Feel good that the non jokic nuggets actually played like actual nba players for once. The warriors are just tough to beat especially when green can get away with so much on defence. I still think the Celtics can match up with the warriors very well and wanted to see a how a Thompson green tag team can do to slow down Tatum. Tatum is playing like the best player in the league right now against the nets, but a more disciplined team like the warriors or Miami may be able to slow him down which at that point brown and smart would have to step up.

Dubs look good right now due to the Nuggets being dog outside Jokic tbh.

Hope this all comes true, amb.

I’m just shocked that the nets suck this bad.

Also, rooting for the raptors to come back and win the series. I really want to see harden out choke himself and be the first guy to lose a series after you 0-3

NetsRef keeping Nyets in by fouling out Tatum with a super bogus offensive charge against Dragic flop.

Scott Foster
Stern Jr

Should have known Scott Foster was part of this garbage. LOL Nets

[baseline bum]

LOL Durant with the statpad three

Marcus Smart let him shoot because he knew Foster would blow the whistle

Posted this upstairs but better here.

Durant should request a trade tbh. You cannot rely on Kyrie to play more than 60 games and worst case he can find another excuse to not show up for half a season.

You certainly can’t rely on Ben Simmons, the most pathetic and mentally fragile player in NBA history.

Outside of those ‘Big 3’ the Nets have no cap room, no draft picks and a bunch of old washed up veterans.

Does Durant really want to waste the last 2-3 years he has left of being a number 1 option on that team?

Maybe he requests a trade to LA and teams up with Lebron. The Lakers can send fragile ass Anthony Davis to the Nets. Maybe the Clippers would be willing to ship Kawhi’s ass out of town also straight up for KD.

Sometning to keep an eye on imo

Boston is pretty stupid in end of game situations.
Ahead 3:
Smart going for that steal in the backcourt and fouling Durbetta to stop the clock while giving FTs is sub zero BBIQ.

Next they only need to dribble out the clock and Smart or Brown go for the hero layup and miss. Very lucky O rebound putback by i think Big Al.

Pop coaching tree?

Damn how much is Jalen Brunson going to cost Cuban this summer? Pretty sure he's unrestricted too so Mavs have no rights and can't lowball him.

He's made a few extra million just from this series alone

[Neo.]

if Jalen can play well against longer and better defenders in Phoenix, then it's definitely well earned. but if he struggles mightily again like he did against the clippers, then it's a bit tougher, but you still gotta pay him.

tbh as awesome as he's been, any good scorer should be able to dominate Mitc and Clarkson

[mystargtr34]

Brunson gonna get 4 years $100m I rekon.

I thought Utah was a solid defensive team. Why do all their perimeter defenders bite on shot fakes? Like out their shoes, they bite on pump fakes. And against little Brunson who's a midget?? Even their bigger wings bite hard.

gobert almost singlehandedly makes them solid defensively. he's just amazing, especially when Mitc and Clarkson are beyond pathetic. bojan is average at best, and Royce is slightly above average but kinda weak and getting bullied by Jalen and Luka. Conley has definitely fallen off defensively as well.

Two 6'2 guards in the back court doesn't help. Can't contest shots on the perimeter effectively, or mid range shots. If they don't blow it up in Utah they need to move Mitc to the 1 and pair him with a bigger 2 guard who can also handle and play make. Similar to what NO has done with CJ. Move on from Conley, he's washed.

What did Gobert do to Doncic lol Luka keeps talking to him and staring him down every time he goes near him.

Or is it just the general Rudy hate like the rest of the NBA.

I think he knows how mentally weak he can be and is just trying to break him

lol Philly lucky Barnes missed 3 games

Gobert had his usual pre-game fap and some of his juice accidentally ended up on a world map poster, on Slovenia to be exact.
