This is unbelievably talented team that has very questionable coaching. If this coaches can at least be serviceable, we in contention.

This team is so fun to watch without Nash.

This bum literally can't score without committing an offensive foul

Man, give him his props, he's good. He is Siakam 2.0. Above average 2nd wheel in making.


That was the most impressive game I've seen Barnes play, I never liked this guy since he plays like a garbage man but craptors fans hype up like hes off limits even in KD discussions. His face also rubs me the wrong way, enough so that it got me banned from the craptors board.

But credit to him tonight those were clutch FTs he hit. I still think he's unskilled but you can't teach his measurements and the clutchness he showed. We still made it way too easy for him though, he went what 4/4 in the 4th just doing basic straight line drives after a routine switch onto a small. We did nothing to adjust at all, get Clax in there and he's probably going 1/4

Barnes is that 2nd wheel in making, don't get that twisted. He is that Siakam, Brown and Khris of todays NBA. Above average who can win a ring for you.

Great team win. I hate to sound petty, but I thought the raps got a lot more favorable calls.

Congrats to Nic Claxton on a career high 6 blocks. He also did a lot that does not show up on the stats.

How about Yuta......17 important points. That three at the end of the forth was a godsend.

It was our defense in the second half that made the difference and everyone was involved but I thought Ben really put the pressure on them and that was how we erased that 10 lead.

Lets Go !!!!!!!!! what a game !!! Kyrie clutch !! That's wtf I'm talking bout ! The refs really tried to make Nets lose lol idk what it is but the refs definitely got something against the Nets. Bogus technical called on KD, they really gave Barnes like 10 free throws in the 4th quarter smh disgusting refereeing today and as always against the Nets but we still prevailed .

Claxton is a legit shotblocker , dude swats literally everything ! Nobody is dunking on him. O'neale needs to make his shots. Yuta was killer today, that steal and dunk he had was awesome and he made some timely 3s #BkGrit. Warren is so awkward but his shots go in lol. This is what I'm saying about Seth, he's too hot and cold he didn't give us anything today. KD and Kyrie is per usual. The refs were really trying to get into KDs head it's ridiculous.

Barnes is really not that good and it's laughable Raps really said he's untouchable. He's ugly af lol I'm sorry but he look like he's on the spectrum :lol: . It looks like he regressed and I much rather OG Anuboy then him. All he does is post up and all those shots were brick. The refs helped him in the 4th so much. Well we got the season sweep on these fools. F**k Toronto !!!

The refs were cooking out there. Did their best to keep Toronto in the game but they couldn't stop us in the second half.

Kyrie opened his third eye on that last possession. FVV had no chance. Beautiful shot. Nice to see a final possession go as planned.

Great stuff from Kyrie, KD, Ben, Clax, and Yuta. 1st quarter sucked and we could've closed better but the game was pretty impressive. Some good chemistry out there. We're definitely finding our identity. Our depth is starting to show.

Cant and1 this post enough.

Barnes got an ugly game and uglier face, ugly attitude from what I see from him too. Imagine looking at that mug 82 games a season, I mean KD isn't a male model but cmon now

They have to rescind that KD tech right? I think the guy already has like 10 techs so we can't afford a suspension...

Chemistry is probably the best it has been right now the entire KD/Kyrie era.

Were playing smart and making good decisions. This will pay off in the long run.

This version of Kyrie is the player we always wanted. I just hope he can stick to it without any more drama.

Let's hope we can keep it up vs Detroit. Without Cade it should be a win on paper.

What’s the deal with O’Neale ? He’s either hot like fire or got 0 games

Most of you said he’s upgrade over Bruce Brown , I don’t remember Bruce ever have less impactful game Oneale had this game , or O points game

Overall good win , but O’Neale can’t have this kind of games, poor defending, 0 points , he’s liability anywhere you look

They are after KD this year. He's gotten horrible techs on him and today was ridiculous. They don't want him to have any reaction in the game like a robot. He can't even celebrate without getting a tech smh

Joe Harris should start ahead of O'Neale. He moves better without the ball and obviously is a better shooter, which is needed when you have Simmons and Claxton together in the lineup. I don't think it's a big downgrade defensively either.

Maybe you’re right , problem is Joe is inconsistent himself a lot , sometimes he almost look like vintage Joe , the next game he is just pop pop platter

The same could be said about Patty and Seth , I don’t think I ever saw 4 players being so inconsistent on one team , it’s almost like a lottery every game with those 4

Joe has been good in the last 10 games or so, he needed some time to get back to form. He gets better shots when he plays with starters.

Give Royce some time, i think he's going through something personal. We know he can be a knock down shooter for us.
