Eddy Syet Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Here's an article written by Richard O'Connor http://northjersey.com/page.php?qstr=eXJpc...2Y3dnFlZUVFeXk2 some excerpts: Absorb this staggering line one more time: 19 assists, 16 rebounds, 16 points. Only Wilt Chamberlain and Fat Lever had ever cleared 15 in those three categories in a playoff game. "This so-called injury," Toronto coach Sam Mitchell said of Kidd's knee. "He was just unbelievable. He just dominated the basketball game. As good as Vince was, Jason Kidd still dictated everything." Kidd knew he could get scorched by Ford and Calderon, who combined for 39 points, so he figured out a way to neutralize the effect. Rebound like Rodman. Maneuver like Magic. Lead like Larry. :cool: "As a player," Kidd said, "I wish I could score more." There's really no need. In the twilight of his career, Jason Kidd likes his chances when it's his brain and eyes against your youth and speed. 'Nuff said! As a Kidd fan, I'm still fretting about the time when Duncan inched him for an MVP award... I believe there was injustice there when the NETS rolled to the NBA Finals (although falling short against the Lakers and the Spurs), and Kidd never took home a Podoloff trophy. Quote Link to comment

Shaq did acknowledge that Kidd should've been the MVP during that season that they met in the Finals. I know Shaq meant the Finals MVP but I think he was also trying to imply that J.Kidd should've been the regular season MVP as well. anyway, the Nets are slaughtering,butchering,killing,murdering the Toronto Raptors. wow. what a sight. 32-point game.

bullrakk Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 it's almost certain that it will be 3 - 1 at the end of today's game as the nets is leading by 30 pts. after the 3rd, kidd is 2 rebounds shy of another triple double, but i guess there's no use in fielding him back into the game with that enormous margin. anyway, the nets is peaking at the right time. i hope the team will continue to play well and win this year's championship.

bullrakk Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 i'm confident that the nets will wrap-up the series in game 5 Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 NETS blew RAPTORS away; take 3-1 Lead!!! http://www.nba.com/games/20070429/TORNJN/recap.html No trouble. No trouble at all. Jason Kidd had another stellar night as he compiled 17 pts 8 rebs 13 asts for another near-3D while sitting the entire 4th quarter. He is currently tied with Larry Bird at 2nd in career 3D's in the playoffs with 10. Well, with the way our fave player's playing, this tie can be broken any time soon. VC had 27 points to lead NJ while RJ chipped in 23. Andrea Bargnani led Toronto with 16 pts. Bosh had 13 pts 10 rebs but was held to 5-12 from the field. :evil: The biggest lead stood at 33 points. The NETS led all game except for the first 15 seconds of it. The NETS also made a franchise best 14 three-pointers with Vinsanity and Kidd making 5 triples each! Let's hope they wrap it up in Game 5. :cool: GO GO NETS!!! Quote Link to comment
clubber_lang Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 The Raptors just didn't resist at all. No fight whatsoever. It was not playoff basketball. Only the Nets showed up! I guess it's Nets-Cavs after Game 5... Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 A learning experience for the young Raptors! HeHe! Yeah, it's King James vs VC after Game 5! :evil: Quote Link to comment
clubber_lang Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Earlier, I posted that the Cavs would make quick work of either the Nets or the Raptors... After seeing JKidd resurrected and the Cavs struggling against the Wiz, I change my mind. The Nets would be a strong opponent. That matchup would be a tough one... Quote Link to comment
willow_boy Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Though I don't like him and have expressed it several times on this thread, I have to give Jason Collins some much-deserved credit for effectively shutting down Bosh's game. Bosh has not been much of a factor in this series. :cool: Even Jason's shooting percentage improved dramatically. As of Game 4, he was 7-of-7 from the field. Quote Link to comment

howard_the_duck Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I still think the Cavs can beat either the Raps or the Nets. The Raps are just that bad without my man Jorge. Quote Link to comment

Anyway, I don't believe our team's got the right mix for a champion team right now... let's see how Kidd, Carter, and Jefferson will fare... HeHe! Quote Link to comment
howard_the_duck Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 ^ Garbajosa, who injured his ankle(?) so bad, the opposing team's player looked away when he "inspected" the damage Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 NETS beat the RAPTORS 4-2!!! it's gonna be the NETS versus the CAVS in Round 2!!! GO NETS!!! Quote Link to comment
peep_tom Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I hope the Net ties the series in their next game, I want the Nets to win in this one. Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I hope the Net ties the series in their next game, I want the Nets to win in this one. Tough luck... it's now 0-2 in favor of the CAVS... It's not gonna be easy, this series... We were clobbered in the boards in Game 2... I told you Lawrence! You played Jason Collins again for 30 minutes and he gave 1 rebound! Clap! Clap! Clap!

Nightwing05 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 0-2.. going home.. that's tough.. but then, they haven't been beaten at their homecourt yet.. so there's hope.. now, if only vc would start taking that ball to the hoops instead of shooting jumpshots, it'd be a different ballgame.. series ends six games.. nets facing pistons next round..

xeanxyza Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 games were close... pero sabi nga nila "a loss is a loss"... sayang di makaporma big three natin eh... sana bumawi sa game three Quote Link to comment
bullrakk Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 don't count the nets out yet, if they can just hold on the next two games at home, this will be an entirely diffrent series - but this is easier said than done, 'need A1 game from the BIG 3 particularly VC who is on a slump the last 2 games Quote Link to comment
Eddy Syet Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 JASON KIDD :upside: did it all as the NETS defeated the CAVS 96-85 Jason Kidd tallied 23 points 13 rebounds 14 assists Finally! A win against the CAVS! :thumbsupsmiley: It's 2-1 and there's another game in our homecourt! Great defense and great resilience there! OMG, I was teary-eyed the whole game. I was reminded of how much I loved watching Kidd since his Mavs days! Now that's a LEADER for you. He was everywhere in Game 3! :thumbsupsmiley: We out-rebounded the Cavs for the first time in the series and we held James King to a mere 18 points on 5 of 16 shooting! :flowers: Carter and Jefferson both scored 23 points for our NETS! Keep believing guys!!! GO GO NETS!!! Quote Link to comment
