GAMENIGHT  

Brooklyn Nets (1-1) @ Miami Heat (3-1)

American Airline Arena 7:30

TV: YES – RADIO: WFAN 660 AM 

Tonight the Nets travel to Miami to take on the Heat after and embarrassing loss on Monday to Minnesota at home.  The Nets will do their best to put the previous games collapse behind them and focus on DEFENSE and finishing.  The Nets will have to do what they can defensively without their stalwart Gerald “Crash” Wallace to guard and contain Lebron James and it will have to be a team effort to make up for Wallace’s absence.

The Nets gave up an atrocious 62 points in the paint last game and that simply CANNOT happen tonight if they plan on winning this tough game. Keith Bogans will probably start for Wallace and the Nets will again mix and match lineups to make up for his abscence and get back on the winning track. 

Brooklyn’s AllStar backcourt will have to play huge tonight to give the Nets a chance and I think they both will come up big.
