CDT's Keys To Vic-Tor-Y
* First off let me express my pure and undivided hatred for this franchise. From Richard Jeffersons' ear to scalp ratio, to the two quitters in Vince " I play when I want " Carter to Jeff " Pouty Pants " McInnis. And some more incentive in facing former Cavalier Lamond Murray.
* Attack the bucket, Nenad will cause problems for young Andy Veryjoe so if LeBron Larry and Flip can rack a few fouls up and get him out of the game and ol' man Robinson in the game that would be very very good. I won't give him too much credit though, Andy is like a mosquito and we're talking about a guy named "Nad" :chuckles:
* Don't sweat the streak! So what they've won 14 in a row, who cares? In a week or so all of our records will be ( 0 - 0 ) So why not get that "playoff" mindframe in gear now?
* Play transition defense, Jason Kidd likes to run and gun with his swingmen highflyers in Carter and Jefferson. Slow Kidd down and you will slow the Nets fastbreak game down and keep the crowd out of it.
In conclusion and without a moment to spare..
Tough transition defense on Jason Kidd will have him looking like this. Reminiscent of a deer in headlights..and will prompt him to go home and beat his wife, much like he did the day this picture was taken.
CDT Prediction: Cavaliers 104 Nets 99 The Nets are rolling, they are at home, we don't have Zydrunas and Hughes is still trying to find his niche with this ballclub. BUT LeBron James will have a monster game and somehow pull this one out, good overall effort from the bench gets it done.
