The Brooklyn Nets arguably played their best game of the 2013-14 season and they still get lose. Then Nets catch the L.A. Clippers on the 2nd leg of a Back to Back Motel Swing and hit the Clips early and Lob City never recovered. The key for the Nets is PG Deron Williams and Big Brooks Lopez who unfortunately goes down with some sort of Ankle or Foot Injury in the 3rd frame.
D-Will 8 is the Floor General the Nets so sorely needed in their collapse back when he went down with Ankle Injuries to the same Ankle. Tonight the Clips and CP 3 could do nothing with him as he did everything a an Point God in the Logo could do with an Orange but consume it. D-Will 8 had 15 points, five boards, and four helpers but it was his impact on the game that was a sight to see and the difference for the Nets. Joe Johnson of Jordan Brand added 21 as he had a deft touch from the Arc (4-7 3pt FG) and Brooks Lopez' 16 points as Key Reserve Andray Blatche went for 21 points off the bench.
The Clips struggled as the Nets Half Court "D" was fantastic as they bottled up Clips Point God Chris Paul at every Pick and Roll or Pick and Pop forcing him to make a decision with the Orange quicker than what he would have liked. CP 3 had 20 points but didn't hit the Stat Sheet with anything else but Crumbs. The Blake Show went for 12 points and eleven boards but struggled mightily with his Mid-Range Jumper. Jamal 206 led the Clippers Bench called a "Tribe called Clippers Bench" as they were non-existent outside of Jamal.
The Clips fall to 15-9 and that is five of their seven game Motel Swing. The BK Nets are playing well as D-Will 8 just needs to have his ankle hold up as they move to 8-14.
