I'm sure you also predicted our two best players would be injured.

As if your prediction means anythings.

Do Celtics fans have to come and invade every Nets related thread?

Surely you're not calling LeVert a better player than Dinwiddie.

Because you're Belgian, you had a minor wording mistake he was teasing about. Victory Laps are a runner going around the track to celebrate. A lapse in memory would be a blind spot where you lost focus. Bonne journée!

Wow sensitive much.

I think both fan bases indeed love to bash the other one. I dont see a problem with that. This is a forum and every fan can post here. I was just wondering why you’d get this thread up as a Nets fan since you’re just a bit above average in the ranks at the moment. Barring injuries indeed but we also missed Hayward, Smart, Williams for significant amounts of time.

Dont let it become irrational man. As if there arent many many Nets fans lurking our forums or giving and1s to negative Saltics posts. It is what it is man.

Lol what?? you can't be serious. Dinwiddie is significantly better than LeVert. Better on both ends of the floor tbh.

Yah, I personally think that Dinwiddie is clearly better than LeVert.

I'd take Dinwiddie over Ben Simmons right now to lead a team.

Lol to be fair this thread was based on an absurd premise that the Nets role player were worse and that they needed Dudley, Carroll, Davis back. Who have all been awful for their new teams.

I don't think the point of bumping this thread was for Nets fans to gloat.

It was just pointing out an obviously flawed argument based on nonsensical advanced stats.

I love Dinwiddie, but hes still a poor 3 point shooter.

Maybe I'm just a Levert stan, but I still see him as the better all around player.

He was the only guy who showed up in the playoffs last year. Him being hurt has ruined his stock.

Well this was the premise of this thread, I literally copied it:

‘Adding Kevin Durant changes A LOT, obviously, but are the additions of Kyrie/DeAndre/Garrett Temple/Wilson Chandler enough to crack the playoffs in 19-20? Either way, we shouldn't act like they are the same playoff team that upgraded D'Lo to Kyrie. This is a very different team.’

With Kyrie you were 5-5 something if I’m right. Out of that list I’d say, so far, Temple exceeds expectations. The rest? Not there yet. So thats exactly why I stand my point that there’s no reason to bump this yet IMO.

Well the idea that were not making the playoffs seems pretty dumb to me so far this season.

Chandler?
Hasn't played

Jordan?
Has been very good by every measure.

Temple?
Excellent

Kyrie?
Was putting up 30 a game before getting hurt.

So what exactly was this thread trying to prove? That we would be worse than last year?

Compare this teams record so far to last years when we started out 8-18. Theres no contest.

Actually once they get healthy I think Kyrie and Din should play together and would thrive. The Nets struggled early more so because of just getting comfortable with each other but also Levert lack of shooting and poor defense hurt.

The role player argument was pretty awful then and still pretty awful now. Jordan, Prince, and Nwaba pre injury have all been great. They've actually been the reason for the defensive surge which got them back on track.

You got very colored glasses lol. As if there havent been any concerns with you guys this season lol. Y'all went 42-40 last year and won't end far from that. I got you at 22-22 end january. As a Boston fan I cannot say this though. Prok had us out of the play-offs too btw and we've had our shares of injuries too. Anyhow, we'll see at the end of the year, that's what I meant by not making victory lapS (lol) yet. Am I right with the English?

Nets have more talent than they are given credit for. They have dynamic guards, athletic bigs who can finish and protect the rim, and good 3 and D players. With Kyrie and LeVert back, they can beat any team in the east.
