Nothing at all to be excited about. We have nothing without Durant and Kyrie.

Derrick White was a sneaky good pick up for Boston IMO.
OKC Thunder fan, too.

These clowns playing without no pressure. It's a different story if flat earth creature or Ben playing.

This just ain't fair to us.

Y'all need to relax. Last thing the Nets should be doing is rushing players back this close to the playoffs. Let Ben play when he's ready. KD will be back for the Raptors game at worst. Kyrie is healthy.

Team will be fully healthy in a couple weeks(except Harris). Seeding at this point is irrelevant. Main goal is to be max healthy at playoff time and I'm fine with that.

Some can disagree, I think we going to get that 6th seed and play Philthy/Bulls.

The moment we get Dragic and KD hype will come through and role players will get more comfortable.

The team is built around superstars. Boston is an elite team on both ends.

Seeding matters if we continue to fall innthe standings and end up in a play in scenario in Toronto. We arent winning that game.

Game shows how badly the team needs Dragic to just be able to get the offense going. Curry and Mills are very limited as PGs

This is looking like it’s going to be the worst blood bath of the season

If KD and Ben are healthy and can't beat the Raptors, then the team isn't good enough for the playoffs anyway.

Yeah. I mean we can kick Nash's back in, but this roster right now is lottery level and has been for months.

I mean James Johnson is literally having to play a high usage role because he's one of the only guys on the roster capable of handling the ball.

We need this team at 100% to be Nash proof versus the Raptors. Nurse owns Nash.

I’m not really trippin’ honestly. Yes, the current Nets are playing some chitty bball, but when the real B unit is back, they better be locked & loaded,ready to battle for that play in game.

We just suck. Our best player is Seth Curry lol. A role player who is as prone to a cold shooting night as anyone else.

Man Patty Mills has been garbage though. Feel like he's bricking everything almost every game, after not being able to miss early in the season.

The Celtics would look just as bad without Tatum, Brown, Smart and Robert Williams....

Drummond needs to pick up his play if he really wants to be a starter. He's been putrid this game.
