Didn't watch any of it, but the Nets were outscored 34-15 in the 3rd quarter at home by the Pistons. I guess because they can't fall that far behind the 8th seed in the East is why Kidd remains coach. They've lost 5 straight and could lose 10 more and remain only 5-6 games out of a playoff spot. No hurry. [Accidentally posted in another thread]
I cannot believe how badly the Celtics are going to swindle the Nets on that trade. That Nets pick is shaping up to be quite valuable. Celtics could potentially get 2 Top 10-12 picks in an ungodly draft.
Rotoworld is speculating that the Thunder are just giving him rest before a tough 3-game stretch. Not like they need Westbrook to beat a bad Utah team.
Thanks. Too many injuries around the league and glad this is not the case. The Thunder last played Thursday and won't play again until Wednesday, so that's 5 days off for Westbrook. Wonder if Stern will assess a fine .
