“Obviously No. 6 in the bigger picture is a lot bigger than this win in Brooklyn in December, but when you’re out there you don’t think about that”. That summer they made another move that hurt them in the long-term by trading for Joe Johnson (a good player but who had a millstone of a contract that prevented the Nets from having salary cap space for the next three seasons) to again convince Williams to re-sign.

Even though the Nets lost this one to the Mavericks, this was a game they could build upon. The Nets weren’t shooting at that clip – Lionel Hollins said he’s never seen a team shoot 77% on threes in a half – but they knocked down 49% (23-of-47), enough to keep them in the game, down 64-53 at the half.

“Yeah. I think the way I played was disappointing for fans”. I had some very tough shots. His impact on the game will be felt for years to come. “The names he’s passed and continues to creep up on are the greatest players in the history of our game, but that’s part of the process of greatness”.
The road team has won eight of the last nine meetings.
So what do the Nets do out of the timeout in desperate times?
