They are softer...because the Nets were the little sister in grade school.
But the media is equivalent to a bunch of creeps.
Today? The Nets are the younger sister that has..."developed". These nikkas can't keep their hot take erections in their pants.
What's better than trolling the Knicks? Fueling a clout cashcow soap opera where stories are purposefully pulled out of their asses to cause beef.
And best believe...the first time Durant or Kyrie gives a condescending answer to the NY MEDIA...
That'll be an interesting flip... believe me.
National media maybe but still not as hard as they would go at Knicks and with local media not even close. Just look at how D-Lo was treated, he was the second coming in Brooklyn even though he had a bunch of fukk ups and played like shyt in the playoffs. And as soon as he was traded to GSW everybody is calling him useless.
DLo on Nets was amazing to everyone but if he was doing the same with Knicks he would be just a chucker that plays no defense
I think Kyrie and KD especially made the right choice by going to the Nets, there will definitely be a lot less scrutiny. And Kyrie and KD are two of the most sensitive and emotional players.
One of the first questions RJ was asked at the press conference was how are you going to carry this franchise on your shoulders or some shyt
They'll avoid scrutiny, but they also won't get as much love and attention as they expected if Knicks are halfway decent. That dummy KD was shocked he didn't get as much love as Steph, he'll be for a rude awakening here.
