From Yahoo! Sports

The Brooklyn Nets will be without one of their starters as they attempt to snap a four-game losing streak on Monday vs. the Charlotte Hornets. Terance Mann will miss the home matchup due to right rib soreness.

Mann popped up on the Nets’ injury report with the rib ailment following Friday’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. The team listed him as questionable for Saturday’s matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks before upgrading him to available. He played 21 minutes during a 116-99 loss, posting four points, one rebound, one assist and two turnovers on 2-of-8 shooting from the field and 0-of-4 from three.

Monday will mark Mann’s first absence of the season. He’s started all 19 of the Nets’ games following his offseason trade from the Atlanta Hawks.

Miller is out?

Yep. “Should Injury Management”

It’s a joke to me. Basically the teams just call load management injury management now. Miller is soft and I’m over guys sitting when they aren’t hurt.

Do you know the extent of what he is dealing in order to call him soft?

No I don’t. The NBA is soft. I don’t want to hear about it.

Would a player like Kobe sit for “Injury management”?

Ugh. Finally get a couple of wins and right back with this.

That’s what I’m saying. If he can play, play him. Players will just get hurt more bc their bodies can’t handle the load bc they do not play.

the best thing about this game so far has been the lady behind our bench

Win 2 big games in a row. Rear miller for “injury management”. Lose to a bad team and kill all the momentum we had. If you don’t like that, you don’t like Hornets basketball.

These are tanking lineups aren't they?

Miles is forcing everything tonight.

Hate this lineup so much, late in the 4th

So can Lamelo not play anymore tonight in crunch time?

TheDorkLord

I assume he has used up his minutes

Mich_Mercer

It’s such a joke

If not… coach needs to manage his minutes better. It’s baffling he uses all his minutes before the end of games. lol

TheDorkLord

living in a tank is not fun

GoBobcats24

This is just some fucking INSANE lineups in the 4th Charles

We gotta get Kon the ball in scoring positions

And BRING LAMELO IN why even play

Cannot go beyond 27-28 minutes. He’ll be hurt

Cannot play Miller, just in case his should may get hurt

TheDorkLord

the only reason I'm watching this year is to see our rookies… otherwise I would check out until next year

I’ve never seen a team not play the their best player at the end of games like this… manage his minutes better… it’s baffling

Like the minutes a thing is killing his game. He and miller are both pressing bc of it

Just my opinion

Omg… he’s back in

TheDorkLord

last year was the first year I've ever checked out, but I found just watching game highlights on Youtube was good enough for how we were playing

Mich_Mercer

Sad. Very sad

He can play 2 minutes if my calculation is correct. Lol

I knew we were going to be shitty tonight. Bc that’s the Hornets way. Can’t win too much.

Hope Millers shoulder is ok… getting that rest

GoBobcats24

Lamelo back in now that it's too late

Mich_Mercer

Yep.

And I’m back to being pissed again. I hate this team lol

See you Wednesday… bc I apparently hate myself.

Charles Lee Disasterclass

This whole let's play an entire bench lineup for most of the 4th quarter is kind of pissing me off

Like there was no reason to sit Kon 6 mins to start the quarter

And Miles my goodness he left his brain in NC

TheDorkLord

how much of a tank bonus does Lee receive?

tnhornetsfan

He gets to keep his job?

Melo and Miles are horrible. Ever since the trade thing came out melo has been playing like he is not interested.

Miles was great against Toronto though. At least he consistently plays….. I’ll give him that. Sucks when you have your two key players, who are constantly out of the lineup for “injury management”.

He does consistently play and I do appreciate that. He just isn’t good most of the time.

Melo may be injured still but he is just awful. Looks like he is playing open run at summer league

With Miller being out again Wednesday, it just keeps getting better and better. These guys will never learn to play together bc they cannot stay on the floor. I’m just so sick of it.

O miles… your not that guy pal
