With Harden going to the East, its going to be even harder for guards like Beal to make the all star team

Myrie is in the the lolwoke category, but he at least admitted to being duped into the flat earth theory-- I give him credit when he earns it

Money or not, there’s no reason why a 25-year-old should be sending out statements like that. KAT’s suffered a lot in the past year and I can’t imagine what it’s like having to live with a condition that’s already taken away so much from him.

Do we really have a need for Isaiah Thomas though? It’s not like bench scoring from the guard spot is an issue right now.

Folks seriously doubting the chances of two top 5 players coming out of the East really speaks to how polarizing Harden is. Most ppl would think you were high on dog food if that scenario was true for another player

Good luck.
Well if they win a chip you can say there future was brighter than the Heat when they traded for KG and Pierce.

It's whatever to me, Honestly if Nets win the Chip it will probably be the emptiest feeling chip in history.

3 unlikeable guns for hire in their late primes join forces in a random location to ISO all the way to the chip. Good for them.

NY will still be a knicks town.

LeBron is more of a gun for hire than any of the guys mentioned. And if them winning a chip would be empty, I can't imagine what you called that Disney Land chip for the Lakers last year with no fans and no travel?

The funny thing is that the Nets team is not even that great, or comparable to real big 3's we've seen.

Kyrie has been very overrated since he won that championship for the Cavs, even though he oddly doesn't actually get credit for it. He is not even a first ballot hall of famer imo.

Harden is definitely a hall of famer, but has one of the most unadaptable games I've ever seen. Like it is very difficult to play with a player like him. HE will have to adjust his game, and there's no guarantee he will. He's also fat and sloppy as **** this year. He's going to spend most of the season trying to play his bad bodied ass back into shape.

So its going to be a huge challenge making it work, in ways it has never been for any other big 3 we've seen. KD is the only player on that team with pedigree and he's going to have to have impeccable leadership to make it work. That doesn't even get into the fact that he's the only one of the 3 who has played defense in his life. Other big 3's found a way to kind of be centered around defense, or at least 2 of the 3 be very good individual defenders.

Would take over them:

AD
Lebron
Kawhi
Giannis
Luka
Curry
