BK choked that last defensive possession, its like they just gave Brown the free lane to drive lmao. Kyrie deserved that win.

That’s just how insanely loud that building is right now. Can you blame them?!


The halftime interview with Nash was all garbled as well.

Didn’t the dude literally miss half the season out of principle? Maybe they’d be better than an 8th seed lol.

That's where I thought to myself, next year with Ben Simmons the Nets will be in their final form. They really need a defensive anchor. It was shockingly bad defense on that possesion, the most important thing was to make the Nets bleed time, the worst thing was allowing a free layup.

Right after a game isn't a good time to evaluate a playe overall.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

That Kyrie Iso attempt when you just needed to run the clock and force a foul was dumb

Funny how the guy that talked the most trash, Bruce Brown, played the most ass. Guy was such a liability on both ends.

5 points in 37 minutes. LMAO

"wiTH rOBerT wiLLiaMS oUt wE caN atTAck tHE paINt" - meanwhile, he would pass it back out each time he touched the paint. and boston attacked him on defense all night.

Great game. Nets missed their chance to steal one.. probably Celtics in 5 now. Kyrie is going to have trouble sleeping tonight and that's fine by me. He seems like a world class prick.

Kyrie left BK down by dribbling the heck out of the ball and expecting KD to bail him out by giving him the ball with just 3 seconds in the shot clock. He literally tried to ISO the entire posession.
