Nets beat Knicks 110-104 to end 10-game home skid

“After careful consideration, I’ve concluded that it’s time for a fresh start and a new vision for the direction of the team”, said Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov in a statement on Sunday. 500 with a record of 20-20 on the season and 11-8 at home.

There is no word on whether or not Thibodeau has any interest in coaching the Nets, but Brooklyn certainly has interest in him. “We thought we had great energy in the [San Antonio] Spurs game and we don’t want to make any excuses, but we were playing a great team and we felt we did a lot of things right in that game”. Brown moved guards Wayne Ellington and Donald Sloan into the starting lineup, but they combined for just 10 points on 4-of-12 shooting. They look at what’s next for the Nets and how we got into this situation.

Derrick Williams tied his career high with 31 points for the Knicks, who played without leading scorer Carmelo Anthony and had their two-game win streak snapped. This made up for the off night that Kristaps Porzingis had, as he made just five out of 17 baskets, to go along with 10 rebounds.

That’s why we need a small reset for this year, and I hope we will be back as a playoff team and as a championship contender. “That is why we need players and a coach who can resist this pressure – who can survive”. “We want to have a little bit more fun”.

“If I make a pass, the team reads off what I do, if I dribble a big, he goes down and the other big comes out”.

“San Antonio is the gold standard for the NBA”, Brown noted following the 106-79 drubbing, absorbing the first of a steady stream of losses that will appear on his coaching resume until Prokhorov and Zanin figure out exactly whom the sixth head coach of the Brooklyn era will be.

Brook Lopez, the longest-tenured Net and an optimistic sort by nature, didn’t hide his feelings on what a wild ride it’s been since Brooklyn tipped off its first-ever game here back on November 3, 2012. The fact that Shane Larkin could very well be the fourth-best player on their roster right now means they would probably be better off trading as many roster players as possible in order to build up future assets, which is something they are severely lacking right now. “And I think the biggest part of that is with us coming up with some of the superstars in this league and being in that good age group, which is the 27-, 28-, 26-year-old guys and trying to get some of those guys to come here”.

When Calipari spoke with minority ownership in Sacramento last spring, he told them that it would take an offer of $11 million-plus a year to get his attention, league sources said.

“We’ve had some success with a lot of action in the paint”, Brown said, calling the paint Lopez’s bread and butter.
