I definitely caught a case of the ass from the Raps game. The whole KD thing, then the officiating and on top of that Ky gets injured.

We beat the Sixers last time we played them and Big J had a great night. Hopefully Dj steps up tonight we are going to need him. Just want to see our guys fight hard tonight.

So, KD was exposed to a team employee. His expected return? ironically against the Warriors.

We will have to see Houston harden for this to be even close given the disparity in talent. He needs to be looking for his shot every time down the floor. 45 points 12 assists 8 boards type game

Hey NYCE, you owe KD apology dude. The infected party was a Nets team employee.

If KD is sitting out due to possible infection, why is this game even being played?

The NBA is just making **** up as they go.

We all were right.

- KD has tested negative. The entire Nets staff and other employees has tested negative. The entire Nets roster has tested negative. The Raptors have also tested negative.

- Nets employee tests positive mid-game after first test during pre-game came back inconclusive, negative in the 2nd try and finally positive during the game for the 3rd one. 1pm ride results into false positives leading into nearly 7 hours later?

This is flawed testing. The league even pushed back start times to later hours to accommodate accurate testing for every team and it’s FAILING.

- KD was riding around with this employee without a mask three times.

So, he was irresponsible. However, the entire situation still is a huge issue with the league. KD shouldn’t have played at all, the game shouldn’t have been played if they felt like it www that serious or they let him continue to play. There’s no in between.

People keep forgetting that KD was only on the bench because he almost picked up 5 fouls. So, let’s assume he didn’t pick up any fouls and he’s on the floor when the NBA tells Sean Marks he cannot play anymore. What are we supposed to do?

Imagine this was a significant game for the standings or seeding and we get to a 4th quarter situation.

KD or any other NBA player could be booted off the floor because of a late resulted test while they have already physically touched up against everybody? That’s not fair in any league.

Starting Five:

Harden / Joe / TLC / Green / DJ

Kyrie will be back on Tuesday.

BTW, tonight is the perfect night to throw out some new guys for an injection of energy and experimentation.

Hearing Steve has no real intention of using Shump tonight again furthers my concern of his ass level coaching.

I’m not sure even sure we will see Pelle tonight from the pre-game press conference.

Embarrassing.

Jordan just punished Embiid on that alley oop

TLC is so bad

MrDollarBills · Post #14 » by **MrDollarBills** » Sun Feb 7, 2021 1:17 am

So far so good.

Did any of you guys think Harden was going to be this good as a facilitator?

Yes, I've watched Houston play very closely. I never thought he'll commit on d like that. He showing above average d even though stat don't show it like that yet. Eye ball test shows me he's good to above average.

Celeb call is something I'll have to get used to.
