You know why bad teams shoot better against the Nets than their horrid season averages?

I love Kyrie but he’s not durable. I kinda don’t want him consistently forcing the issue and constantly drawing contact, at least not until the playoffs. We will definitely benefit from Kyrie’s elite omnidirectional creativity in the playoffs when tougher defenses will clamp down on the north-south drives/activity.

Maybe this is what Marks envisioned when trading allen he knew what they had in claxton and didn't want to fight to keep him during the deal and maybe the rockets or cavs try and force claxtons inclusion

Claxton is an PF on the defensive end. Offensively he’s a mini AD, hasn’t popped yet but fluidity is crazy.
Kyrie is having a run of offense that hasn’t used the PnR I wonder if he’ll get back to it.


This team as it is a chip favorite. We will be adding mMLE and draft picks from now on. Thinking we won't pay Din or trade DJ just make most targets for jokes later on. This team has an owner who's willing to spend. Top 3 richest owner, CCP money here.

I thought I ain't had to mention the fact Tsai was select few owner who paid Vendors their salary fully during pandemic. He's on a record to say he's willing to spend, yet we still have fans who doubt that.

Absolutely tough shot making is made for the PS. With spacing and the mandate to give up the midrange it’s what you can’t take away.
But I’m not talking foul drawing in throwing himself in the air I’m talking the Trae/Luka style. Well before launch seek contact and aim for a low impact continuation.

In fantasy? Was 3.900, now 4.200 stack will be rising. Brown went from 3.500 to 5.400 I think or something like that.

Nah, just a point total over under. If he was listed, probably would have been super low, like 8.5 as well.

I said some time ago that San An haven't been drafting great as they used to. I really wondered if Marks was that guy who did that work for them.
Before selling team Prok, Pavlova gave us a great gift in Sean Markd. Its sad that D.Will experiment failed because Joe was balling and was giving it to Miami during PO, we really needed D.Will them days. Well, whatever it was exiting for some time.

This should be a 20 point game. No idea how we scored 67 lol. We turned it over 9 times that half. Felt like we were scoring at will but also being super sloppy.

Clax doing things. Completely clamped down on the perimeter. Houston got scared of attacking him after awhile :lol: Effortless 12 points in 7 minutes. His ball handling makes him a problem if you trap Harden and he catches it going down hill. Can't wait to see how he plays after the all star break. Conditioning wise, I think this was his best game so far. Only gonna get better.

Don't think that's the point he's making. He's saying he hopes DJ is off the roster so there's no threat of him seeing the floor and to open up opportunity for Claxton.

No more desperation for another BIG

We had him (Claxton) all along, we just needed to wait for him to get healthy.

Now we can wait for a nice buyout piece if it happens, or trade Dinwiddie, but ONLY if it really gets us back a rotational player who can help us win a championship. But Claxton has removed any feelings of desperation.
