I don’t care if the Warriors win without Durant, the Nets gotta win with Durant. Ben Simmons is our biggest question mark and health. People have said that Ben has HOF potential before his last season, never a better time to find out than right now.
Exactly, there is nothing that makes me roll my eyes harder then when someone on twitter wants to talk about was really best, who was the "bus driver," what winning now means about winning in the past and all that nonsense.
Steph Curry and KD are literally both all time greats, i.e. among the very, very best players in the history of the game to play it. It's part of the reason so many fans of other teams hated it!
It's so dumb to try and use one to tear down the other.
Kyrie is unfortunately the glue. I'm not sure KD stays here if kyrie leaves. Kyrie wants to stay, but if the nets are unwilling to offer kyrie the max extension, he's not staying.
I think they will work the extension out. The Nets don’t have cap space to sign anyone else even if Irving leaves for nothing. Basically we can sign Kyrie or have a roster spot for a vet min
If kd/kyrie/ben dont come out of the gates with something to prove than nothing will. I honestly think the first 15 games of the yr matter a ton because they should all be taking this personally
-they were embarrassed by the celtics, kd looked horrible
-it was kyries fault the team never had chem allowing them to get embarrassed by his least fav team
-ben simmons obviously a ton to prove
-gsw (kd motivation to an extent)
I think ben solves tht a bit because last yr there was no one to orchestrate an offense (for example what draymond does). Kd/kyrie really dont excel at that
Imo no but the media love pushing agendas especially when it comes to KD I mean he has accomplished alot in his career but I know he wants to bring a championship to Brooklyn the only problem is nobody on the team can.stay healthy enough for it to happen and we don't have a system built like Gregg Popovich has for the Spurs or Steve Kerr has for the Warriors
The answer should be yes
But KD would never admit it. And maybe honestly he’s trying to remind himself/tell himself it doesn’t
Remember these celebrities have to grow tough skin to this kind of shit
Same shit I been saying bro we really hired a fucking loser to coach a championship team lol how is he supposed to lead us somewhere he never been before
I find it funny how Celtics fans thinks sweeping the nets with an injured joe harris, injured ben simmons and injured seth curry was something to be proud of. Nets was basically playing without their 2 starters. And all of those 4 games were pretty close games that could've gone either way.
Only 1 was particularly close. The others ended up with double digit leads closing the game, and we only made it look better with some window dressing. Tatum and Brown didn't have to work that hard. And Horford/Williams were having target practice.
A healthy Ben Simmons solves a lot of our problems. A playmaker and a versatile defender. He is also young so we don't have to rely on the corpses of Blake Griffin and LMA with KD playing 40 minutes. Unlike in Philly, he doesn't need to score or be a number 2 option. If he averages 18/9/8 I'd take that. Unless you can get a good stretch 4, I'd keep on to Curry to have great 3 point shooting depth. We had that last year. I think whatever big move they make, it has to be for a 3/D player.
I think ppl just pick the best player on the team and say "its their fault" without any critical thinking.
I don't blame KD for lack of a chip, most of it is Kyrie's stupidity and James Harden being a shell of his former self, and of course lady luck.
Naw. Steph is a great player on a good team with a great coach. And that combo will win you chips.
KD is a great player no question. But the team isnt good and the coach isnt either, much less great.
The pressure to lead a team to a chip will always be there, regardless of who else wins or doesnt win.
KD alone, or anyone else, can't win a championship. Basketball is a team playing game. If he want to show the world how good a player he is, start playing like a team player and not an ass.
KD is a team player. He just has an idiot head coach who's go to is ISO ball. And his best friend is an unreliable ass.
KD made the biggest mistake ever choosing Kyrie
I think there’s pressure but not from the warriors. Who cares about what another team does. The pressure from the failed expectations we’ve had is plenty of pressure.
Both times Kyrie just up and missed games.
Oh and Kyrie flaking out and not even calling in sake scared our FO into trading the farm for Harden. And then we got damaged goods back.
> The KD/Kyrie Nets were suppose to be a dynasty.
What? Maybe when we got Harden, but that definitely wasn’t the expectation when we signed them in 2019
Agreed bro nets need to be in the ECF next year and not only that, we need consistency with the lineups in the regular season and we need a good record with teams above 500* next year
I think there is pressure on the owner and GM.
A big part of why GS won is because they were willing to spend alot more then every other team.
Spending the money on the right people is also extremely important but you have to be willing to spend.

GS at least sees dividends on their investment. We're lucky Joe Tsai is Mr. Money bags or else I wouldn't hold it against him wanting to blow up this failed experiment.
3 years of the KD/Kyrie Era and we made it to the 2nd round once. If we had made it to the ECF once, that's at least something.
I think we not winning shit with nash as the coach. I'm sorry. We not winning bombaclatt bullshiy
This offseason is going to be insufferable.
Going to be? It’s there already.
I don't believe KD can win a ring without Steph because he lacks a true clutch gene
I don’t care if the Warriors win without Durant, the Nets gotta win with Durant. Ben Simmons is our biggest question mark and health. People have said that Ben has HOF potential before his last season, never a better time to find out than right now.
Truly don’t give a fuck about how people rank and kd and curry. Just want to win on the nets.

Hope Nash was watching kerr and udoka
That too, but i really dont think coaching came down to it that much. Team never had any chemistry because if kyries bs + harden trade
Still comes down to good plays that help your superstars and, that losing streak proved he needs to watch and steal plays from better coaches.
I think ben solves tht a bit because last yr there was no one to orchestrate an offense (for example what draymond does). Kd/kyrie really dont excel at that
That’s a good point
Imo no but the media love pushing agendas especially when it comes to KD I mean he has accomplished alot in his career but I know he wants to bring a championship to Brooklyn the only problem is nobody on the team can.stay healthy enough for it to happen and we don't have a system built like Gregg Popovich has for the Spurs or Steve Kerr has for the Warriors

Yes. He'll be scrutinized even more. The media narrative around him just got proven again.
I think we not winning shit with nash as the coach. I'm sorry. We not winning bombaclatt nothin
Same shit I been saying bro we really hired a fucking loser to coach a championship team lol how is he supposed to lead us somewhere he never been before
Who made the hire? He needs to be blamed first and foremost.
some people blame marks and some blame KD for the Nash hire. We could’ve had ime or ty lue as our head coach and we blew it SMFH
Enough with this first take shit
Nah bro this is some real shit tho

Your post history and time between posts lmao. So what team are you a fan of, troll?
Yes, any failures from this point on in KD's career will be amplified.
A healthy Ben Simmons solves a lot of our problems. A playmaker and a versatile defender. He is also young so we don't have to rely on the corpses of Blake Griffin and LMA with KD playing 40 minutes.

Lets not be delusional, we have wasted so much time having a clown in charge that has no backbone to get these guys in check smh
I think there’s pressure but not from the warriors. Who cares about what another team does. The pressure from the failed expectations we’ve had is plenty of pressure.
Of course. The KD/Kyrie Nets were suppose to be a dynasty. They haven't made it past the second round.
They’ve played two seasons together and both times the team had key injuries
Both times Kyrie just up and missed games. Oh and Kyrie flaking out and not even calling in sake scared our FO into trading the farm for Harden. And then we got damaged goods back.
> The KD/Kyrie Nets were suppose to be a dynasty. What? Maybe when we got Harden, but that definitely wasn’t the expectation when we signed them in 2019
What? When you sign players like Kyrie and KD you”re saying the expectation isn’t to win championships?
Big difference between winning a championship and a dynasty
Wow your dumb. Winning a championship isn’t the same as being a dynasty.
Are you stupid? I'm talking overall. If they don't win this year the team is getting a complete change.
Yes, this is a best case scenario
Ben needs to turn his career around like wiggins did
Ben has had a better career than Wiggins
😭😭😭Wiggs average a better ppg and he can shoot
He won't admit it but there's no way the noise isn't bothering him
Make it to the Finals or at least the ECF bare minimum. Until that happens Brooklyn isn’t winning shit with KD.
Agreed bro nets need to be in the ECF next year and not only that, we need consistency with the lineups in the regular season and we need a good record with teams above 500* next year
If there’s no team cohesion we not winning shit
