I’ll be shocked if the Nets don’t get bounced in the play in.

Brooklyn's team defense this game is pathetic. Wide open layups all over the place

Possibly controversial opinion: D White has been Boston's third best player this season

When the national TV schedule came out the Nets were barely on it because KD had demanded a trade. Then he un-demanded it and they added a bunch of Nets games. Then he demanded it again and bounced to Phoenix.

Wtf is even the point of keeping Bridges or Cam Johnson. Might as well trade them away for picks and fully embrace a complete rebuild.

Look as bad as Chicago has been this season, they deserve the final play-in spot over Brooklyn.

ESPN really should be able to change the games they play. From playing Suns/Thunder without KD & SGA instead of the double OT Clippers & Kings game last week to playing this game over Knicks/Heat tonight.

They flexed that suns/thunder game thinking kd might play....I think because ESPN had Boston all-access this week, they weren't going to change it.

No im legit asking what is Mazula ball. Because it seems to be an emphasis on just shooting a lot of threes. So basically 80% of the league if not more.
