Nets are without Lin, aren't they?
And their rookie PG is hurt or something (Whitehead?)


I think Knicks win.

Home court + Injuries.

Yep, both out. Could be right especially with this being a back to back, but this team is playing well together. First Nets team in what feels like a decade that seems to really believe in itself and shows consistent defensive grit under Atkinson. There is a talent gap between the two teams, but there's also a gap in terms of how well the guys fit imo.

Knicks with the rebound victory after Jazz debacle.

...but the Nets don't look so bad lately. I see effort.

That's exactly what it is. They're FINALLY watchable again, and since I'm just used to watching this team lose, that's all I can really ask for. First time since the NJ days where it actually feels like they are a fun team again.

I think it's no mistake that it's happening without Lin. My problem with him is his ball hogging. It would be good if NYC had both teams going well... they both need so much work.

That they do... seems like both teams are never good at the same time. We got the one first-round series together right after you guy got Marbury but other than that we seem to either both suck, or only one team is good.

I think both teams made the playoffs in the same year maybe twice since 2000, and it really has the potential to be one of the most heated same-state rivalries in all of sports if we changed that. In the regular season it's pretty entertaining as is, could only imagine if the games were relevant.

Kenny Atkinson is an amazing rookie coach, dude has this band of no names playing inspired ball. I wish they can pick up some good talent in FA, wanna see what he could do with a legit roster.

Sasha Vujacic could be a huge piece of the bench. especially on defense. he has loads of experience

Both, Kuzminskas and Hernangomez should get more minutes.
