I have no complaints this half!

Yep. Great first half. Iman looks great and it is nice to have Pablo playing regular minutes to start the season.

We never play well vs the Bulls. If we win it will be very ugly.

Nah, I think it's Vitamin Water. Fiddy Cent is in attendance.

I think it's crack from the Smith brothers. Now we know why Chris Smith was kept

I think the two point guard line up could give them fits. They are starting Butler at the 2 and Deng at the three. It will be interesting. Woodson might also break out his 'big' line up.

Pleased so far. Got past some early gitters and had a nice half, esp. Defensively. Clyde said it best -- get these guys down and keep em down. Rest the starters for tomorrow in chicago.

officially concerned with bargnani. He's just off big-time. Not comfortable at all. I just hope this crowd gives him more time -- you can tell they're ready to jump all over him for the poor play thusfar...just gove effort--that's all we can ask for at this point. Hope it starts clicking for him soon. At least we know he capable of much better play. Gotta be patient.

Nets down 7 in the 4th to the cavs btw

I'm not worried yet because I see a guy moving around the floor well for a 7fter, grabbing rebounds, showing energy. The shot should come eventually, hope it does anyway.

think kidd was slowing us down last yr, this is the speed you play with when you play small ball..

We'll be playing our share of half court too. Depends on the matchup and our roster, who is available.

2 dunks in one game for Melo. Gotta be a record. He is in the best shape of his career

We MUST avoid the dreaded 3rd quarter slump. If we do that we can rest the starters.

That's because Woodson was starting brewer, Kidd and James white 1st & 3rd quarters

That Chandler jumper didn't look like a "600 shots per day" jumper.

Nice block for Chandler.

You could make a pretty good case that he had to start Brewer and Kidd. Knicks went 18-5 with Brewer to start and he was the poster child for Hopla praise. Not sure where the White reference is coming from. The guy hardly ever started.

Was that his 2nd make? The 1st one was fluid. It was actually a jumpshot. Not flat footed like most big men shoot
