Act accordingly.

Only good post besides pasta on this forum recently is this one.

Need to surround that man with proper talent.

Any attempt at playing up in kyrie kd or harden ends in a flail and whistle lay off a lil bit and it’s a bucket just can’t play defense.

Was actually thinking how dope it would be with a series like this if we had Hayward, Brown, Rob and a healthy Kemba.

Sounds like a good reason to quit watching this dumpster fire.

Anything that gets in the way of that is not important. Even player development. Make the moves.

I'd argue we're missing Rob more than Brown in this one, no defensive structure inside at all

This is why you trade Brown for Harden… same reason the Clippers traded everything for PG. If youre able to stop an unbeatable super team from forming, take the **** shot.

This Nets trio is the second most talented team in the past 20 or so years. Arguably #1.

Time to sit JT and let the youngsters get some run.

Everyone knows I’m not a Kyrie hater, and I defend him quite a bit.

What a front running little ****, needs a hard foul STAT.

Best offense ever.

Whatever defensive scheme they are following is trash. And no it is not because the Nets are very good.

Celtics also have to get back to playing tough defense.

This year’s “I hope he misses” defensive was sickening

Ill News · Post #936 » by **Ill News** » Mon May 31, 2021 12:47 am

I'm more mad that they let Kyrie have a good game. The crowd should be cursing him every possession, why are they dead right now?

We legit could have kept Smart, with what the Nets gave up.

Kemba/Smart/Harden/Tatum/Tristan would be the best team in the East.

Just glad we didn’t get swept like the Heat and soon to be swept Wizards.
