nikkas laughed when I said Brooklyn ain’t winning shyt with this current team

no D and no depth

I’ll take Boston, Philly & Milwaukee over them in the playoffs
I said that shyt to my Barber in Brooklyn and he almost zeeked me.

I need to go back there and talk hella shyt

It's going to be worse in the playoffs. These guys are struggling against play-in teams. And they're soft as baby shyt in the middle. When they buck a good team that knows what they're doing it's a wrap. They better hope they find a big that can do something when the buy outs start.

Their FO knew this though the day of the trade reports came out they didn’t want to give up Allen and were pissed they couldn’t get a 1st round pick for Shamet.

Even if the Nets upgrade their center position, their more glaring problem is their closing unit. Most contenders suffer if they have more than 1 defensive liability they have to rely on for the tradeoff on offense... the Nets basically have 3 (Kyrie, Harden, Harris)... which puts added pressure on Durant and Green to make big defensive plays to compensate.

A savvy playoff team is gonna just hunt Kyrie (or Harris) on switches to break down the defense and put pressure on the other 2 liabilities to make the right reads when the ball starts swinging to shooters and cutters.

And i know it's not gonna happen since they paid him all that cash... but if the Net's offense is gonna be that stagnant to close games, then they'd be better off with a defensive player in Harris's spot just so they don't suffer as much on the other end.

Smart and Kemba basically taking turns pounding the ball and shooting without getting anyone involved :scust:

This is when Stevens needs to step in and make sure these dudes run their offense

I figured the Jazz were going to win 10 in a row, especially with the Shaq bullshyt and TNT having their next coverage tomorrow

But i didn't know they were gonna get it with Donovan being out and so easily against a Dallas team that should've been getting their act together by now
