VC redeeming himself in his true form, Vinsanity.

But Peja was out, I don't know if this game means any significants...or is he out the whole series?

Nice game, but I didn't get why they put the technical on Danny Granger in the 4th. What was that for?

What do you think? I kinda agree, you don't see the Nets opposing shots and being defensive like other so called "title contenders".

Job for them to get done in the offseason, find a good defender.

I guess its pretty accurate, considering he don't get to the line nearly enough...I hope VC reads it and get motivated.

If they lose to the Pacers in this series everyone's going to go crazy talking about it next season, about "The Nets That Choked". Isn't there still hope that they might get Tim Thomas in the offseason? That would help a ton.

Well, the two games that we won were againts a pejaless Pacers team. I don't know if I'm proud or not, but VC was clutch again!!!! Take over when the Pacers made that run. I think he had a playoff career high will 6 steals, and no torunovers again. He did not only scored during the end, he made couple of key passeds to Krstic who made the shot.

But Kidd have been struggerling with his shot for many games now. I don't know if he keep this up, we would still win.

This is it yalll. If we win this game, we should go on to round 2 and get our revenge from the Heat.

Keys:
Kidd get back on track. Shoot the ball better.
VC be the VC of game 4, meaning 2 3s and go to the line.
RJ needs to get more shots and go to the line.
Krstic needs to provide his ususally 18+ points.
Stop JO!!!!!!!!

If the Nets advance right now they're pretty much guaranteed to go to the Eastern Finals.

Pretty much guaranteed?? How can you possibly say that? The Heat-Bulls series is tied at 2-2, and I wouldn't "pretty much guarantee" a victory over either of those teams...

The Nets so far have been phenomenal against the Heat in the regular season, and the team looks like it's coming apart now so it might be even more likely that the Nets can get to the Finals. I'm not trying to act like a biased fan I'm just saying the way their season series looked and how the teams look right now favors the Nets.

Vince Carter took over once again!!! Been on fire for the first 2 quaters, the missed a few shots in the early 4th, and then vinsanity unleash. We keep JO under control. Kidd doing his thing, Jefferson backing Vince perfectly. And Krstic continued his ususal 18+ points.. And Vince's near triple double with 34 points 15(yea, you heard right) rebounds, and 7 assist.
