Tsai needs to flip McMahon a few bucks and get permission to film KD (Nash), Harden (Hogan) and Kyrie (Hall) in a Nets version of the NWO entrance video.

I love watching Bruce Brown, we need more players like him to fill out the bench.

Good.

edit: I see that they are now below .500

Honestly, I love how we endured years of abuse from certain fanbases on here and all of them are sucking our tailpipe exhaust right now.

Ahh, that makes more sense. Vonleh odd man out but worth keeping Shump and Roberson around, to keep flexibility for buy out/trades

That’s Hardens 6 triple double in 15 games. I think he missed out another three by 2 or three rebounds. Could have had 9 triple doubles in 15 games. That’s just insane

Liked the way all the new guys played especially considering they've been out of bball for a long time. Roberson and Shump bring legit defense. Clax looked a little tired out there but I think he can play a nice role here.

Hope the rest of the team gets healthy soon.

The Nets made an adjustment to use Brown as the roll man in PnRs, and he's doing a great job of presenting himself in the middle of the floor and using that floater and creative finishing ability in the paint.

Roberson should do the same thing. He shouldn't be camping out at the 3pt line when he's that bad at it. Just be the roll man that works around the rim.

Great taking care of business type win tonight. We punched them in the mouth early and pretty much controlled this one end to end. they cut took a lead once but we got it right back and even when they made it 1 possesion games it never felt like we would lose. last 8 minutes we demolished them.

poor shooting nights from kyrie and harden but both still produced. Harden obviously with a triple double and created a ton of offense. Kyrie did damage defensively and had 7 assists, 5 rebounds and a couple big buckets late. When these guys have "off" nights its what most players do on good nights. hard 30 point triple double and kyrie 22/7/5/3

Brown was phenominal. i know alot of it was defenses glued to kyrie and harris in the corners but he still needs to catch and finish over a rotating big. Deandre i thought played well for 90% of his minutes. needed more of him tonight with green out.

Claxon/Shump/Roberson all struggled a bit but its their first game back so cant really knock them. they all seemed to play with effort and thats all you can reallt ask for early on. I think claxton needs to be playing the 4 but we really have no other option backing up DJ. Nice to have TJ back, he hit some timely threes

not much zone tonight. maybe due to how much shooting they have but honestly we give up open threes without zone so still need to play it.

Not sure what the deal was with shamet. didnt see him second half. hit a couple threes. seemed odd.

king: brown
Knight: Harden (DJ honorable mention)
Jester: NBA for allowing fans back.

its a better vibe and creates energy but seriously... its complete nonsense. KD needs to sit 5 games because of some silly protocol. Kyrie cant swap jerseys with a guy he just played 40 minutes next to sweating and breathing on.... but we can have 300 random fans in the building, eating and drinking with masks off and thats ok?

and i dont want to hear some justification that "they got rapid tests" or "2 negative tests in 72 hours". its nonsense.

either actually try and be safe or dont. but dont pretend its about safety for PR and keep guys out of games and then have 300 rando's pile in. like what if we find out a group of those fans has covid?

Hello Brooklyn wrote:Claxton is so trash. I've frankly seen enough of him.


He isnt a rotational player on an NBA contender in my opinion. But they also are not doing him any favors asking him to be a rim protecting 5. You cant put a guy in a place were a weak piece of his game can be exploited. Same issue with claxton as green. 0 shot blocking and the opponent knows it. only at least green needs to be respected from three. one game from claxton so i wont beat him up on performance but we can probably do alot better
