All Things "Brooklyn Nets" Thread

That ESPN list is pure trash. Melo being at 17 off one bad injury proned season is a joke, Rose has a bad injury proned season and somehow is better than Kobe and Wade's season? There is no way Westbrook is better than D-Will.

Top PGs:
1. Paul
2. D-Will
3. Rose
4. Rondo
5. Westbrook

But again, ESPN is a joke in general.

The true Top 10 players in the league today are:

1. LeBron
2. Durant
3. Howard
4. Paul
5. Kobe
6. Rose
7. Wade
8. D-Will
9. Melo
10. Love (stats)/Rondo (stats via system + wins)

You can debate on that 10th spot simply because Love has everything but wins to make him a Top 10 official player while Rondo's stats are a product of his team. But again, ESPN isn't going to be logical with anything they do.

In other news, Jay is being awesome:

No it's not. This is like comparing Antawn Jamison to Kevin Love.

I agree the ESPN list is jokes, but you can debate every spot on their list and yours outside #1.

Hell my ten cause fist fights:

1. Lebron
2. Dwight
3. Durant
4. Wade
5. CP3
6. Dirk
7. Deron
8. Rose(take him off til healthy though)
9. Kobe
10. LaMarcus Aldridge
11. Love

LOL, Chicago replaced Rose with CJ Watson and John Lucas III, and they went 18-9. You're just hating to an extreme right now.

Westbrook isn't on the level of other elite PGs (Deron/Paul/Nash/Rondo) in terms of setting people up, driving and dishing, etc., but he's not bad at all. He's decent...much like Rose. Seriously, there isn't really anything that Rose does much better than Westbrook. Westbrook is actually the better shooter and rebounder, and he's a comparable defender. Comparable scorers too. Rose is a little smarter in terms of running an offense and hitting teammates, but it's not that big of a difference. Rose is better, but by a little bit.

My top 10, for the hell of it...I'm assuming everyone is healthy:

2. Wade
3. Howard
4. Paul
5. Durant
6. Dirk
7. Kobe
8. Deron
9. Rose
10. Nash/Westbrook/LMA/Love

The V-neck is perforated on the jersey. I'm pretty confident that the ones you see are just mocks until the next update (which will be after the jerseys are released) fixes that.

Just remembered this game. They started throwing double teams on him and they still couldn't check him. If he's determined, he should be able to put up very good numbers against many teams this year.

LOL, it was never forgotten. I always quote to Mavs homers and Bropez haters how much he torched the Mavs in the first game he got starter minutes.

Last night, I was looking at highlights for different players on the team, and I just thought that I should check Lopez highlights. This was the first one to show up. While watching it, I was reminded of how dominant he was with his array of moves that game.
