He's the engine. They denied him as soon as the third started and all hell broke lose.
He has to really pick it up. Kick it into overdrive. He's missing those floaters he usually hits as well as those paint jump shots. Arc may be too high on some lol.
Next two at home. |

Nets already succeeded this season.
Playoff berth + win is more than anything that was expected.
With how much good publicity Brooklyn is getting around the league now a days, I can definitely see a big name signing with them this summer. |

Honestly their season was what I was hoping for with the Lakers this year. A team on the upswing. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

I just kept asking why LeVert wasn't in. Then he went on that run in the 2nd quarter, scores 14 in 4 1/2 minutes and Kenny benched him. LEVERT! |

caris struggled for the first shift and then dlo came in the game and caris started COOKIN
now that caris appears to be relatively healthy they need to share the court as much as possible |

I'm a Kenny fan but playing Levert just 26 mins and Russell just 30 minutes in a playoff game you need to win with Embiid out is inexcusable. |

Levert and DLo isn't exactly great imo...
Nets should choose which 2 of the 3 them want to keep moving forward betweem DLO, Levert and Spencer Dinwiddie. Team doesn't have a good balance overall |

Russell's honestly getting exposed here. He's a fringe all star and inefficient volume scorer who doesn't bring anything to the table on the defensive end. He's lucky to make an all star game in a watered down Eastern conference where there were injuries to other top guards.
As Laker fans, we need to let it go. Sometimes, I feel like the fanbase would rather support a lottery team with Russell and Randle, than a contender with LeBron James (not saying we have one yet, but...) _________________ (bleep) David Stern. |

Russell struggling in a new environment, only for people who have taken a serious L this year to finally have their opportunity to emerge from the shadows is as predictable as him taking the next step in a couple of years once he figures it out.
He's getting as "exposed" as Donovan Mitchell's getting. They're 22/23 years old. But y'all have always struggled with adjusting for age so why should this be any different? |

DLO always has been a slow starter... whether his first summer league, first season, etc.
I fully expect him to struggle a bit in his first postseason. If anything, hes been better than I thought.
The more experience he gets, the better he will be _________________ Llluuukkkeee |

DLO.
LeVert is too much of an iso player and kills the flow.
DLO is the engine for a much better offense.
Together though, I think LeVert gets in DLO's way sometimes, but if Im the Nets I keep both.
Tonight, Id like to see DLO get some time without LeVert.
Btw, how bad have Harris, Carroll, and Graham been _________________ Llluuukkkeee |

I thought he actually played a great game overall. Didn’t force anything. Just missed some shots at the rim, which he obviously needs to improve on and he will. They were good takes
He was out there making big plays and hit some huge shots. Also played great defense.
Box score watchers and people who already have made their minds up won’t see any of that though.
Hopefully he finishes around the rim better next game.
Carroll and Harris also can’t be that bad. |

Easily. Sometimes people need to put away the excel spreadsheets, even though I myself love the numbers. Shooting was off, but he hit big shot after big shot, and made huge plays. Other than one or two shots, all his shots were in the flow of the offense. Just have to hit better at the rim.
I knew Kenny was going to take him out for that last defensive stop, which I was fine with. That's how this season has gone. But the guy who he got replaced for in Treveon got out hustled and Scranton's own hit the three.
I literally have no idea what Treveon does well. He seems like a real nice guy and all, so it hurts me to say that.
On top of that, Carroll and Harris played like their own versions of Treveon, so there were three Treeon's out there.
Also in terms of who to keep in Caris vs. Dlo, this team isn't the Lakers. They can keep more than one young guy. Unless KD and Kyrie go to Brooklyn, they're keeping Dlo. |
