D'oh!

Cavs were watching on as LeBron passed the ball to Marshall in the final seconds. I fell asleep with about 2 minutes in the 4th quarter so I missed this much debated ending that a lot of people are analyzing.

"If you don't like Jason Kidd, you don't like basketball."

Those were the sage words of Charles Barkley last night
after the Nets won (still trailing 3-2). I couldn't
watch the game last night (good thing because from what
i'm reading it was pretty ugly) but I caught the analysis
at the end and I have to say I like watching that Charles
Barkley - he doesn't mince words and says it like it is.

3-1. Ugh.

This is a great pic. Cavs pretty much plowed down the Nets.
Not fun to watch - especially those extended last seconds.
Nachbar and then Carter missing those last shots that
could have given us the win - so hard to watch! But Nets
had no chance against the Cavs defence.

Can I state for the record how much I can't stand that
uncoordinated, stumbling fool Varejao? He distracts the
entire game for me and perhaps that works on the court
but he's awful to watch. Maybe it's because he's so
dangerous .. last year he elbowed Nikos Zisis and
broke his face! Maybe it's just me, but Varejao is
like a little kid let loose with the pros, chasing
after all the balls, and flapping around. He really
fits his nickname of "The Wild Thing".

Nets serve more turnovers than a bakery!

Richard Jefferson on Jason Kidd's eight turnovers: "He still had 17, 10 and eight, he just threw in a couple turnovers. I would never take anything away from Cleveland and what they did. They're a good defensive team, but Jason Kidd is his own player. I don't think anyone can take him out of his game. Sometimes he might try to do things or things might not work. He's one of the most experimental players I ever played with so I wouldn't think their defense had too much of an effect."

Nets @ Raptors

I'm taking a break. The pet food, the politics, the final exams.
I have missed the last four Nets games due to the things above.
Tonight the Nets are 3-1 - if there's one game to watch it's this
one. Hopefully the Raptors fans won't succeed in doing this.
Pretty funny. About four more hours until I head to the local
watering hole.

Go Nets!
