Embiid doesn’t need so many 3s . He’s big and skilled enough foot 10-15 post up. Luka should of said nothing .. he can’t hit anything now

The Nets may need to trade Kyrie this season before their franchise falls apart. If they lose Harden, followed by KD, they're screwed. They need to try to salvage this season.

AG wasn't playing. When he doesn't play, players like Jaxson Hayes and Hubert Jones end up having career nights. Also, the Nuggets were forced to start a G-leaguer.

I wouldn't include Thybulle in a trade for Harden, his defense is something else when he's locked in

Might still be two of three if Harden is being shopped now and the Nets owner reportedly said he would not re-sign Irving to an extension. Lots of decisions suddenly need to be made that will impact the team short and long term.

Mavs 0/8 from the field since returning from the delay, missing some chippies too. Got used to shooting on the crooked basket I guess

The emergence of Herb Jones and moving Jaxson Hayes to the 4 has been huge. Coach has been great as well. None of that really possible without BI though.

Marks contacted Nash secretly months prior to hiring him. It doesn't at all seem like something KD or Kyrie orchestrated.

Seems like a move Marks really wanted to make and KD was ok with it.

KD has been honest about considering himself a business leader...why would he not be involved who coaches his basketball team when he was such a snarky guy with Kerr.

You think KD would have been ok thibs>...”practice makes perfect” and “defense first” planning or Derek Fishers “watch your girl” style ?

This. KD did not come to Brooklyn to simply win a ring. He did that already in GS. He came to Brooklyn to win a ring on his terms. Anyone thinking that he isn't the de facto GM on the Nets is a fool. KD hired Nash and KD traded for Harden after tampering and linking with him during the offseason.

He came to the Nets because he was tried of being in Steph's shadow and not getting any credit. Not to become GM.

Youre just making **** up.

?s=20&t=DScGEm_SpRQmYL5sUSy7fA This can’t be true … if it is the 76ers have no shot for harden

Ballerhogger · Post #237 » by **Ballerhogger** » Sat Feb 5, 2022 4:36 am

76ers are bad match up for the mavs

Not sure why Boban can't get any minutes against a team with the kind of size at the center position Philly has
