Let's just trade everyone and tank for Victor.

Lol......do we even have our own pick?

........oh.

Ok now I'm depressed

at the moment, the only chance is if Philly downright **** it up, piss poor record and wins the lotto.... we have their pick.

**** it, whoever wins the #1 overall, trade Kd n Ky to that team for the #1 pick LOL

Korver no longer works here.

LOL is right.

There is zero possibility that anyone would give the Nets anything good for KD, let alone Wemby, if they had to take Kyrie in the deal.

[MGrand15]

Get it done Marks.

Look at this quote from Blake Griffin on the Celtics

"The intensity level and maturity level of this group is off the charts. Every day when we get to work, it’s intense … These guys are locked in and nobody has to tell us to be locked in, and that's refreshing."

KD and Kyrie should be embarrassed.

Seriously, for Blake to say this says all that I need to know about both of them. Tatum and Brown are younger than they are and 1000x more mature as adults and men, there's a reason why they have gone farther as a duo than KD and Kyrie ever will.

I'm honestly ready to check out on this team and preseason isn't even over. Nash is terrible, and we have no leaders.

Actions speak louder than words and Harden got the hell out of here once he had a good look into the inner workings of Netland, even at the cost of possibly $100m guaranteed. We are like the anti-Spurs, no culture, no system, no leadership, just KD and Kyrie hooping like they're on the playground. I'm sure Ben will be just the one to speak up against it though

Having said that, **** Harden

If I understand correctly, Simmons used to shoot with his natural hand (righty), but hurt his wrist and decided to go lefty, which turned in to a permanent thing.

Seems to me the Nets have a big opportunity here to try to persuade Ben back to his natural hand and 'start over' to some extent. Because trying to fix his lefty shot is evidently not working, regardless of shooting coach.

Ben is 26 years old. he's not going to change at this point, imo

[MrDollarBills]

Not much enthusiasm for tonight's game on here...

You are incorrect. Ben's father forced him to switch hands and become a lefty:

"In 2016, Simmons told Kevin Armstrong of the New York Daily News that he grew up using his right hand, but that his father was insistent on him developing a left-handed shot and handle on the court. “I think I was supposed to be right-handed,” he said. “It's all natural now.”Jun 21, 2021"

[ShulaDon92]

I would have fired Nash already. Should have kept DAntoni.

[3pt_chucker]

Ben looks so much better this game. Imagine what it looks like mid season when he's truly comfortable

I could be wrong, but after trying a dozen different streams the past half hour+, I'm wondering if my ISP has started blocking them.

This could get... interesting.

[MrDollarBills]

Not a bad 1st half. I love what Ben brings to the floor, but i think he absolutely needs to start driving to the rim

[MrDollarBills]

I like some of the off ball action with Claxton, setting screens for Kyrie away from the rock to open things up.

Simple action yet super effective due to the gravity KD draws.

[MrDollarBills]

Claxton looks so good. This guy is locked in. That money has him eating and living good

[MrDollarBills]

That lob to Cam from Ben was nice. We look a lot better tonight on both ends

[MGrand15]

I'm back on the train after that first half.

[Stone]

Sounds like Frank Isola is supporting Steve Nash. He said he did not agree with the fans booing Nash at Practice in the Park on Sunday.

[Stone]

We are definitely showing signs of life. Ben10 with some beautiful dimes. Nic looking serious
