Primo!
Certo la prima sfida d'inizio topic contro i Cavs...interessante verificare se Brook attaccherà zio Shaquille, o se si prenderà i jumper dalla media. Capitolo LeBron, mi aspetto un 40ello facile stanotte, non vedo proprio chi possa limitarlo.
Jason ma hai notizie sul cinese? Sono due settimane che si scrive "rientra la prossima", ma ora sono giorni che non se ne parla proprio.

Riguardo Wall, non credete che sia un ruolo già coperto?
Devin Harris ottimo giocatore con un ottimo contratto, nessuno lo mette in dubbio. Ma se John Wall continua così durante la stagione e i Nets guadagnano il top pick, secondo te quanti MILLISECONDI ci pensa Rod Thorn prima di cederlo?

The Nets announced Tuesday morning that Yi Jianlian had the stitches removed from his upper lip on Monday and will be able to participate in non-contact drills this week. He can practice fully next Monday and is expected to make his return next Wednesday (Dec. 23) against the Timberwolves.

Preview (from Espn):
After a shaky start at home, the Cleveland Cavaliers have looked as dominant as ever lately. Their visitors Tuesday aren't likely to change that trend.
The lowly New Jersey Nets have begun their road trip with two blowout losses, and face a tough task to avoid finishing it with a third against LeBron James and the Cavs.
Cleveland, which went 39-2 at home last season, looked surprisingly vulnerable in losses to Boston and Chicago during its first four home games.
Those problems have disappeared as the Cavs (17-7) have won seven straight at home over the last month, shooting 52.7 percent from the field in those games. James has gotten his teammates involved with an average of 10.0 assists in that stretch, along with a relatively modest 25.3 points.
After beating Portland 104-99 in their most recent home game, the Cavs won 102-89 at Oklahoma City on Sunday. They were buoyed by a fourth-quarter half-court shot from Mo Williams, who fired in desperation as the shot clock expired.
The biggest factor was still James, who scored a season-high 44 points and was 5 of 8 from 3-point range.
"It's tough to guard a guy who's that quick, that strong, that's making shots that deep," Oklahoma City's Jeff Green said. "He's one of the top players in the NBA. He turned it on when his team needed it the most."
James is trying to lead the Cavs back to the NBA finals after they fell short the last two seasons, but the team has slipped behind Boston, Orlando and Atlanta in the race for the top spot in the Eastern Conference.
The Nets (2-22) are simply trying to save face in the wake of their historically bad start, as they became the first team in NBA history to open the season with 18 consecutive losses. They finally beat Charlotte on Dec. 4 and earned their first road win at Chicago last Tuesday, but their problems have resurfaced on this road trip.
After shooting 36.3 percent in a 107-91 loss at Indiana on Friday, New Jersey allowed a season high in points to the Hawks, who shot 11 of 17 from 3-point range during a 130-107 win over the Nets on Sunday.
"We were hanging tough with a top-four team in the East, pretty much for -- what fraction should I say? -- five-eighths of the game?" New Jersey center Brook Lopez said. "That's correct, right? So, we were in there. It just kind of fell out from under us offensively and defensively the beginning of the third quarter. I'm sure it's tough writing about us."
Lopez has been one of the few bright spots for New Jersey, ranking fifth in the NBA with 13 double-doubles. Another emerging contributor is Chris Douglas-Roberts, who is averaging 16.2 points but missed Sunday's game with a knee problem. It's unclear if he'll play Tuesday.
The Nets' woeful offense certainly doesn't need any more challenges, as the team ranks last in the league in points per game (89.3) and field goal percentage (41.5).
New Jersey has averaged 85.0 points during a four-game losing streak to the Cavs. This is the first of four meetings this season.

Quasi finito il primo tempo a Cleveland...probabilmente (anzi sicuramente) perderemo questa partita...ma rimango sempre più impressionato dall'intelligenza di Brook Lopez. 18 punti e 8 rimbalzi con 3.15 sul cronometro (contro Shaq)...ma oltre a questo sta dimostrando sempre più che questa ora è la sua squadra e che centri così in NBA già ora ce ne son pochi.
Lebron l'avrà sicuramente notato..spero se ne ricordi quando a Luglio dovrà prendere la decisione che aspettiamo tutti

Grande grande giocatore che sta maturando costantemente.... chiude con 22 punti e 15 rimbalzi
Se non sbaglio ho letto da qualche parte che il nuovo owner dovrebbe cacciare 7.5 M per portare i Nets a Newark per due anni (aspettando Brooklyn)..dato che il trasferimento porterebbe sicuramente frutti e più attrattiva...e che il russo è di manica larga non penso ci dovrebbero essere problemi.

Due belle notizie:
I Nets giocheranno ufficialmente a Newark dalla prossima stagione...prendo da netsdaily.com
Wednesday, it was reported a deal to put the Nets in Newark had all but collapsed. Now, Mayor Cory Booker says he’s “very confident” things will work out: “We are in a very strong position. I actually believe the Nets will be playing here very soon.” Booker didn’t detail the reasons behind his confidence. The NJSEA had been willing to let the Nets out of their lease without penalty, then reneged.
E la NBA ha ufficializzato anche l'acquisto di Prokhorov:
The victories on court are few and far between. The victories off court are piling up. David Stern said Thursday Mikhail Prokhorov has survived the NBA’s background check. “There was nothing that was disclosed that would cause us not to move forward with his application,” said Stern. Next up: an investigation of his financial status. That should be no problem. The NBA is expected to vote on Nets’ transfter next month.

Esatto soprattutto perchè comunque sarebbe un assett molto appettibile sul mercato e quindi con molte richieste.
