What a tremendous victory for Coach Atkinson, Jeremy Lin, Brook Lopez and the Nets!

Nets Beat Pacers 103-94 in the first home game behind a complete game by Jeremy Lin (21pts/9asts/9rebs) and Brook Lopez 25pts/5rebs/1ast. Sean Kilpatrick and Grieviz Vasquez also provided the necessary offensive punch from the bench to start a run

What got the Pacers in the trouble is the huge number of fouls drawn by Jeremy Lin starting from the 1st quarter. He drew 3 fouls in the 1st quarter alone against 3 players. This resulted in Pacers getting foul trouble in early 4th quarter with 8 min left. Every foul got 2 Free Throws and it certainly lessened the Pacers defensive intensity.

What a great display of team effort and lethal execution of Pick-and-Roll by Jeremy Lin and Brook Lopez to get the Nets going after a slow start!

Congratulations for the gritty Brooklyn Nets! This game would no doubt validated Jeremy Lin as a complete Point Guard with his all-around performance.

JLin Post-Game Interview: he praised his teammates and talked about grabbing the game ball to give to Coach Atkinson as a memento for this historic 1st win as an NBA Coach
