The Brooklyn Nets are 9-1 under Coach PJ Carlesimo and they get another one Tonight at the Hands of the Dinosaurs from the North..the Toronto Raptors 113-106. That for the Nets is their 7th Win in a Row and also puts them right behind the Manhattan Knicks.

The Big Three for the Nets...Williams, Johnson, and Lopez all get 20 points plus as Williams and Johnson get 21 apiece and Lopez 22 points to lead Five Nets Players in Double Figures. Kyle Lowry gets 21 points in only 14 plus minutes to lead the Raptors. The Nets have been playing to the Strengths of their Roster. D-Will is put in Pick and Rolls and On the Ball Screens to create the Offense and everyone else will get the Orange accordingly. Under Johnson the Nets would try to get the Orange to Lopez in the Post or Johnson as a Point Forward and work from there. That's not going to work with a $90 Million Point God in which the Team is built around.

Now the Nets find themselves 1 1/2 games back of the Atlantic Division leading Knicks and just like that the Plot thickens. Both Williams and Johnson seem to be at ease under Carlesimo and the Team is responding to PJ's Coaching Style. Both the Knicks and Nets look like they are on a Collision Course only made for NYC in Winning Time in April. The Nets move to 23-15 and the Dinosaurs fall to 14-24.

Up Next for BKN: @ the Highlight Factory and Joe Johnson's 1st Visit back to ATL since the Trade...and Atlanta probably won't stand up for JJ.
