[Anthony15]

I can't beleive u lose, its so easy to win even on superstar!

[Speedy Gonzales]

Agh,what can I say,I'm was having problems with Carters three point shooting,just couldn't find the grip,so I changed his three point shooting to 70 insteed of 75,now I am in a groove,too bad some of the other teams are to

[Anthony15]

try to trade carter and kidd for yao and mcgrady, i think that'll help u in the back court!

[Speedy Gonzales]

Thanks for the idea,but the rj,vinsanity,kidd trio isn't going anywhere,and besides,I don't like "t-mac".No,no,I'm keeping my trio.

[Anthony15]

lol but u should at least trade jefferson to have a better backcourt!Right now ur backcourt is horrible!

[Speedy Gonzales]

Well,I kinda like it so,i'm sticking with it,but again,thanks for the tips

[futzy99]

Backcourt is horrible? Kidd and Carter? And how would Yao help his backcourt? Yao plays center. And how could you get much better than two of the best in their positions at PG and SG? Also, how does Jefferson relate to the backcourt?

-JKidd

[AlwaysWhat,NeverWhy]

And how would Yao help his backcourt?

he meant frontcourt, you know that. Don't give him any more beef over a mistake, futzy...

[futzy99]

And how would Yao help his backcourt?

he meant frontcourt, you know that. Don't give him any more beef over a mistake, futzy...

Oh. Err, I didn't really know that. I thought since he said to get rid of Kidd and VC, he was actually talking about the back court. I just thought he was makign a dumb comment. I didn't get that it was a mistake.

Sorry for that, I didn't realize it was a mistake.

-JKidd

[Anthony15]

yeah i meant front court, sry..bit sleepy today!

[Speedy Gonzales]

Seven games played in december.On a for game winning streak:



Released Anthony Peeler,signed J.R. Bremer on 14. of december,so this is the current look of my roster:



The last game I played was against the Heat and this is a brief recap-in pictures:


Carter was hipped from the start


But the diesel wasn't going to stop


The heat made some points from fast brakes


At the half Carter already had 22 points,Miami led 46-38:


And than The Nets cought fire:





And won,I held the Heat to 7 points in the third quarter,here's the recap:

That's all for now,hope you like the photos,I enjoyed making them
Until next time,ciao.

[futzy99]

2 things: You said the score was tied 37-37 at the half, but the box score says otherwise.

Did Krstic miss that dunk? Because he had no points...

-JKidd

[$Chris Bosh$]

nice lineup with nene there

[Speedy Gonzales]

My bed,you see, I played that game two times,each time i won but the first time i didn't save the game,so krstic's dunk must be from the 1. game,thanks for noticing,I'll correct it now.
But nice to see somebody actually reads what I write.

December 17: Nets@Nuggets
Nene was playing against his old team for the first time,but wasn't a factor.K-Mart wasn't playing:

so the Nets got 12 offensive boards.
It was just a regular win for the Nets.

Box score:



December 18: Nets@Knicks
This was a huge come back win,RJ exploded in the fourth for 20 points and got the win for the Nets.

Player of the game:



Box score:



December 20:Nets@Pistons
Big Ben's Pistons steam rolled over the Nets to hand the Nets the biggest defeat of the season.

Big Ben and Sheed stopped Nets inside scoring game and the Nets just couldn't respond.



Box score:



December 21:

Big trade:


The Nets got 2 great young players which will play for the Nets for many years.Antonio Davis is good help in the paint and his 13 M contract runs out at the end of the season. Kidd played well for this franchise but,the Nets have to look into the future.

[Speedy Gonzales]

December 23:Nets@Knicks
The Nets are playing the first game since the trade against the Knicks,but first the current roster:


Now,onto the game:
How will the new Nets play? Well,nice to see some things didn't change:


Tyson Chandler taking it to the basket:


In the and the Nets managed to win:


The mayor defference bitween Kidd and Hinrich is that Kidd can steal the ball much better,I'll have to adjust to not having ten fast break points off of his steals.

Next game:December 25. Nets@Jazz

[Speedy Gonzales]

December 25:Nets@Jazz

The Nets had the lead late in the 4. quarter,but the Jazz managed to turn things around and come away with the win. It was a tough game in which better Jazz defence managed to cool the Nets from the field.


Injury report:

Estimated time of recovery:9 days

Next game:December 26:Nets@Bobcats.

[Speedy Gonzales]

December 26:Nets@Bobcats
The Nets were in control of the game during first three quarters,but failed to come away with the win.Bobcats shut down the Nets in the forth and won in a tight game.This was the second game that the Nets lost in a very similar way,controling first three quarters and than losing the lead in the fourth.

Here are a couple of first quarter dunks:


Half time report:


And the boxscores:


December 29:Nets@Heat
The road weary Nets were trying to bounce back from losing two games,and what better team to do it against then the Heat.Players on the team were getting worried cause with Kidd gone in the trade they were forced to change team strategy and there was a question who is going to be their go-to guy.This game,a very unexpected player steped up and played his best game of the season,it was Jerome James,he completlly shut down the Diesel on the offensive end and managed to chip in 14 points,grabed 8 rebs and blocked 7 shots!The Nets won by 19 points,it was a result of great team effort.Jerome James was the player of the game.

Here is the photo of the game:


Half time report:



And here is the boxscore:




Next game:December 31:Nets@Grizzlies.

[John WB]

A lot of pics. You might want to resize them before you go any further.

[Speedy Gonzales]

December 31: Nets@Grizzlies
This wasn't a pretty game,a lot of defence and a loss for the Nets.
Here is one of few dunks of the night:


Half time report:


Boxscores:


Played all games in december:


Next game:January 2:Clippers@Nets

[Speedy Gonzales]

January 2:Clippers@Nets
January is ahead of the Nets and the first game was in LA against the Clippers.Carter had 18 points and Korver had 18 coming of the bench,Jerome James ended up with 12 rebs.It was a bad shooting night from three point range,managed to shoot 3-22 and all 3 scored Korver.Carter was player of the game.Here are two dunks from the game:



Box score:


January 4:Orlando@Nets
This game was very hard to play and try not to put my fist into the screen,Steve Francis and Hedo Turkoglu killed any chance I had to win,they just kept scoring,if it wasn't Francis,Turkoglu would put some points on the board,very frustrating.Player of the game: Steve Francis.Anyway,here's the halftime report:



Box score:


January 8:76ers@Nets
Everybody expected Iverson and Carter to leed their teams in points category,but Kirk Hinrich started the game great and by half time had 12 points,the Nets won easily and never trailed.Player of the game Kirk Hinrich.



Box score:


January 9:Blazers@Nets
This was a close game which the Nets won by a point.It took a double-double from Nene to win the game,he was the player of the game with 12 points,10 rebs and 3 blocks.Not too many dunks so no photos.Player of the game: Nene.



Boxscore:


January 11:Nets@Rockets
This was a good team win,Nets played good defence and after a slow start managed to get a win.Nene was playing well in the first half,but in the second,RJ took over and finished the game with 27 points,2 assists,2 rebs and a steal and was named player of the game:



Player of the game:


Box score:


Next game:January 13:Nets@Pacers

[Speedy Gonzales]

January 13:Nets@Pacers
The Nets were trying to extend their wining streak to four games,but instead they got their buts kicked The reason of this poor result is Nets bad second quarter in which Indiana outscored the Nets for 11 points.O'Neal had 16 points in first half,just couldn't stop him,tried double team and all,but he just kept scoring


Not to much highlight dunks,very good defence from the Pacers.


Box score:


Second quarter is the key quarter for the Nets,if they manage to survive second quarter,they usually win.

January 16:

Lopez will fill the place of third PG for the Nets.

January 18:Wolves@Nets
Nets come out ready to forget the loss to the Pacers.That was not what the Wolves had in mind though,they played good in the first half and led by 5 at halftime.


That's when RJ and VC, Nets dinamic duo took the game in their hands.They were knocking down shoots and Nene provided defence from the bench:



And the Nets won!
Box score:


January 19:Nets@Magic
The Nets were playing against a team that stomped over them earlier this month.It will not happen again!Nets were leading throughout the game,but almost lost the lead in the 4.Thats when Nene saved the Nets scoring 12 of his 14 points in the last 5 minutes of the game.He was named player of the game.


Play of the game:Korver in the counter attack,runs to the three point line,all alone,gets up and sinks the shoot.


Box score:


January 21:Cavs@Nets
VC and RJ against King James!
The Nets tried,but fell short,4 of Cavs starters were in double scoring digits.Vince and Richard together scored just 23 points.


Box score:


January 24:Nuggets@Nets
Nets got a good performance from Krstic who scored 14 points and grabbed 9 rebs,which along with Carter's 25 and RJ's 12 points, proved to be good enough for a win over the Nuggets:


Box score:


January 25:Bucks@Nets
Vince Carter was red hot,chiping in 40 points in a 76-71 win over the Bucks.The Nets never trailed carried by Carter.


Player of the game,Vince Carter flying to the bucket on the counter attack:


Box score:


Next game:January 27:Nets@Sonics

[Speedy Gonzales]

January 27:Nets@Sonics
Nets come,Nets saw,Nets conquered,it was a routine win for the Nets,led from start to finish,although third quarter was a bit of a bumpy ride.


Box score:


January 29:Nets@Spurs
Nets come,Nets got their buts kicked,Nets left with a bad taste of defeat in their mouths.Parker was the player of the game with 30 points.The Nets just couldn't find a way to stop Parker's penetrations.


Box score:


January 31:Nets@76ers
Nets had a strong start and had no problem with winning against the 76ers,the tactic was to get Webber into foul trouble so that Nets penetration plays don't hit a wall.The tactic worked,cause a ton of points came from dunks and layups.

Box score:


With the win over Philadelphia the Nets played all the games in January :


Team roster:


Next game:February 4:Lakers@Nets
