Nets' vets take the lead in strong start to season
Briefly

"I'm battling the whole game. But I wanna win, so whatever I gotta do to win, I'm gonna do it," Finney-Smith said after scoring all 17 of his points in the second half. "It just feels good to make some shots tonight though."
"I said it before, even in training camp, we don't really care what people think, what they say," Schroder said. "We believe in this group and everybody wants to make the playoffs. And I think it starts with the veterans."
The Nets have asked a lot from Dorian Finney-Smith to start this season. He's had to guard both centers and point guards at times while in the team's small-ish starting lineup.
They're taking more three-pointers instead of mid-range shots. Schroder's high play from the Olympics has carried over to keep the Nets steady on offense while also defending opposing ball handlers full court.
