    Re: 2014 Eastern Conference Playoffs -1st Round Discussion Thread

    Nets' fanbase just got called out by it's own Twitter account of all things last night lol:

    Brooklyn Nets @BrooklynNets Follow #Nets fans take note- this is what a playoff crowd sounds like..set your DVD and take notes #RAPTORSvNETS - LR
    Basically saying the Crowds in Brooklyn have been trash.

      Being middle of the road and being a point guard is basically a compliment anyways.. After the top 5 or so, you have like 10 guys who are basically even in production. That's why I was saying it's an easy position to fill, no reason to over pay.

        I don't think it's as easy to fill as people are making it out to be. I'm talking about chemistry and specifically what the raptors need going forward.

          I was referring to other teams overpaying to get him away from TOR.

            2 hours until game time, I got that nervous energy going on. Is this the end? After watching all 82 games and the 5 playoff games, I honestly have no clue. Either way, we will see what this team is made of, they will either be a huge embarrassment or they will show there is still some fight left in the dog. I think we will know which one it is in the first 15-20 minutes of the game.

              I wouldn't give him a long term deal, but something like 2-3 years would be fine. That'd take him into his early 30s.

              Don't know what's funnier about the tweet, fact that they called out fanbase, or said "set your DVD".

                Technically the Pacers can still win the championship.

                  They were talking about that Tweet a bit last night during the game. I can't believe that the official Nets Twitter Account called the fanbase out like that. That's pretty crazy there. I'm sure Barclays will be crazy loud tomorrow.

                    Raptors-Nets game had 1M viewers in Canada alone. To compare....1M in Canada is the equivalent to what 10M is to USA(amount of Canadian TV viewers is about 10% of USA viewers). It's also first time ever a Raptors game had over 1M average viewers watching(it peaked around 2M,which if you can do the math,would be like 20M in USA).

                      Probably some intern or something runs the twitter account.

                      Still funny though.

                        I'm predicting the Pacers come out hot and get a nice lead through the first half. Epic collapse is complete when Hawks punch them in the mouth coming out of the half and make them pack it up in the sulking manner they've shown themselves to have. By the end of the third quarter we'll be seeing the Roy Hibbert sad face on the bench as if the game is already over.

                              There's no way the pacers get killed this game.
