Honestly the Nets should have just kept Jarret Allen and packeged their other pieces (LaVert, Prince, Vezenkov, picks) for quality role player depth. They also never should've given away anything to bring on DJ's dead weight

Had they not gotten so greedy for star power, they'd have probably won 1 or 2 chips (instead of Milwaukee and/or Golden State this year)


I really like Allen he is gonna go 20/10 next year I think

He is the young center you want right now besides Ayton and Stewart and Ayton is just hyped up right now because he is potential FA

seems good now but when it happened everyone and their mother would take James Harden at that time to play along with Kyrie and Durant for that. when you already have DJ.

They're about equal talents but I'd give a small edge to Dame for being clutch even w/o riding LeBron's coat tails.

The major differential is the fact that Lillard actually wants to be a full-time basketball pro. The vaccination exemption is just Kyrie's latest excuse because his heart isn't really in the game.

Kyrie is looking for one last pay day before he calls it.

Crazy to think the man who said basketball just isn't that important to him anymore cares about the amount hes making then lmao be a part time player bro.. He's such a joke. Talks like hes a great and that all he has to do is show up and ball when he wants but just got SWEPT IN THE 1ST ROUND with KD as his teammate..

Hope nothing but basketball failure & misery for the man lol..

When it comes to KD, I hope this shows to everyone he is not on Curry-esque plateau when it comes to all time greats.. This disaster that has been the BK Nets the last couple years with the arrogance they have displayed is just embarrassing & now may end with NOTHING to show for it.

Sell the Nets to Seattle or Vegas please. KD can still rewrite how he's viewed but he needs to choose his next step carefully. He can't just team hop to a stacked roster and get any credit. Either needs to reform the Nets to make it work or go somewhere like OKC or Cleveland that has plenty of growth potential.

Dame is def an upgrade, he's not a headcase like Kyrie.

2 Iso (de facto) SG's that have never won anything but a basketball highlight for a week. Kyrie had to get carried by Bron to barely win 1. Don't see how that'll go from Swept in 1st round to NBA chips.. Teams founded around ISO players almost never win.

Can't really think of the last ISO Superstar centered team to win a chip.. Kobe is the only person that comes to mind but he was a fairly underrated passer & Phils Triangle is a cheat.

Kyrie is the better pure basketballer though, and it’s not close.

What? Kyrie was amazing that series. Granted LeBron was slightly better for sure, it was way closer than just Kyrie being carried.

Everyone quickly forgets.
