Nets problem is the bench. They fix that watch out. Durant and Kyrie are good.

I feel like Brooklyn vs Miami should have been the opener..or Brooklyn vs Bucks. Not sure why they thought this horrendous Warriors squad would be a worthy matchup for a season opener.

Kyrie Irving is insane. Dude is already better there than he ever was for us.

Life is much easier when you have KD with you and shooters all over the floor. As opposed to a bunch of one on one ISO guys who don't know how to move the ball and are streaky shooters.

Damn the Warriors have like no good players beyond Curry, oof. Worse than I realized. Wiggins is unplayable, Wiseman is a rookie big who will take jumpshots for no reason, Chriss sucks, Paschall is OK. Oubre is decent.

Prince, J Allen, LeVert, Shamet and Jeff Green looks pretty good to me.

It’s definitely not as good as Teague, Pritchard, Nesmith, G Williams and Thompson :lol: :lol:

LeVert is worse than Wiggins somehow. Not buying the Nets when Kyrie and KD aren't playing.

Health the biggest factor for them with Kyrie & Durant obviously but that's a deep team.

They're beating the piss out of the Warriors, huh?

We meet them in 3 Days.

Looks like the 2nd Unit PG.

We have a lot of members that watch other games.
I wonder if we need to make an Alternate Thread, just for other games?

Though, this Thread seems to be doing OK.

Honestly watching the Nets, maybe they should pass on Harden.

They work well as a unit and are really deep.
