Frank Isola “IMPRESSED” Cam Thomas shines 27 Pts help Brooklyn Nets 115-111 win over Indiana Pacers
An exciting victory for Brooklyn against the Indiana Pacers but we can’t bury the lead here as Ian Eagle just mentioned they are eliminated officially from playoff game yeah really disappointing the Nets will not be able to be in the play in tournament this year and Atlanta did take care of business before the
Nets won the game so that’s over it’s been a while since the Nets haven’t been in a play and remember a few years ago they played Cleveland at home won that then they were the seven seed no playoffs this year for the Brooklyn Nets they did have a good win tonight really
Good fourth quarter after Pascal yam was just tearing them aport he scored 13 straight points for Indiana at one point then Mel Bridges finally stood in there took a charge and the Nets close out the game on a 10 to3 run and in case you’re wondering the players at that point
Don’t know that their season is over and they’re competing and for these last handful of games they’ll compete in those as well because Kevin olly that so Bittersweet they get a win tonight but obviously any aspirations of being in the play maybe trying to get the a seed
And you know getting a first round series that’s out the window yeah it’s the first time in five years the Nets are not going to make the playoffs if they did make it this year it would have matched an NBA uh record for the Nets in their franchise for uh stringing
Together playoff Seasons at six from 2002 to 2007 let’s take a look at what Frank was just before tyres halber and hit the three but then you had Jaylen Wilson stepping to the free throw line 7 Seconds to go to ice the game so the Nets ended really well even though now
They’re officially out of it yeah you take a look at the Honda game summary Nets as we mentioned eliminated from playoff contention with the Hawks win cam Thomas 27 points in the win the Nets win by four they had that huge second quarter 42 points and 14 of them coming
From Noah Clowney he had a career game for the Brooklyn Nets tonight but it just it stinks on Ice that a win this good just doesn’t really mean anything with the Hawks and Noah clany was really good in that second quarter like you mentioned 14 of the 42 points that he
Had knocked down three three pointers and I think now over these next handful of games you’re going to see these young guys all getting a lot of playing time Kevin Oly wants to win games and I think that’s always the right mindset to have close out the season on a high note so
The Nets are going to try to be competitive but it’s also smart of them at this point to play the young guys as many minutes as they can it wasn’t the tears of a Clowny it was a piai esque in the second quarter for I know you like
Those references so no a Clowny the Nets were down 3119 and his game is not getting Lost in Translation at the big level with the big Nets moments ago he was with our Megan triplet here’s what he had to say about the win thanks Chris Noah this was a game
Where you guys had to find various ways to Rally what did it take for you guys to close this one out down the stretch um I feel like it all started defensive end we got some stops and you know shots start falling and you know it’s all
Around good energy I feel like everybody cheering for everybody today we had Good Vibes the whole way well look everybody was cheering for you you as well 22 points 10 rebounds in 17 minutes of play coming off the bench describe to me just the zone that you
Were in uh you know I mean I’ve been hooping I’ve been in the g a lot so I’ve been getting a lot of shots so I’ve been confident it was just trying to play with the same confidence at the same at the next level you saw the confidence
Also from downtown you knocked down three threes you told me that it was coming how good was it to show off that three-point game here at barklay Center in front of the fans hey man I shook just a little bit but it was good it was fun all right thanks Noah congrats
Appreciate you back to you Chris Megan Noah thank you so much Frank a career high 22 points and a career high 10 rebound yeah I love that stat second youngest n player with the least 20 points in Clifford robins and that’s a long time ago and again Noah Clen I
Think he’s been a really good development uh you know development story and the one thing about the Brooklyn Nets when it comes to big men they’ve done a good job in the recent five six years of developing young big men and this is a guy that they brought
Along slowly and every time he’s out there he seems to make contribution Jared Allen Nick claxon drron sharp drron sharp Noah Clowney we’re going to step aside take a break stats here in Brooklyn’s four-point win over the Pacers now points in the paint that was a huge story on Monday in Indianapolis
Where Indiana scored 70 points in the paint the Nets were a minus 18 that wasn’t a big story tonight the Nets just minus 6 but the uh big story is the plus4 Victory and it was a very happy K Oli taking the first volley from Megan triplet coach congrats on the win oh
Thank you U when that buzzer went off you could tell you how excited you were you were rallying the the fans to cheer just for you you said that this team was going to be ready tonight against his Pacers team just what impressed you about this one and how they were able to
Rally and respond they just was figuring it out and I just told him before the game like a true competitor uh loves to figure it out more than the outcome and they just figured it out um we got out to a great start then it got a little
Low once we got 11 points but then they just figured out how to play and um they just executed and they played with toughness we gave up a couple offensive rebounds but they kept fighting um Pacers made some great shots but they kept fighting um they could have easily
Gave up when you know cakam was going off but they didn’t and it’s just it just shows the pride of this group I just told them like you got to celebrate these because everybody in the World thought we was going to give up but that group in there and that’s what I’m proud
Of the most you mentioned about just controlling what you can control and how you were just focus on what your team was able to to do tonight with this win just how do you address everything else when it comes to how it played out with
The Hawks and just the play in like I’ve been doing every game Megan I haven’t talked about the Hawks um we trying to build Championship character we’re trying to build um competitive character and that’s just taking care of one another and just competing no matter
What the outcome is I just told you like I don’t worry about the outcome I worry about figuring it out hello for for e for for for for for for for that
