Same here.

Since I had the entire week to digest this matchup, I’m optimistic that Brooklyn will bring the best version of the C’s versus a Chicago, Cleveland, Atlanta, etc.

Must see TV either way.

Stay sane everybody.

This is the matchup I wanted and asked for. And now 1 hour before tipoff….I am wondering WTF was I thinking?? Just kidding. I hope we get a great game!

Jaylen out here warming up alone. KD and Aldridge out shooting for the Nets. KD got booed walking onto the court by the small number of fans currently here. Handing out T shirts that say “Let’s do what we do”

Simmons just came out to major boos. He looks dressed to warm up but instead is just dribbling near the bench.

Just for the record, I hate Kyrie. Call that small minded if you will. It is what it.

I get nervous in a close game at the end.

Other than that, nah. Excited for this one though.
