SuperJohn was a fun player.  A super gunner.
I was at one early NBA Nets game (at the then new Rutgers Athletic Center) and Super John hit a long fadeaway J while falling into the Nets bench.  Crazy.  And there wasn't a 3 point shot then ...

Deron a good guess.
I'm sort of surprised he didn't.
I'll have to check on that.

Two more .  .  .

[bodiddley]

My mistake.
6 Nets scored 50 or more.
Deron did it.  A 57 point game in his 2nd Net season.
Kyrie was the 7th Net to half-century it.

1. Marbury
2. Invincible Carter
3. Super John Williamson!
4. Deron Williams

5. _________ has a Knick connection

6. _________ I'll give you his initials after a while . . .

These are the hard ones ...

[bodiddley]

Doncic and KZ combined for 57 points.  Also 10 turnovers.
DAL won despite more turnovers than assists (19 to 17).

Fortunately they played WASH.
Wiz starters combined 2 -22 on 3's (half that was Beal 1-11)

DAL bench dominated despite going 3-15 on 3's.
Tim Jr. had 4 Pts and 4 Fouls in 21 mins.  Missed all 5 of his 3's.
Mavs started Courtly, with Tim off the bench.

KZ 3-7 on 3's.  23 points.  Just 4 boards.

[bodiddley]

Donovan with 32 & 12 boards.
Conley debuts with 1-16 FG & 5 fouls.  Yikes.

Muddy with 12 & 5 in 23 backup PG mins.  6-11 FG.
Makes me nervous a team relying on Jeff Green and Mud.

[Yankguy1]

27 and 13 for Sabonis.

[bodiddley]

One is an ex-Knick who only played 1 year with the Nets.

The other played 2 seasons Netside.
His initials are MN.

[Yankguy1]

Mike Newlin!!!!!

[facilitatorn]

Šarūnas Marčiulionis

Maybe your thinking of Petrovic.

Drazen!
Good guess!

But wrong . . .

Was thinking Drazen. Thanks

[Yankguy1]

Mike Newlin also played for the Knicks.

[kiidcarter8]

Mike Newlin!!!!!

Yank watched the game last night

[Yankguy1]

No Yank didn't.

1. Marbury
2. Invincible Carter
3. Super John Williamson!
4. Deron Williams
5. MIKE NEWLIN

Newlin was a good shooter, sort of the Joe Harris of his day.
Played mostly for HOU in the 70's,  Finished his career with two Net seasons and a final Knick year.  Very difficult to guess.

and still one more
6. _________ has a strong Knick connection.

Actually I didn't even recall that he played with the Nets at all (just one season there, in which he dropped a 50 game).

Pretty good Depth Chart info on one page from Hoopshype:
https://hoopshype.com/2019/07/10/nba-depth-charts/

Lotta teams have weak benches.
That listing will help me find trades for NYK to make.

I like how DET fixed their weak bench by going with a few weak starters . ..

[bodiddley]

Saw mostly 2Q MIL - HOU.
Rocks were up 16 at the half, with Harden & Rustbrook  I think 2-12 on 3's while the other Rockettes were 12-20.
Russ was zooming down court, collapsing the D and kicking to open corner 3-men.

Bucks came roaring back 2nd half.  39 Pt 4Q.
Harden only made 2 FG's.
Gordon & Harden combined 6-32 FG (4-20 on 3's).
Geo Hill pestered Harden and finished with a team high +16.

Quite a comeback for MIL on the Road.  Deep team.
Seems Giannis fouled out up 6 with 5 mins left. 
And MIL held on.  Sounds like a fun game.
I mostly saw Rocks dominating with 3's.

[bodiddley]

Speaking of weak benches. 
GS is really thin.
ALso literally so, as they don't have big men.
Gave up 140 to CLips.
