If we had drafted Wiseman, it'd be time for "the talk" right about now

Shooting 41% from the field. Forum would be in meltdown mode.

LaMelo is going to be so good. If he reaches his potential it is always going to irk me that we had the opportunity to trade up for him and didn't

Could anyone here explain to me why ESPN isn't ripping the Nets a new one for starting off the season mediocre? Where are the Stephen A.Smith and First Take videos of them talking down on the Nets? Didn't they make such a big deal about the Nets being a contender after the summer of 2019?

Their first game was elite basketball and Brooklyn barely squeezed out a win. I'm happy for ATL.

i saw one play lillard just drove past him like he wasn't even there. lillard is a great player so no shame in that but i couldn't help but think mitch would have at least had the quickness to contest that shot. :lol:
