Nets are right there. Just too many defensive break downs. Can't win like this.

Example A force turnover turn it right back over for a CP3 layup.

Honestly I would take a Durant Nets team without Harden or Kyrie over a Harden/Kyrie Nets team without KD. Kyrie is great but something always happens with him.

Team is starting to get better despite these losses and I feel like the worst of this slump might be over soon.

Hindsight is always tricky, and I get why they made the move, but part of me can't help but wonder if the Nets would already have a chip if the Harden trade didn't happen. LeVert was looking healthy and solid at the end of last season, basically 23/5/5 over the last two months (25 games). And of course Jarret Allen is great on both ends, and in particular against Milwaukee his rim presence would have been a major positive for them. Prince is a decent rotation piece, he wouldn't have provided a ton but with Harris shooting as poorly as he was it would have been nice to have another option. Also spot KD a couple of minutes considering he was playing like 45 every game.

Then again if Harden was healthier, or Kyrie was playing they likely would have won anyways. So it's not like I'm saying the trade is what made them not win lol. The Harden situation was a weird one. He was hurt, but healthy enough to play 46 minutes a night over those last 3 games.. He just wasn't really doing much, that was a weird scenario to watch at the time. It was a hamstring injury but he was shooting like his wrist was broken lol.

Re: 1/25 - 2/7 Games Discussion Thread

These league pass timeout shows during the breaks are so much of a mixed bag. One time there was a chick jumping off this balancing beam, some other time at a Grizzlies game, some dude was dribbling six basketballs. It’s bizarre seeing some of these for the first time.

I guess it is kinda funny to see the people fail hard at half court shots at halftime or dudes that can’t even make a free throw.

For all the talk about the draft and the top players. We don't talk about Zarie Williams enough.

JJ jr leading the league in blocks? Since when?

I'm just happy he's not getting into foul trouble every single game.
