At Half time of the national televised 76ers vs Nets game. Nets found themselves up by 10 at the half. (52:42) Al played 10:35 minutes and has 2 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 steal, and a block going 1-4 from the field. However he has the lowest plus minus in the game with a -30.

Dinwiddie completely blows the game for the Nets in overtime | He bricks vomits an airball with less than a minute to go in overtime against the Philadelphia Sixers, a team they were beating for most of the second half and a win the nets really wanted and needed seeings how Kyrie is done for the year and they are competing for the playoffs. He held the ball for over 16 seconds to go in regulation and only starts the play with over 4 seconds to go from near half court, ends up running into the paint and passes it to a player who barely had any time to react and doesn't get a good look. Dinwiddie should have manned up and taken the floater but didn't. He did hit a very good shot giving the Nets a 2 for 1 opportunity at the end of regulation and giving them the lead, but that was probably a lucky shot because it was so ridiculous and off-balanced fadeaway, rushed for the 2 for 1, if he played more without thinking maybe he'd be better. He then complained hard for the foul which I didn't see. He thinks he's head and shoulders better than everyone else active on the team but he's not that good. The Nets were successful last year and the year before because they all thought of themselves equals, but unfortunately Dinwiddie's ego has got the better of him. He's now a cancer in the lockeroom with his bullshit investor idea and I can't see him getting along with another egomaniac in Kyrie. They should seriously trade him because they could probably get a good ROLE player, not a player who thinks he's an allstar because he won the 2016/7 skills challenge.
