Adam Armbrecht is in to recap one heck of a performance from the Brooklyn Nets! The post-trade roster has kept fans on the edge of their seats on both ends of the spectrum. Tonight after losing in heartbreaking fashion to Cleveland on Thursday night, Mikal Bridges, Spencer Dinwiddie and the entire roster showed resiliency and grit in what was very much a season defining game.

I'm constantly being surprised by the Nets "resiliency." I'm going to take a wait and see attitude concerning an overall evaluation of them until after the season. I hope the Nets fan base do the same.
Sumner and Dorian Finney-Smith were more productive than usual. Sumner scored 12 points in 15 minutes. For the remainder of the season, I hope JV bring him off the bench instead of Curry. I think the team's defense is too often overlooked which played the biggest part in securing the Nets victory. Of course, JV did a masterful job of coaching to beat an established Heat team, in Miami, with a motley crew of spare parts. I'm sure most Nets fans were as surprised as the Heat fans were stunned.
Hustle!!! That was Brooklyn motto going into a crucial playoff seeding game against the Heat..
The first half though Brooklyn looked slow and out of rhythm on defense. But in that third quarter the DEFENSE came back. Mikal Bridges Cam Johnson Dorian Finney Smith nic Claxton and Spencer dinwiddie were all defensively solid.
Claxton had another huge double double, outplayed Bam and has been locked in playoff mode last few games.
Dorian Finney Smith agressive defense was huge again and he made some important buckets and dunks. Royce o Neale again contributed on defense while The Twins ( Mikal Bridges and cam Johnson) both had huge 20 point + games and it was a huge team effort from the starting unit..
But to hold the Heat to 18 points in the third quarter is the mode Brooklyn needs to be in defensively during the playoffs because they anything can happen.
A huge win with another big game coming up against Orlando. Let's go 🔥🔥🔥….
This is what happens when he rotates the players. Needs to do it consistently.
And they weren't loosing by large margins. So they just had some adjustments to make.
This win do not resubmit the Nets into the playoff picture. I mean this team is going to win games but there season is over. Since the trade they lost more games then they won.. that's just being realistic.. The Brooklyn Nets owner butcher this team. We're not even talked about as being contenter anymore.
We always beat Miami that's why they behind us in the standings.. But we need to worry about teams like the Knicks that never beat us until now?
An impressive win in a high stakes game! Nets defensive was outstanding and this game shows what the team can do when they are hitting shots. NOW… can they do it again tonight? We will soon know the answer to that.
Just let Sharpe free! He needs the minutes in order to show what he can do .Give me some summer ! Love that speed he brings to the game .
Lol it was good wen I was more impressed with Boston and Denver wen . I told my wife it was must win or I’m done watching for season it was starting to be to disappointing to watch
Man, it makes me so happy to see this

I said in the past. Sumner could be our back-up PG. (Decent and cheap)
He gives me Bruce Brown vibes. 🙂
Still not playing Cam Thomas. This is stupid and disgusting.
