i like reggie evans but lets keep it real
he aint about to see that much playing time behind blatch and humphries.
also having 1 great rebounder doesn't mean your team is a good rebounding team. ask the magic last year. dwight rebounded no one else did and they would up being near the bottom of the NBA in rebounds even though he as an individual was near the top. and saying lopez is average at worst on Defense is a huge compliment he is a well known liability on that end. I have nothing negative to say about D Will that dude is legit and if you guys happen to be able to pull it together all at once it will be because of him. but cmon son. your bench is good but not great. your starting lineup is borderline really good but not great. its also your first season in a new building you don't even know what homecourt advantage is yet. might be as many knicks fans booing as there is nets fans cheering. @ reggie evans being your solution.
In any case i'm not saying ya'll won't be a good team. i'm just saying its not gonna happen right away. good teams are already gunning for you and you don't even know if there will be any chemistry yet. this season you will be competing for a 7th or 8th seed at best. and if there is no problem next season you might work your way up to a 4th or 5th.
lets keep it real when we need rebounding we are going to put in the better rebounders thats what the coach is for
it doesnt matter if he gets no big minutes as long as his minutes are being put to use for what he is good for and avery is a playoff caliber coach so i wont be suprised to see him make some good decisions with the line up
either way blatche is at about 7 himself for reb so not a huge difference but if anything thats just another reason why we will be straight on boards not saying that is are best factor but we arent going to be lousy thats for sure
that years magic and this years nets share little to no similarities so why compare with them anyway?
and even though lopez has been underachieved at rebounds he really only has room to improve after coming back from illness and injury plagued seasons(that is probably the main reason his avg dropped too) so it doesnt matter if he isnt some rebound monster he plays pretty well defensively depending on the matchup besides that
if you think our starting line up is anything but great i think your underrating the players imo who got a backcourt that is really capable of running with the nets that isnt named the lakers or miami with bron at the 1 ? and our bench is solid period
this isnt the first season a few of our players have played together so it isnt some meet and greet experience and with a packed sold out arena of fans who all like i doubt they are going to have cold feet out there and knicks fans already said it themselves they want to see these nets prosper low key
the only way we wont be a top seed is if we suffer major injury or nikkas hate eachother in the locker room and if you think its a good chance of that i think your just a hater prayin for that downfall who is your team again?
I'm one of the few Hawk fans who think Joe will avg about 20 playing with D Will BUT thinking yall about to make real noise this season.
6th/7th seed imo
Bet the Hawks finish above the Nets in the final standing.
Knicks fans was talking just as reckless last season and yall see what happened..
You also the ones that gave him those 2 crazy contracts. That contract ain't a big deal for the Nets cause the Russian don't give 2 shyts about money.
look like a nikka made those jerseys in MS Paint.

You're not copping one?
For Wat?
To represent...?
I'm going have to send @NYC Rebel to teach you some Brooklyn pride. You're deficient in it and looking a bit anemic.
Breh those jerseys look like some old school fubu jump offs. Just cause they say Brooklyn you buying one???
