 0-5 the Nets improved to 6-1 in their home openers here at Barkley Center and his canter with a heck of a game 12 of 18 from the field 29 points 10 boards but Karris Leverett sets that career high 28.6 rebounds five assists moments ago iron eagle and sourcoup stock broke this game down we go down to the floor right now thanks guys the Nets hold on here against the Knicks tight game they had a double-digit lead again similar to what they had against Detroit on opening night but this time they execute down the stretch and Karris Leverett was fantastic it was tremendous and Karris Leverett was fantastic on both ends of the floor I think the first thing that we turned to is his 28 points six rebounds five assists but he had some defensive possessions and stops there down the crucial points of the game that is really what turned things around and it was Karris Leverett but it was also big shots by D'Angelo Russell everyone contributed Jared Dudley did a lot of the little things of course Ed Davis with his rebounding Jared Allen so you can go down the list but this was certainly a collective team effort and I think you know it's not so much a sigh of relief from when we heard from Karris Leverett after but they are motivated to change and shift the dialogue of what this team is this season the way this team is constructed there's a chance they're gonna play in a lot of close games throughout the year so you get into these tight situations you want a frame of reference you want a body of work that you can lean on a game like this can help now in the future just based on the fact that they've had some success and they got it done down the stretch against this New York squad and I think it also shows that they have a lot of versatility in the lineups that they can play with in understanding of different guys may play at different moments and it's it's you play that game for what it is and everyone's ready for the next one and you take the positives out of this one but you also look at okay why did the Knicks get back in this ball game how can we help clean over clean up the issue of turnovers and what can we try and do to improve upon that but I think overall just a tremendous job of what they did on the defensive side of the ball also also early on the game cleaning up the defensive glass which has been something that we talked about often and just the movement and unselfishness of this offense and a double-double for Jared Allen this is no longer a bonus that the Nets are getting from Allen this is becoming the consistent production from their second year big man Nets get it done at home and take the home opener against the next first of four meetings for these two teams back to you guys
