Re: GT: Nets @ Magic 7:00pm 3/15/22 (YES Network)
It's crazy how 76er fans are still obsessing over Ben (they have an entire thread dedicated to him and talk about him everyday).
Meanwhile, Nets fans are happy that James Harden is no longer here even if it means that Ben will take a bit longer to hit the court. We love Big Dre and Seth too.
Funny. You'd think they would move on already. But i guess after we exposed them as frauds on national television they need to cope somehow

Yeah i don't think KD is one of those cats that care about clothes and what not when coming to hoop. He and Joe Harris are probably the two guys on the team that don't care about any of that stuff.
People were ripping Jarrett Allen about the same thing at the Allstar game. It's refreshing to see guys just being comfortable with who they are & the money not changing them, nor dressing like they're begging for attention. Hopefully a little of that rubs off on Ben.

No, Craptors have to tank for us to get 6 and that's not happening. LeVert is back and Cavs won, so 7th seed is not obtainable either.
Crap! I was hoping both would lose most of their remaining games.
Forget being anything but the 8 seed. We need to root like hell for Toronto to pass Cleveland, and for us not to fall to 9 or 10.

The thing is, no matter how good you are if a young team plays hard and you dont show up anyone can beat you. and the walk it up, sleepwalking in transition Harden Nets of 2022 where a team that opponents knew they could play hard and beat.
Between a dogging Harden and incompetant Nash no team feared us even if Kyrie was playing too.
The Nets with KD/Kyrie vs. Harden/Kyrie are night and day. both should have been near unbeatable.

If you're looking for a guy to build around, a franchise guy it's gotta be Harden all day. You put the right role players around him in the Dantoni system and you're going to be a mid to high tier playoff team. Hes consistent and durable, you can count on the guy (as long as it's before the 2nd round of the playoffs)
Is this still the case with harden though? He missed most of last season, he missed half the playoffs, and he has been out of shape/lingering injuries all year. I'm not sure he is going to be an iron man moving forward and i dont think he will be able to just play himself into shape at 34+ years old.
Hardens game likely doesnt age gracefully.

This.
Need to stay at 8 so we have 2 shots to advance and not 1.
And we need cleveland at 7 not 6 so we have Kyrie for that first game.

Special shout out to Bruce Brown for another great game in which he led the team in ASSISTS (8) with no turnovers.

I'm gonna be honest, one of the happier parts of Kyrie's 60 is not seeing Deron's name as franchise leader for points in a game.

I mean, I have no issue with what people want to wear. if you want to dress flashy like Ben does, cool. Ben rocks some really dope outfits and wears nice jewelry. That's how he gets down.
I just found it absurd for people to rip Jarrett Allen for what he was wearing.
dude looks comfortable to me. that's all that matters.

Word. Some guys just ain't into all the flashy clothes or jewelry. Keeping it simple just they style. Dr. Dre is the same way and his worth a billion

Bruce Brown is being worshipped as a god on fantasy basketball social media too

I don't even think Joe pays for clothes he's always in Nike t-shirts and hoodies.
LMA is also a pretty low key dresser by NBA standards. Patty also (that's the Aussie side of him)

Somehow I doubt it. Ben is a Kardashian dating diva, that's ok as long as he shows up on court.
I feel there will be a day when we will turn on Ben. He's burned bridges with both the sixers and Australian national team. He is young enough to change and if Patty takes him under his wings I'm still optimistic he can learn to be a good team player.

I forgot who said it but one of the players said that they've never seen Joe wearing anything outside of a pair of sweats and a hoodie
