P.J. Carlesimo's rotations have been baffling to many. Beat writers noted how he had benched his lone All-Star in three of the last four games before last night. Last night, they engaged fans who questioned other aspects of his coaching.
The Hornets made it interesting late, but Deron Williams (33 points) and Brook Lopez (20 points) carried the Nets to victory, 101-97. It didn't need to be this close, but, well, it was.
After losing a close one to the Grizzlies at home, the Nets took it easy Monday, watching tape and shooting around ate PNY Center before headed to New Orleans.
The loss was frustrating, with what sure looked like blown calls and some mystifying on-court combinations, but six rotation players reportedly gave the media the cold shoulder Sunday night, leaving the locker room before media was permitted inside.
The Nets go down in a defensive struggle.
MarShon Brooks wasn't mincing words with Stefan Bondy before Friday night's game vs. the Rockets. He told Bondy that he still thinks he can a big-time scorer in the NBA, that he doesn't really care where he plays as long as he gets more opportunities
It was a rather disappointing loss for the Nets as they took on a Rockets team who got all they ever could have imagined from Carlos Delfino. Without Joe Johnson, the Nets just couldn't close the 4th quarter gap, falling to Houston 106-96.
The Nets erase a 14 point 2nd half deficit to beat Bucks for the second straight night.
