Well I wouldn't get too attached to the Nets, I'd say there's a decent chance one of Cam or Mikal isn't on that team by tonight.

Only if Pringles comes back to coach them and they pick up Dragic for one last season.

Not at all! Go SUNS all the way! I can cheer on Mikal Bridges and Cam but I do not want the Nets to be good

They should be a great defensive team. Simmons, Bridges, DFS and Claxton are all very good to elite defenders. Offensively they're going to be very average to below average.

Why? I could have seen them dealing O'Neale, Harris, Curry and some of the other guys (obviously Crowder), but unless they see Cam as a big injury risk and don't want to pay him, it seems they'd want to keep him.

I don't have time to follow another team as closely as before now but closest to a 2nd team would probably be the Raptors

Not so sure about that. Dinwiddie, Thomas, Bridges, Cam, Claxton could score in bunches - but then rebounding would be an issue with this 5. Maybe sub in DFS for Cam... Joe Harris or Curry for Thomas when he cools off and doesnt score 40 a game anymore - if that ever happens

They just have two good PGs, a bunch of good wings, and 2 adequate bigs (if you use Simmons as a sub at C). I see them in at least in the play-in with this roster pretty much every year. (Next 2 years, if they dont make any moves, but they will consolidate some of their wings, and let go of the ring chasing vets for a pick here and there for sure).
They kinda are my adopted team for now, I always had a soft spot for teams like this, and I love the twins.

They basically already were because hometown team, now I can just hope to bump into Mikal at a deli or somethin lol

SlovenianDragon · Post #16 » by **SlovenianDragon** » Sat Feb 11, 2023 6:23 pm

wonder if they are playing today

Hard to say, but Mikal remains my favorite player in the league so I definitely want to see him succeed.

Hope whatever drama caused the opinion of their super team members to sour was of the making of the super stars(guessing mainly Kyrie), and not organizationally dysfunction. It would really suck if they had to go from a Sarver team to another crapshow right when the Suns got rid of him.
