Kd getting slaughtered on the Gb.

Absolutely crazy that there are people who had Kd over Steph when they were on the same team and Steph was the one getting doubled and the defense tilted to him.

There's Warrior fans on here that think that way, so I can't even blame most people on GB, players, media and just about everyone else with that horrendous, farcical take.

Nets should fire Nash and add more 3 and D players.

Who goes to another team's board to complain about their fans? :crazy:

On another topic, Steven Adams now has a total of 31 minutes across the 4 games of MIN/MEM, despite the opposing team having an offense-only C. In those 31 minutes, he has 0 points (he hasnt taken a single FG), has 5 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 TO and 7 fouls.

In 3 games, Nemo has 44 minutes, 20 pts (8-14 FG, 57%) , 6 reb, 4 assists, 2 steals, 2 blocks, and 2 TOs... and half those minutes came against the reigning and likely repeating MVP

Shows you how grossly under used Adam’s is, against a Wolves team they should be spanking. We’d use him differently, and wouldn’t get outrebounded by wide margins. He’d make infinitely better.

Man he got so worked in game 1 that he's played about 7 minutes since.. he's that bad on the perimeter. I dont think he'd do much better here, except in a 10-15mpg role *maybe*

Here's the other side of the Adams trade coin.

Suddenly Ja Morant's Memphis is MUCH less dangerous in the middle. The player that gave the Warriors the MOST trouble other than Ja? Jonas Valancianas. He's a complete upgrade for Pelican's and Memphis has lost a Warrior killer in that deal. Jonas dominated the Warriors in last years series.

Memphis without Jonas are much more gettable by the Warriors.

Is the Celtics this good? Or the Nets just this bad? Who you got on a Celtics - Bucks round 2?

cupcake gets what he deserves.
Boston is the real deal, and i dont think we can beat them on full strength. their D is insane and Tatum is a superstar.

We have great defense as well when locked in, and advantage in Championship experience. Should be a good series if all are healthy.

we are not as good defensively. when we play the 3 guards its going to be like offense vs their D. Hard to predict who will come out on top

Boston looks good. They can win the East but it will be a grind going forward. Would be a tough matchup but too early to speculate.
