Hold on baby!!

Credit to the Nets, their roster pales in comparison to the Sixers, and here they are giving them all they handle.

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 04:34 PM

Man why shoot with 18 left

**Chi_archie** · 04-20-19, 04:35 PM

dum fro

I needed OT

**eaglesfan371** · 04-20-19, 04:36 PM

Nets up Q1-Q3.

76ers come back mid Q4. As usual, only watch the final 6 mins of NBA.

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 04:37 PM

Why shoot with 18 why shoot with 8 left,why why gave away the cover with that

would you have preferred if the Nets had taken a shot with 18 secs left?

**7deuceoff$uit** · 04-20-19, 04:40 PM

Had the penetrating over. Was looking good at half. Alright at the end of 3, then both teams went cold for 3-4 min in the 4th and the refs didn't want to call fouls down the stretch.

**Goat Milk** · 04-20-19, 04:40 PM

Brooklyn a pussy type of team

**krk1030** · 04-20-19, 04:41 PM

Piss poor execution and the refs blowing 3 calls late didn't help.

Not sure. Could have given a call to Allen on that play, but he's just a pussy. Got the ball taken straight out of his hands. Brooklyn was lucky the 76ers 2nd best player got ejected, otherwise it wouldn't have come down to the wire. Execution was horrible like you said. How do you throw the ball out of bounds on an inbounds play with 50 seconds left. Brooklyn doesn't have any killers on their team.

76ers were down by 2 and they had the ball with 24 left, they should have played for the last shot not shot at 18, that was dumb they left the door wide open. Nets should have done the same thing at the end wait till last second make it break it, instead of that clown triple bounce pass in heavy traffic with 5 left.

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 04:52 PM

I had 2.5 3 and 3.5 on the nets, what a disaster

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 04:53 PM

there was 5 fouls by the 76ers when they stripped him at the end too, he got hacked 15 times when he got the ball taken away

Rough loss, but na man, you never play for the last shot when you're down. Never. You always gotta give yourself an opportunity to foul if you miss the shot, and live to play another possession.

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 04:57 PM

where they down at 24 seconds? but if so I agree but they need to setup a good scoring opportunity, really was just a bad break 4 was a stretch with the time left!

**USCPHILLYGUY** · 04-20-19, 04:59 PM

Why would u hold for last shot when down 1? If u miss you foul and have another possession to win or tie. Great execution down the stretch

Yep. Initial strip was clean but everything after was a foul

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 05:06 PM

I am curious now I am getting a little confused, I think you play for last shot if you score you win if you shoot right away you score and give up possession with a small lead, now down by 20 sure but down by 2 I think you play for the last shot, right or wrong?

I think both arguments make sense but it seems the consensus is to shoot and foul if necessary asap. seems to me you would play for the win but shooting seems to make more sense.

Things equal out. No way Embiid foul was a flagrant & Butler getting ejected bs. How do u turn the ball over after a timeout? Nets lucky to win 1 game here

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 05:11 PM

I did not care if they lost just by 2 would have been nice!

**danshan11** · 04-20-19, 05:19 PM

How about the circus acrobat inbound attempt and passes with a min left.

**packerd_00** · 04-20-19, 05:54 PM

Sucks for the Nets,they played a hell of a game. Not awhole lot of talent,to fall back on.

**Mr KLC** · 04-23-19, 01:38 PM

The Brooklyn Nets have lost three consecutive games since winning Game 1.

Since 2005, teams that have lost at least three straight games and are listed as an underdog in their next playoff game have gone 41-58-2 (41%) ATS.

**danshan11** · 04-23-19, 02:37 PM

and if they won their last 3 and are dogs in the current game they are, what does that mean?

53-129 (-7.32, 29.1%)
77-101-4 (-1.84, 43.3%)	avg line: 5.5
76-101-5 (-1.37, 42.9%)	avg total: 196.0

**bigtymer56** · 04-23-19, 02:50 PM

Hoping Joe Harris breaks out of his slump. Shot 47% from 3 this season.....0-10 in the 3 losses, and I swear 8 of them were wide open.
