I know some people on this page already quaking in their boots. They went on awe funfun hoping and praying that ol noodle arm Drew Brees would somehow get a win past the GOAT so they don't need to face him in their field. But in all of Sports there is one man I never bet against and that's Tom Brady

Next Sunday that imposter wearing the fake #12 up in Lambeau would be exposed once again in the playoffs like he always does when it matters most grin grin and it shall be glorious

This take is debatable.

Cousins was dropping unreal numbers in Sacramento before his injury.

I’m not so sure AD was better than him back then.
Their awards tell a different story. AD's mentality is what people questioned. You could argue they were at par offensively but on defense the gulf was always wide

He is forcing it.. He has been told it is the next important step he needs to take and he is in a rush to add that skill, forgetting it takes time and more importantly off season training and technique.
He needs to focus on his FT if you ask me rather than 3’s.

Kind of reminds me of Giannis who instead of focusing on improving his FT% is out there jacking up 3’s in a bid to expand his game and become un-guardable. Ironically, because of the way he plays, he would always find himself at the free throw line during critical moments of a game and will flop..We have seen this over and over again.

For both players, improving their FT is more important than the 3’s they have been jacking, more so for Giannis because they would always find themselves at the FT line because of how they play.

Giannis-57% FT%
Doncic-74% FT%
He would be averaging 35 a night if he cut down his 3 attempts to no more than 4 a game. At this point he's a horrendous 3pt shooter doing Westbrook numbers and it's hurting his overall efficiency.

It's insane too that someone so ridiculously skilled is so mid at free throws. Maybe the basketball gods leveling the playing field

I"ll have Butler,PG and Cousins over Davis said no one ever. Hell apart from maybe a couple of seasons, Davis has always been rated over Westbrook too. Heck even Giannis only nudged slightly ahead during His MVP seasons.

The reason why we are not having that discussion with Regards to the duo of Harden and KD is because Harden just recently signed. Once that duo gets sufficient game time, trust me it'll come up.
Lool Man's snuck in Butler, PG and Cousins like we won't notice.

- If Giannis leaves the bucks after 2 years, will he be paid a cent less than his Max money?

- Why should I argue from the perspective of the owners?

IT played his heart out in Boston, played through injury and even played after he lost his Sister, Yet when it was time to give him the max, he was termed “damaged Goods” and kept being passed around the league like a blunt.

Nobody is even willing to give him the vet minimum and you out there talking about being biased?
I feel for IT but for every IT there is a Chandler Parsons. Just saying

The league is littered with bad contracts and no one talks about that

Arguing or trying to rationalize and reason with a Trumpanzee at this point is a criminal waste of time. I am convinced beyond reasonable doubt that there is not a single one sane among them or a capable of any rational thought when it comes to Trump.

Hmmm, so in other words, you’re banking on them to win games by outshooting the opposing team?

You know that’s a trap right?

Can’t wait to see how it all unfolds grin
How big were Klay and Steph? Of course they can absolutely outshoot the other team. My worry is where their headspace is and how committed they are to each other and the sacrifices they would be willing to make.

Make we leave matter for Matthias, this is a slam dunk win for the Brooklyn Nets.
There is a level of talent that makes chemistry issues less relevant grin

Bruh! Imagine not been able to double team KD or Harden shocked wahala dy oh.

Harden and Cp3 took the warriors to 7 games, imagine what he would do with KD. Chai,
They definitely need to learn to play with each other and also get a serviceable wing + Center but the east is definitely in trouble.

I am kind of happy for the Nets sha, from been the laughingstock of the NBA without draft picks for many seasons to a Juggernaut within 7 years..
Their lack of size might be an issue but they can really bludgeon teams with their offense if they get their shit together and are ready to sacrifice. They can give all types of sound bites off the court but when they hit the floor it would be easy to see if they mean it or not

Can definitely see them adding a couple of role players to help them with their depth. But the key for me is Brooklyn did not lose anyone they absolutely couldn't afford to lose.

It's championship or bust IMO but they must not have the mentality that it would be handed to them. It won't

I agree with this.

Just saying, that will be a significant loss to them.
Allen is a role player at best. A guy like him can never be the difference between winning and losing a title. Holding on to Harris and Dinwiddie was more important IMO

They can get veteran glue guys like Ariza or any other defensive wingman that can shoot

Afromentalist:
They do have an entire season to figure out how to play together, and at least 2 of their superstars are not load managers a la Kawhi. So they will build up chemistry.

Main concern should be defense and the ball distribution and even coaching. I am no sure Nadh can handle that , but these are lesser problems.

KD and super teams though
Won de.

In today's league who is not assembling a super team or trying to do so.

They lost Jarrett Allen.

You don’t think that’s huge?

Im not sure if DeAndre can protect the rim like Jarrett.
They have cap room to get a serviceable big. As much as I'm not much of a fan of Harden or his game, you don't have the opportunity to get him and balk at that because of Jarrett Allen.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 7:55am On Jan 14, 2021
I still think Brooklyn won this trade sha. Being able to hold on to Kyrie and Dinwiddie and they still have small cap space to get one or two more bodies. They didn't lose nearly as much as I thought they would have

Indy are also looking good potentially

I think they are going to. Harden Kyrie and Durant on the floor is too much, all need the ball. You trade Kyrie and get pieces that dont need the ball to be successful. Plus you save some drama
KD on the other hand can play off the ball. Even Kyrie. The only absolutely ball dominant guy there is Harden. Personally I'm more worried about their mental makeup and how they respond when things don't go their way. KD is sensitive but low maintenance

Kyrie and Harden on the other hand are two of the most high maintenance divas in the league. I'm expecting that we see the best of Harden again now that he's gotten what he wants anyway.

Meanwhile they are people that swear Kyrie is acting up on purpose so he didn't get included in a potential trade. grin

I sense Harden is insurance of sorts for Kyrie's skoin skoin

Plus looking at the Nets record it can be argued that their depth might have been a tad overrated. Like it's always said the team that got the best player won the trade.

They didn't even lose Dinwiddie who can come back next season. Don't be suprised if Brooklyn trades Kyrie at this rate
