Ugh, Paul George again. Yet another brutal Net-killer, but one whose sure-to-be-highly-successful career is just beginning |

With the Bulls still just three games in back with four games left for both them and Brooklyn, the Nets still have some significant work to do in order to ensure their #4 seed in the Eastern Conference. Wednesday's important win over the Celtics was big in terms of the Brooklyn finally beating a playoff team for the first time in what felt like forever. But with Chicago breaking the Knicks' big win streak last night, that team is getting hot at the right time for them, and the wrong one for the Nets. NEVER count that squad out, ever.
Hopefully, Gerald Wallace will return tonight after his ugly heel contusion suffered back vs Boston. Other than that, not much to look for in this one as the Pacers don't have a whole lot to play for, other than the very slim chance they catch the Knicks for the #2 seed. Another insurance win would all but clinch the #4 slot for Brooklyn, so a disinterested Pacers team would be a nice gift for the Nets.
Probable Lineups
BKN- Williams (PG), Johnson (SG), Wallace (SF), Evans (PF), Lopez (C)
IND- Hill (PG), Stephenson (SG), George (SF), West (PF), Hibbert (C)
Final Thoughts
Please no more injuries, please.
