the dream is dead, the plan is a failure.

  28. big daddy phil Says:

    The Nets need to make some trades now before its too late or sign some undrafted free agents with potential….they’ll play with some fire and desire not like freakin lee going 0-7 in the 1Q smh….last year the warriors offered us marco belinelli- THE ITALIAN SHARPSHOOTER for josh boone. And we said no. Thnk you kiki.

  29. Oh Really??..Yes, Really!! Says:

    @KJV and jarkid

    you are all right about Frank – it’s just that you MUST criticize players as well for lack of results. Acting like Phil Jackson (who’s never coached a bunch of has-beens, never-will-be(s), and we hope will-be(s)) would make this roster a playoff team is hilarious. Yeah Frank is a bad coach, he’ll be gone soon enough. What about talent on the roster instead of infatuations with whoever wears the uni?? You better get some of that in here, no matter who the coach is. An already known good coach would not step foot onto this team – because the lack of talent would ruin their career. By the way who will the coach be?

  30. Mike Says:

    If and when Proky gets ownership of the team, you will not have to worry about getting a coach. Money talks and big money shouts. As for talent, we have very talented players. Don’t let the rough start from Lopez, Lee, and injuries to Harris and Yi fool you. These four players plus CDR and T-Will
    are a very nice core to build around. Plus the draft picks and FA agent options. Nothing but blue sky ahead…

  31. KJV Says:

    @ Oh Really??
    Listen, really? Oh really? L Frank had Carter, Kidd, and Jefferson. What did he win with them? 34 games. 34 games.

  32. netsnuts Says:

    You have to admit, it is tough to take your eyes off this train wreck. Are Nets doing this on purpose to get the 2010 #1. They don’t have to try this hard. Is there a special exception in the lottery for teams that lose 82. Does it get us extra ping pong balls?
    What about Celtics on Sat? Most lopsided game in NBA history? Will Celtics get 125? Will Nets get 50?

  33. Jim Says:

    The Celtics held the Bobcats to 59 points.
    The Bobcats held the Nets to 68 points.

    It is possible that Saturday’s game WILL be the most lopsided game in NBA history. We MIGHT not break 50 points. The final score could very well be 116-47.

    13 points in the first quarter
    8 points in the second quarter
    12 points in the third quarter
    14 points in the 4th quarter

  34. mr. omG Says:

    sigh 0-6 0-6 0-6 0-6 0-6

    and at season’s end 0-82

    btw I read that franks wont leave soon, so said thorn, we are screwed up hard

  35. Andrés Says:

    OMG, Opie is starting Hassell instead of TWill! Fire Frank already!

  36. austin Says:

    Ive been a Frank supporter but starting hassel is ridiculous. I understand Twill is now the backup pg but seriously, play your best players. This is ridiculous. Frie Frank already.

  37. jose_rizal Says:

    josh boone just made two midrange jumpshots in the first quarter! Niiiiice.

  38. Andrés Says:

    Josh should start, it’s a good thing that Najera got in foul trouble early in the game.

  39. jose_rizal Says:

    iguodala hammered a dunk over twill. that was sick.

  40. Andy Says:

    Im tired of seeing simmons and najara out there. I’m starting to feel some hatred towards Frank!

  41. jose_rizal Says:

    oh god here we go… it’s halftime, a close game… i think we know what’s next.

  42. Andrew Says:

    we’re actually doing pretty good for now

  43. petersages Says:

    Without CDR, the team play better. Lopez can get more ball. Keep on teamwork. GO NETS!!!!

  44. jose_rizal Says:

    someone PLEASE guard Kapono

  45. Andrew Says:

    down by one…. even if we lose this game its obviously gonna suck but at least we played hard

  46. mr. omG Says:

    oh God down by 2, 21 secs left……….

    i can bear to wacht!!!!!!!!!! Simmons got 12, Hassell 17-11 wow no way we can loose

    Cmon……… at the buuzer, for the win………!!!!!!!!!!!

  47. mr. omG Says:

    **cant bear to wacht**

  48. mr. omG Says:

    down by 3……… 11 secs left oh Gooooooooooooooooooood!!!

  49. jose_rizal Says:

    sucks that trenton hassel missed those 2 crucial free throws with sixers up by 3

  50. Andrew Says:

    T Will got fouled thats some bull lol

  51. Andrew Says:

    Nets lose again but at least we did good, and T-Will got fouled by the way

  52. justin Says:

    trenton thanks alott for missing free throw s and lopez come on im crying right nowww

  53. mr. omG Says:

    at the bozer for the win……….. (whistle)

    btw Outstanding game by hassell. 1st time in a long while simmons got 10 and another nice game by najera. 9….

  54. mr. omG Says:
