Trading for Harden ruined any chance at a title the Nets under Kyrie & KD had.

Reminds me of when Yankees fans chanted the same thing in 2018, only for the Red Sox to kill their team 3-1 in thr ALDS en route to a title.

As a basketball fan, KD is one of my favorite players to watch so it sucks seeing him out so early. I don’t give a crap about the rest of the Nets players and obviously I’m happy my Celtics swept that ass but still I can’t stand watching teams like the Sixers or hawks play basketball. KD may have sucked against the Celtics but he would have cooked any other team

I'm just glad the series ended tonight because I can guarantee that brothers would have been refereeing game 5.

I really wanted better for Patty, and I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Kevin Durant for his committing to Team USA for the Olympics. It was a monumental performance by him.

Perhaps that was what he was expecting, some version of it, but again, just goes to show that great coaching and systems designed for player strengths matter. And defense first matters. Hopefully Durant's more on board about that going forward.

Kyrie post game sounded like he was committed to returning. He has to get on board, too. Focused somewhat on media and noise. He and Kevin should REALLY work on tuning all that out. Like not pay it any attention, not give it any fire tinder whatsoever. AT. ALL.

Anyway, back to the foundations for the Nets, and I hope the stars buy in.
