Burned During Reentry
Are you kidding? What a pathetic showing against the Rockets tonight, only managing a complete confidence breakdown against the big bad Rockets, who have now won 19 straight games.
The Nets shot 3 - 16 in the second quarter, scored a total of 13 points, and found themselves down 41 - 28 at the half. They were done.
For the Nets, well, you'd have to look long and hard to find an offense as pathetic (perhaps the Kidd-is-injured, let's trade Kenyon Martin and fill the roster with replacement Nets of 2005) as the one we are witnessing post Kidd. No energy, no fire, no matching the intensity of the now 19-in-a-row Rockets. They cannot get into the paint without looking like stumblebumbs, they can't seem to make an outside shot, their best player (?) Vince Carter can't decide whether to self-destruct on the perimeter or on his way into the paint, and they are getting nothing of substance from a defense that appears unable to stop even the basics of offense.
Ooh, it's bad. At 26 - 38, with Cleveland and Utah coming, it ain't getting better anytime soon, by the way.
I'll get a game review up, but I don't even know if this one merits a full write up, that's how disgusted I am with the whole season. Yeah, RJ, you can still get on a run and make the playoffs.
