Game Thread: Brooklyn Nets at Toronto Raptors Thread

[MHSL82]

This thread is for all game threads, articles, videos, comments, etc. on the Brooklyn Nets at Toronto Raptors series. I doubt there will be enough discussion in any one game to warrant individual games. This website has a timestamp, so it'll be easy to tell what game we're talking about.

Bump.

Brooklyn - Toronto:

If Lopez was healthy, I'd pick them. But don't think they have enough.

I'm not even sure what it is about Toronto that would cause problems for Brooklyn, but I assume their overall play (lots of different players) will cause problems.

Toronto in 5.

Also, I thought last year, the Nets PA played too much music during live play. I think it will be just as annoying this year.

Crowd chanting "Nets you suck" I think.

I look forward to Valanciunas. Utah should have taken him over Kanter, I said that during the draft.

 

[nuraman00]

Wow. I underestimated how much the Lowry vs. Williams matchup will be. I didn't think about Lowry, but he is good.

Let's go Lowry.

Livingston to Deron for 3.

There are girls wearing some sort of red and silver confetti hair.

Oops, I just realized I wasn't DVRing this game. If I was, I would have taken a pic.

Normally I DVR every playoffs game, I must have forgotten.

I just saw a courtside Toronto fan wearing a hat that said "The Finals". Weird, I didn't know they made hats for the NBA Finals.

And why is a Toronto fan wearing that?

Vazquez goes around a curl screen, then dishes it to Patterson for 3.

There are a parade of people standing outside the arena, and following the game! This is why I love Raptors fans.

He averages a lot of assists, doesn't he. If so, I wish we had him, too.

No, only 0.7 assists.

These are his stats, though:

I think that I'm thinking about the player from New Orleans? He start with a V, too. I'll figure it out.

Greveiz Vazquez played for the New Orleans Hornets last year.

He wasn't that good this year. But last year, he was.

Patterson hits a 3, then dunks on the next play.

Thanks. I wish for a 10+ assist man, hope for a 9 assist PG, want an 8 assist guy, and expect a 7 assist man at the point. I hope for big but expect little. I did like how Burke ended the year.

 

[nuraman00]

Vazquez for 3. 75-76.

With how Vazquez played this year, I'd rather have Burke than him. I think Burke can be a better overall player than Vazquez.

Back to Valanciunas though, he's quicker than Kanter, and a better shot blocker. IMO.
