• Nets vs. Heat - Game 3 NBA Playoffs

  
  

  It was a great playoffs game from the get go and the Nets played really well.  Carter and Kidd made some difficult baskets and smooth passes.  What a duo!  And Jefferson swooped through the air to make a slam dunk!  Very cool.  When Shaq got on the court, he looked like a giant next to Wade (only 21) and Kidd.  Shaq made some baskets without an angle, cos that's just how tall he is!  Players ran into him and bounced off as water bouncing off of a wall.  Wade made some pretty shots too.  Agua! 

  
  

  Things were going good for the Nets but Miami turned on the Heat.  They went into Double Overtime.  I was so exhausted, from having cheered and booed for almost 3 hours, but i had to continue rallying up the players in the crucial last minutes.  Miami played a tight game and Nets missed some baskets since Jefferson couldn't make far shots.  Miami won 108 - 105.  What made it more fun - the Jersey crowd really gets into it and we sat just right of the Nets bench.  We also saw celebrities Beyonce, Ludacris, and Jay-Z, minority owner of the Nets.  (someone touched his hand!)  It was great to see so many great players in person, when I'm used to just seeing them on the tube.
