Game #25: Brooklyn Nets (13-11) @ New York Knicks (18-6)

Well it's 3pm or so, will Melo go or no?

[NYKGuY]

He's going to be a GTD Rob. So most likely it will be determined during shoot around before the game.

I have a good feeling we'll win this one...

.....but if we don't win, will this be another meaningless loss in the grand scheme of things?

Can't lose to the nets we will here the **** from the net fans

[Cromedome]

Copeland and White are back. No worries, lol.

That would suck but maybe it will turn out like the Heat game. No Melo and we crushed them. That would make the victory 100x sweeter and certain Net fans on PSD would probably jump off the Brooklyn Bridge. Fuhgeddaboudit!!!

I think Melo will play tonight. I hate Brooklyn and their fans so much. This win would be oh so sweet.

I don't know if you did this intentionally but I think it's an accurate terminology. It seems like most of these new "fans" are fans of Brooklyn rather than the actual team. Where were all these fans when they were in New Jersey?

Nets record vs Knicks record..

All the idiots who thought the Nets would be superior..

Looks official now.

Steve Novak is out with flu symptoms.

[NYSpirit1]

Novak is out. We're going to be completely screwed if Melo is out. Completely.

You'll have Chandler, Felton, Kidd, Brewer and Smith as the ONLY regular rotation guys on a healthy roster with Prigioni, White, Copeland and Thomas filling in. 9 guys.

Melo, Amare, Shumpert, Wallace, Camby, Novak out? This could get real ugly.

Melo needs to man up and play. And him, Chandler, Felton are going to need to play 40 minutes. You can't be relying on James White, Kurt Thomas and even Copeland for any extended period.

I love 7pm weekday games

Novak is out?
Copeland to the rescue. I really hope he can maintain decent shooting from the outside.

Melo needs to get Healthy.
You don't have seem to have much faith in this team's depth. Tonight, is as good as any to test it. A home game against a rival team.
