Keys to the Game:
-Contain Devin Harris & dribble penetration: Since making his season debut, Harris is averaging 16.5 ppg, but only on 36% shooting. The Nets as a team shoot just 26.5% from behind the arc. If we can keep them out of the paint, this game will be over quickly.
-Defense: This is a great game to get our defense back on track for 48 minutes. New Jersey is dead last in the NBA in points per game at just 88.5 ppg, shooting just 26% from behind the arc
-Control the paint: This is another opportunity for Shaq to show why we acquired him. It's not a premier team we're playing against, but it is an up & coming star in Brook Lopez.
-Avoid disappointment: The Nets are obviously struggling, but we cannot take them lightly. They do have a ton of talent on this team that can hurt you inside the paint. Stay aggressive & don't let up once we get the lead.
-Avoid careless mistakes: Careless mistakes lead to easy fast break points for the opposition. This team could be dangerous if we allow them to get easy buckets.
