Nets Are Scorching

Oh, and grad school never lets up :(

Four of those games were early; 8 were this year. In the early games he was 3.5 out of 10.5, with 12.0 ppg. So, lower shooting %, but more points due to going to the line more.

BTW, I think I see the opposite pattern in CDR: he seems to do better w/o Devin. His hottest streak of the year (Oct. 31 to Nov. 18, 20.9 ppg, 167 pts from 126 shots) had 7 games w/o Devin and ended the game after his return.

Eh, don't feel like going to bed, so I checked it out myself:

CLee with Devin, 44 games, averages 33.7 mins, 5.1 for 11.3 shooting (0.451), 13.4 ppg.
CLee without Devin, 12 games, averages 32.6 mins, 3.6 for 9.7 shooting (0.371),10.1 ppg.

Seems like a pretty big difference, even with a small sample.

I'd be interested in the breakdown of how CLee does with and without Devin in the lineup. I'd guess he badly needs Devin there to score, because he doesn't seem to be good at creating his own shot. And Keyon/TWill/Quinn just don't draw the defenders the way Devin does.

Brook's body language is getting REALLY bad.

this just shows how much of an impact harris makes, he may not be the best leader verbally but he leads by example

Don't get your hopes up folks: CD-R is (by my figuring) #10 on Kiki's depth chart. And this is with Hassel demoted below him (if indeed he is). When Devin and The Franchise get back, he'll be strictly mop-up.

CDR kept the score respectable, but poor shooting nights for the starters wasted it.

CDR looked alive for the first time in months. If he can possible return to that agressive streak and provide offense (and a fourth option) with the second unit it could be big in term of avoding infamy. Either way it was nice to see a return to form.
