Gotta Have Some F*cking Pride and Optimism. Brooklyn Nets 22-23 Season Thread

All hate aside, this can’t be right.

Is it?

He’s not a point guard.

 

[Collateral]

I lost money from Clax getting hurt. I was watching him get bodied by AD all night, and next thing you know he’s out with an eye contusion smfh.

We are awful guarding bigs and the 3 point line. How we let the Lakers the worst shooting team in the league rain 3s on us

The Sacremento game should be interesting

Guarding the 3 point line is bad because of the inability to guard bigs leading to doubles and late rotations.

KD signed the extension expecting Harden and Irving to be right behind him. He didn't expect the fukkery that ensued.

Understood but KD should know how quickly things can unravel in the NBA. Especially with personalities like Harden and Kyrie. And otherwise, KD would have more leverage as far as organizational demands if he didn't sign that extension.

Agreed. But I think KD thought he had his boys, and they were going to play, with no distractions like he does.

I think Jame and Kyrie love basketball, but the don't eat and breathe it like KD.

Upcoming schedule over the next 2 weeks should give a good barometer of where the team is

They’re going to lose to Sacramento. There’s no one guarding Sabonis and probably not Fox.

Yeah but again KD should've recognized that and been like "take care of my boys first, then I'll re-sign".

that’s easy for YOU to say in hindsight but given his age and the injury he was coming off of, it’s perfectly understandable why he signed an extension at the time

The max will always be on the table for KD while he’s around this age from someone, especially given how well he recovered from the Achilles.

Possibly, Sacramento is food on the other end too though

We know how to lock in. Good thing about Mike Brown is, he doesn't let the nonsense continue for too long. He will burn timeouts and sub guys out. Nets are going to get burned by Lyles, Monk and Off Night.

Can't wait for the Kings to feast tonight

They are but they at least have a set way that they play. I never know what I’m getting with the Nets.

Yeah Sabonis has been beasting lately. He just destroyed the Warriors and he was solid against the Lakers. He’s gonna abuse Claxton like AD did

 

[AJtheOne]

Ben seems aggressive tonight. Very engaged .

I get the feeling he just needs one great game and he'll get going and get his confidence back
