Yea that was a good look, but with Trae in the clutch the shots never goes in. His floater was the best in the game last year, but this year its been way off.

Same reason guys were linked to the Warriors, free ring.


No excuse for a healthy Nets team to not win it all...way too much firepower for any other team to overcome 4 times in 7 games.

So no NBA team has ever gone a whole game without committing a TO?

I see what you’re doing and it’s not going to work, sir lol

A month ago, it was “There’s not enough Basketballs”, a few weeks ago, “They’ll score 130 but give up 150” and now it’s a free ring because of a little win streak. NBA Fans are fickle so as soon as we go on a little slump again, those same takes will be right back.

Basically I’m saying that I ain’t listening or entertaining any of that “free ring” or “Nets are gonna win, there’s no way LeBron can beat them” narratives/takes, especially since we still have to prove it when it counts.

Unless there's some crazy deadline action, it's hard not to pencil in Nets/Sixers in the ECF right now.

The Nets have a ton of talent & the 76ers are dominant thus far, but I'm with Pack. I won't jump the gun on who'll make to the ECF or Finals out east just yet.

Health could play a major factor and Milwaukee still has the best player in the conference (and league) in Giannis. We'll have to see if a healthy Jrue Holiday can raise their ceiling come playoff time & if coach Bud is more willing to switch up how he uses Giannis.

Re: 2/23 - 3/4 Games Discussion Thread

I don't trust the 76ers whether they're healthy or not because for some reason they are an elite team at home but below average on the road.


If the Nets have KD, Kyrie, and Harden healthy, I don't see anyone beating them. It's just too much to overcome.

Yeah, "if healthy", and them actually having to do it goes without saying, lol

It's really not even so much about the Nets streak or the Sixers playing well as it is how 'meh' the rest of the conference has looked to me. I don't know if the rest of the teams have that extra level in them. MIL always has a chance with a superstar like Giannis, but I'm still wary of them in the playoffs.
