    @dice and love how he and Mills are playing together. Mills really has been the beneficiary of the Kyrie fiasco. No way Mills is getting the court time or shots with Kyrie there.

    The shame for Brooklyn was that Harden was actually starting to play decent just before he got crook.

    Some of these lineups in the last 3 games, Nash would never ever thought would happen given their original roster and the depth of experienced players. Great to watch though.

    @act-crusader ESPN has reported that the Nets are considering bringing Kyrie Irving back to the team for road games. I think this is a mistake. Introducing a guy (albeit a star) who is not following the rules like the rest of the team may have unknown consequences and affect the locker room chemistry, not to mention that I wouldn't trust him to be responsible and minimise risk of getting covid19 and spreading it to the rest of his team. The lack of consistency may cause confusion or angst for a team who are already in first place in the EC

            @canefan yes, sorry wrote my answer in a hurry. I meant I agree with the Nets original (and current, still) position i.e. not letting him play just the road games and never practicing, as its horrible for team chemistry etc. I think them wavering on that would be a mistake.

              @act-crusader Reggie Miller is one of my all time favourites. A stone cold killer in a big game.

              Another example of toxic NBA fans. Apparently to the modern NBA fan, Reggie was shit.

              I loved his love for Spike Lee. And vice-versa.

                Yeah. It's not like they are desperate, they r in 1st place. Better to load manage KD if that's what they r worried about

                  He may as well also engineer a trade for Kyrie to join him and get them to draft Bronny...

                    @canefan The Nets have a lot of players out, so you can understand why they might want to use Irving when he is available.

                    The NBA has postponed the Nets' next two games because of the COVID-19 surge that has decimated Brooklyn's roster.

                    Brooklyn's home games Sunday against the Denver Nuggets and Tuesday against the Washington Wizards have been postponed, the NBA announced Sunday.

                    The Nets currently have 10 players in the league's health and safety protocols, including stars Kevin Durant, James Harden and Kyrie Irving.

                      @voodoo this was a hot take that BS said on his show. Said he is throwing it out there that a journo would cite an "anonymous source" saying something along the lines to create another year of speculation of where he will go.

                        DeRozan put on a clinic today in drawing the foul and getting to the line. Didn’t matter who the Lakers threw at him too.

                        Lakers had several chances to tie or even win that game.

                            @mariner4life one of my favourite players. Just wish there were a couple of different/better pieces at Toronto to give him a genuine shot to get past Lebron.

                            His efficiency is sky high. Only shoots the odd 3 ball. Up there with KD, Leonard and CP3 for the best mid range game’s in the league.

                              well, it's all going well in Laker land

                              Blown out by the Suns yesterday, who weren't even playing that great.

                              The Lakers are poorly put together, the fan base is piling in to Westbrook, Davis is hurt again, and was playing shit anyway. LBJ carrying them, and that's going to take a toll on that old body.

                              Still a very even season, with only the Magic and the Pistons being really shit teams.

                                BBall is a young man's game, and LA got rid of all their best young guys. It reminds me of the Kobe/Nash/Howard LAL, really good on paper, but less so in practice

                                          I only watch him when Adams is playing him, but shiny cow the bloke can shoot. Never saw much else from him, but you don't need much else when you can drain it from 30ft with 6'7 of muscle in your face.
