Brooklyn at New York

A loss to the Knicks ten days ago is going to be motivational fodder for the Nets. The Nets seem to wake up when playing in the Garden, as they have not lost to the Knicks since '04 here. New York hasn't had much to hang their hat on, winners of just four of their last 19, and hearing boos every time they take the floor at home. They have dropped their last four at home to NBA powers such as Seattle and Philadelphia. Coach Thomas has lost this team, and the team has lost the fans. We just can't trust this Knicks team right now to win any game, so will ride the Nets off a home win last night against NJ.
