After so much panicking by fans over every loss, the Nets will most likely be the 7th seed. Team is fine.

I don't wanna hear about Ben Simmons. Bruce Brown has turned a corner

100%

Remember earlier in the season when Clax and Bruce were both in the doghouse for no reason and we were getting destroyed by every good team. I do. Have to love Nash's rotations

Nash literally does nothing for this team. Most of the player breakthroughs like Bruce or Kessler are due to necessity and not coaching

Only if the Nets lose against the Pacers but no way that happens. :lol:

Nets win and they are 7th no matter what.

Only question is it the Hawks or Cavs.

We need to win Sunday, and then again on Tuesday

The playoffs have already started

I rather face Cavs again , Trae is scary player sometimes and they leading the Heat atm

I am rooting for the Heat hard. If I am the Nets I am would rather play Cavs on Tuesday. A Hawks win tonight pretty much guarantees a Nets vs Hawks matchup

Heat won , nice

Post game they mentioned that all 4 7-10 teams have an afternoon tip. Philly & Boston have night games, so if Milwaukee wants #2, they have to win. If they don't care whether they are 2 or 3, then they could rest players against Cleveland.

Good win but not ideal to play KD and Ky that many minutes.

Nash must be on drugs for still not playing Blake Griffin a single minute. Do we really think hes that useless? Wed rather run everyone else to the ground?

He was trash before Ramadan too. I don't think fasting is the reason.

Sucks for Bembry, especially him getting injured, but it feels like we traded bruce brown and bembry for BRUCE MF'n DOWN TOWN BROWN. He's a swiss army knife.

Great to see tight, sensible, playoff rotations. Kess plays with a lot of bounce and energy. Still raw, but does a lot.

Skinny body = hard bones. He could have gotten knocked unconcious

Not just the hard contact either, the point of contact near the temple and then the whiplash. That was a proper shot. He wasn't playing possum. I've got a lot of love for this Cavs team, it's a sibling roster. Wish them nothing but health and progress.

Don't really care. Like KD said just toss it up and play ball

A few takeaways

- that was a playoff type rotation today. Positive sign to see no LMA minutes, this should be our actual playoff rotation plus Dragic.
- when KD is locked in, we actually aren't bad defensively. The man is a miracle worker since he single handedly makes us respectable on that end. I can definitely see some KD at the 5 in stints in the playoffs when we need scoring. And if by some miracle Ben is back, we can give teams some fits defensively.
- Kyrie needs to pull his finger out. Doesn't matter if the shots not falling but I don't like the early shot clock pull up 3s and fadeaways. We also need more intensity from him defensively and on the boards.

Pay this man his money

Where would we be without Bruce Brown. Pay him. He's so much better than he appears on paper , dude knows how to play

Joe Tsai is going to have to suck up that luxury tax bill. Brown and Claxton both need to be extended.

Bruce browns turned corner is still Ben Simmons on a bad night. if Simmons is healthy he is a top 20 player and the leagues best defender.
