Guards like to think bigs only get points from tip-ins and alleys :mjlol:

Even a fukking stiff like Meyers Leonard can eat if you put some 6'6 guy on him.

Also:



How the fukk do you forget that Trae Young is at the 3pt line. Drummond is a fukking idiot and I love how only KD came out to contest while 4 fukking stiffs stood underneath the basket.

Everybody knows Drummond is a low IQ basketball player. Otherwise he'd be getting paid heavily. Nets will ditch him just like the next team that signs him.

They messed up not getting defensive wings while Mitchell was on his rookie contract.

Ehhh defensive wings are hard to come by to the point that a lot of other teams in the league are looking for them as well. It’s exact reason why Toronto could get a boatload return if they choose to move one of Siakam/OG in the off-season if they chose to do so.

If the Nets see Charlotte in the play in they don’t get 2 chances it’s one and done and if they lose that game and knocked out of the playoffs man listen the absolute slander that’s going to come Kyrie’s way :picard:

Is Ben Simmons going play in the playoffs ?
That's the question. Without him, the Nets are what they were at the start of last season, pre-Harden trade: a .500 team that will put up 120 (80 between KD/Kyrie) but will also give up 120.
Nets' defense takes that fear level down a ton & add on Nash's coaching capabilities:picard:

Bucks probably praying they get them in the 1st round

Yea, I mentioned it a few weeks back after watching them play the Celtics and Grizz, tho i'd wanted to see a larger sample size.

But at this point, KD putting up 40+ doesn’t hit as hard when Tatum knows he can drop 50 on the Patty/Seth/Kyrie switches, basically shooting over chairs; Trae knows he gon have those same guards in foul trouble; and teams in general kno they can go on extended runs and put points on the board with BK powerless to stop them.

Play-ins could go either way: they may have historic shooting performances where everything is clicking in back-to-back routs... or as we've seen all season, something goes wrong (pick anything) and KD finds himself facing a 4th qtr deficit vs a scorching hot team.
