At least Harden loves the game and isn't scared to actually shoot the ball. 3 out of your starting 5 are head cases and that is a recipe for disaster especially if you guys go on a losing streak and start finger pointing. Ben won't like that

Then you guys add Markieff who was still doing dumb **** after coming back from Jokic pushing him. That locker room will be interesting.

Harden went to a party he planned on going to weeks in advance. I have no problem with that. If it was a repeat occurrence then yes it would be a problem.

You got 2 guys on your team who's love for the game has come into question several times (Kyrie & Ben). Kyrie might not even feel like playing some nights. Harden is the least of our worries if Embiid goes down because we will have Maxey who could at least pick up some of the offensive slack.

If Kyrie doesn't feel like playing a game, who is your second option to pick up the offense? Ben?


Lol, to get where he has Harden certainly has some love for the game but dude is about the lifestyle more than anything else. You can say the same about Simmons and I won't front because I'm not a homer...


What made you come to this conclusion? Please explain how Harden is about the lifestyle more than basketball?

Dude are you serious? he just parties every other weekend with rappers because he wish he was one. Him and lil baby is butt buddies :lol: literally .. these dudes giving each other 250k on their birthday like what, like how ? :lol: Harden doesn't care about winning a chip and it's evident, you will learn.

And I'm not sticking up for Ben because he's another entitled player but Harden ain't no saint either so stop acting like he is. He can't take the pressure. Like MDB says, when harden goes down, you will see the real him. He isn't that Houston player anymore going off for 40 plus points every night. He needs Maxey and Embiid to make him look good

Decent signing, you could do worse for your 12th man than Markieff.

Happy with the roster as is, but we need to convert one of our undersized shooters for a legit big man (who preferrably can shoot). Patty's intangibles are too valuable, so it'll have to be Seth or Cam that goes.

You're clearly projecting that Harden parties every other weekend. Do you know him personally? How do you know Harden wants to be a rapper? I have no problem with Harden partying during the off season or at times during the season. You're hoping he doesn't revert back to Houston Harden.

The fact that you're clearly projecting about Harden's personal life let's me know everything I need to know about you. I see why you're a Nets fan. You fit right in with Durant, Kyrie, and Simmons

Dude just go on IG, I'm not projecting, you can clearly see this it's public. IDC if he reverts back to old Harden honestly, I'm not a hater like you, if he does than he does, good for ya'll, I'm worried about my team. You should definitely have a problem with Harden partying during the season, especially if you have championship aspirations. you have the worst clap backs bro, get a life.

You're on the Nets board ****, **** off back to where you came from. Your takes provide as much value as a tampon to a grown man.

This is a very good signing. I don't know with you guys, but I really feel that this team is just a Myles Turner away from being a true elite contender.

I don't mind trading either Harris or Curry plus an FRP, but what would it take for us to get him?

All 3 Watanabe, Sumner and Markieff are non-guaranteed.

Not too excited with Morris - just too slow for this roster.
Blake would of been better - but Nash sunk that boat.
Watanabe is like a second Kessler - great for team depth.

Blake is washed. If Morris can get to what he was in the bubble, I think Morris is a much better fit and less likely to pout if he doesn't get mins.

Baynes still has to show that he can still play at a high level, the dude went through hell over the last two years.


Same with Morris, he got lots to prove himself.
