“Cam Thomas IS NOT HUMAN!” – Frank Isola reacts to Brooklyn Nets destroy Cleveland Cavaliers 120-101

Show with Frank Isola I’m Nancy Newman how do you respond to a deflating loss last night in Charlotte well you come out the next night in Cleveland with a little magic they were pouring it on in that second half they came out in that third quarter it was something to watch

Everything they threw up was going in it it really was and I Eagles said at the end of the quarter when cam Thomas made that three he said bottle it that’s really what they needed to do because that third quarter the Nets were outstanding they scored 44 points they

Knocked down eight of 10 three pointers melb has had 11 in the quarter Dennis shter had nine cam Thomas had 11 this game was tied at 67 and the Nets close out the quarter on a 29 to4 uh 29- 13 run but we sat here at halftime I had a

Feeling I the Cleveland Cavaliers I give them credit for what they did on Friday beating the Minnesota timber but you watch this team tonight they’re missing three starters Dean Wade a key guy off the bench isn’t playing I didn’t think they had enough Firepower I didn’t think

They had enough uh defense but give the Nets credit the Nets made shots how about that stat they made 13 of their first 17 three-pointers in the second half they were shooting lights out and cam Thomas deserves a lot of credit you know a lot of juice went out for the

Cavaliers probably outlasting Minnesota last night and like you said the Nets had everything they needed to do to take advantage the second half highlights now the third quarter well it played like a Brooklyn Nets Sizzle reel early in the third it’s Mel Bridges for three and this is where it started the

Game was tied at 67 the Brooklyn Nets call timeout muel Bridges gets a friendly roll in sometime that’s what gets you going because on the next possession they get a turnover and look at Dorian finy Smith running the court cam Thomas excellent work right here finding the open man during vny Smith

Just like that the Nets have a six-point lead and you know Mel Bridges he was on fire from the GetGo the driving dunk there 12 first half points and he carried it over into the second half yeah that was off of George Nang a basket and then how about this one

Dennis shw just picking the pocket and then you get dayon sharp with an easy inside basket there was a point where the netson made 10 of their first 14 shots in the third quarter stayed with it 7972 more bridges from long range 8272 and how about Dennis shuder he you

Know what the guy’s a talented offensive player the ball comes after he’s he’s looking at the basket the whole way yes it’s not a high percentage shot but he Nails it and then of course if you didn’t think if you like that how about this one from cam Thomas pulls up two

Defenders in his face I got you 9680 at the end of the third quarter no let up whatsoever fourth quarter Thomas again from long range unbelievable cavali scored the first pass go the fourth they going to make a comeback not so fast there cam Thomas it’s the three over Sam

Marill and cam had a couple of Threes where he was fouled the first one he didn’t convert the four-point play but here he comes off of a screen into the corner hits the pullup three he’s fouled look at the friendly bounce that he gets knocks down the free throw for the

Four-point play and before you knew it the Brooklyn Nets were up by 26 points so to their credit at 67 all they take control of the game with the back toback threes by Mel Bridges Dorian finny Smith and before you knew it it was a 26-point

Game and they closed the door on the Cleveland Cavaliers really important win for them tonight they mentioned during The Telecast Atlanta losing so the Nets had a really good night not only did they win but they picked up ground on the Atlanta Hawks all in all terrific

Performance 120 101 once again the final cam Thomas 29 Points 7 rebounds five assists a short time ago on the floor with Megan triblet cam this game was a one-point game at Halftime and then it was even tied up in there in the third quarter but you guys just something just sparked

And changed for you guys where you guys put up 44 points in the third what was a Difference Maker it’s our um energy and effort uh communication uh you know I’m pretty sure everybody probably say in the post game but you know I was a bit catless into talking like just talking

Up more being more like just talking to the guys getting them hyped up telling them what we need to do to get a win cuz you know it’s been a while and plus you know we’re we’re we’re in a stage of the Season where we have to get win so

Everybody has to get do something better than I used to and me is just being communicated like talking to the guys getting the guys hyped up so really that that really sparked us so you know got to keep it going Alando coming up so got

To keep it going I mean not only were you talking but you were shooting and shots started falling for you all threes came in that second half just for that offensive Rhythm that you that you guys saw in there what did you reap from the defense that second half to kind of open

Things up uh nothing really they was doing the same coverage same stuff and some of the shots in the first half I was just missing you know in the second half they’ll fall so I just want to get back in R of them just doing a little

Stuff finding my finding my guys for open threes makeer Miss uh pushing transition picking up full court just doing stuff to get you know my flow going so you know and then it started with the two threes so that’s what really got me going so it was it was a

Good second half for me for sure to have a game like this coming off of a back toback on a tough road trip but to have a response like this just what does this showcase even everyone’s happy you see all the smiles too but what is this

Showcase about what this team can do collectively shows a lot uh coming in you know after this you know think Miss losing like two three in a row it’s tough um you know cuz we’re we’re doing a lot of good things a lot of things on

Film but we’re just not coming out with wins but now now we just got to come out with wins and this game just shows that if we put together a full game even even now we could did some stuff better and they they had some runs that we

Shouldn’t have given up but you know we shown that we have full full Focus throughout most of the game uh we’re tough to beat making shots playing defense so I think we’re a tough team to beat when we lock in just focus on on a game plan to play congrats cam thanks so

Much thank you so much back to you you like to see it you know not only were they terrific but they were having fun yeah well when you’re winning you’re going to have fun so cam Thomas I like that interview where he he’s saying I

Was the one that was talking to the team you know kind of keeping them motivated then he admitted that he had a great game and you know what he’s played so well the last two games and that’s the thing about cam Thomas he can miss time

You put a basketball in his hands he knows what to do with it and there was one moment tonight in the first half I thought he took one really bad shot he spun in the lane there were three Defenders on him I was thinking cam you

Can’t those are the shots you can’t be taken I think Kevin Oly was thinking the same thing other than that he was terrific tonight outstanding performance from him let’s focus in on Camp Thomas arguably Frank his finest game as a pro he was scoring and facilitating right no

He was he was really good I will say that and at the third quarter how about this he was four for eight Dennis shud was four for four Mel BR is 4 for four they were combine 12 for 16 with 31 points in that quarter but look at cam

Thomas Sam Marl the poor guy he’s got no shot a guarding cam Thomas he’s spinning 18 different ways and I love this one how about the dribble hand off from Dron sharp and then you know you’re a good shooter when you get that that’s hits the rim a couple of times touches the

Backboard and then Falls in outstanding performance by cam Thomas here are your leading scorers on the net Side Of The Ledger it’s cam Thomas Mel Bridges Dennis shrer Nick Claxton there you see the final numbers and 255 and five Mel Bridges and cam Thomas in the same game

For the first time this season yeah and they did a lot of their damage in that third quarter a lot of the damage with the game tied and you wondered if it was getting away because you mentioned at halftime that Cleveland was trailing the entire first half and just like that

They took the lead in the third quarter Kevin Oly called the timeout and those back-to-back threes and it’s funny the Mel Bridges the first one that he hit it rattled in the dorany Smith one was clean from the corner but after that you know the Nets held the lead over the

Final 20 minutes of this game and over the final 20 minutes their offense was clicking everything looks better I get it when you’re making shots but a lot of those shots were good shots and you know and you get a little lucky the Dennis shooter shot was terrific then the cam

Thomas one at the end of the first half and that is not a lucky shot that’s Cam Thomas at his best that’s Cam Tom is saying where’s another Defender someone else come over to me I want to shoot it over two of you guys right with the you

Know the clock winding down the quarter winding down and he really put an exclamation point in that third quarter that was one of the best third quarters you’re ever or quarters I should say you’re going to see the net play so analyze this for us will you Frank they

Beat the Hawks twice they beat Philadelphia and Cleveland and yet lose to the bottom tier in the league yeah I know I that’s tough to understand I do think though the one thing you to put into context tonight with Cleveland Cleveland does not have Donovan Mitchell they don’t have Max juice they don’t

Have Evan M and I get it the Nets are missing guys too but Dean Wade had played well for Cleveland and you don’t have him coming off the bench so I thought the Nets tonight especially after what happened last night you would hope that they would have an edge again

We’ve talked about this so many times if you want to be in the playing tournament these are the kind of performances you have if you don’t want to be a part of it the Nets would lay lay an egg but I thought from start to finish and maybe

The N Clon a little scuffled early on with George Yang kind of got the team fired up but I think there’s something to what cam Thomas says cam Thomas has an energy about him I think his first couple of years I think too often he

Took bad shots and I think that kind of hurts the team a little bit I think tonight I is an example of what he’s been this season he takes a lot of good shots and a lot of tough shots he makes and I actually think that lifts the

Group up I think his performance tonight did exactly that we’re just getting started here on the hello for spee speech for for For for for for for spe fore
