75 points in the first half with Steve Nash/Mike D/Amare in the house? Yeah, that's fitting.

It's almost like they're coaching the defense.

It’d be disrespectful to the Washington Generals if I were to compare Brooklyn’s defense to theirs.

This is like 1st quarter All-Star game bad

I appreciate what those individuals did for the franchise, but this is kind of cathartic for me tonight. It's honestly really nice to root for a Suns team that doesn't completely suck defensively

Nice hard foul on Green by Ayton. Showing some chutzpah, DA. Like it ...

Someone please play Shaqs analysis of DA to him before each game. Basically telling him how to dominate.

Can't really ask for a better half than that. Great offense all around, inside and outside, plus very good defense. The offense is really clicking, tho a lot of it has to do with the Nets' defense for sure. But seeing the ball movement, the dribble penetration, the transition baskets and Paul and Book in sync and the bench guys continuing to contribute...feels like it's all coming together.

Brooklyn defending a little harder this half. Keep the pressure on and I think they’ll fold

And get back to their mid range attack on offense.
