I honestly think part of it came from Harden's camp to drive the price down for him. He didn't want to end up on a gutted team. He wanted to be a Net without having the Nets losing anything that would jeopardizing his championship chances.
What I thought was hilarious was on one of his most recent podcasts he actually was giving Miami some **** for not trading for Harden when he was one of the most vocal dumb assess who kept saying he wanted no part of Harden and that he wanted to keep Tatum and Brown together.
i need to see james send giannis home. dude has been way too disrespectful to james for no damn reason. i feel like if the nets continue to start blake griffin they are making a big mistake.
Blake was a liability against Boston and got cooked when he had to guard the perimeter DJ got completely banished from the rotation and I understand why…he was so lazy during the regular season it was unreal I still remember when Giannis hit like 8 straight buckets on him…it was so embarrassing how badly he was getting worked
The Bucks haven't played against the Nets big 3 together. Nets in 6. Then a cakewalk in the ECF to the NBA Finals
Pretty much agree with this here. They probably destroy the winner of the west too unless the lakers somehow make it
If the path to a championship is deemed to easy, there may still be some haters out there who are unwilling to give him any credit. But for the most part, I think the narrative around his supposed inability to perform in the playoffs will be rewritten.
Losing LMA and now the Jeff Green injury are big blows. Claxton is basically their most reliable big and for all intents and purposes he's a rookie, and way too thin to bang with Giannis and Lopez.
Yeah, unfortunate they lost LMA. Milwaukee is going to be a problem, especially if they put Jrue on Harden instead of Kyrie.
Last time holiday guarded harden James had a 34-12-10 game in a Nets win against the bucks. The losses the Nets had to the bucks all were withy harden who I know confidently believe is the Nets best player
I can’t look at the nets play and then look at the lakers play and think the lakers have a chance of beating them.
The Bucks are gonna do their best to take advantage of Kyrie on D... The same way the Celtics did, but only they're even more capable of it... If Kyrie has a poor series offensively, then Bucks could win. I got Nets in 6.
