Of the last 96 NBA games Andrea Bargnani and Shane Larkin's teams have played, those clubs have won 20, 17 with the Knicks last season, three so far with Nets this season. Not good and not their fault. But Brooklyn needs both of them to play well. if they have any chance of turning the season around.
Brian Lewis of the Post notes that the two refugees from MSG were crucial in the Nets win over the Celtics Sunday. Larkin played 17 minutes and scored seven points while handing out five assists. Moreover, he continued his three point shooting prowess, now at 50 percent.
