Teague just drags our team down.

We had a numbers break with Wiggs on his left and Jimmy on his right with Kat trailing. So what does Teague do? Dribbles in a circle then retreats back to the 3 point t line until all the nets get back.

Dieng was a +10 while Towns was a +2.

The starters collectively struggled to end the half. I really like Jones, but I think this is an example of cherrypicking a stat to support a point.

Towns coming alive

I'm not a great Nik Stauskus mind but I don't think I've ever seen him hit a shot. What happened to his jump shot, it's ugly.

Uhh... Brooklyn's leading scorer tonight with 15 and 3-6 from deep. Must not be that ugly of a shot.

And they're using him as a primary ball-handler, which is interesting.

I watch the Nets a lot. They'd be 5 games better than they are if they ever got the benefit of a call.

The culture Kenny Atkinson and Sean Marks are building is healthy and conducive for success down the road.

I was mostly trolling with that comment, i thought I'd get a nibble

Game ball to Tyus...honorable mention to Wiggins

100% agreed. I love practically all the moves they've made as an organization, from buying low on big time talents (D'Angelo Russell, Jahlil Okafor) to using their cap space to acquire assets (DeMarre Carroll AND a first-round pick) and their ability to find and develop hidden gems (Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Spencer Dinwiddie, Joe Harris).

Wiggins keeps making winning plays. He's definitely been getting better position and making a conscious effort to get to the hoop.
