    You are kidding yourself if you think a coach can control Kyrie. Only contract money can control him in the long run.

    Brooklyn is the definition of WINNING THE GAMES YOU ARE SUPPOSE TO WIN
    Philly Lost
    Toronto Win Quality
    Indiana Lost
    Portland Win Meh
    Orlanda Win
    Washinton Win
    Toronto Win Quality
    Boston Lost
    Charlotte Win
    Atlanta Win Meh
    Indiana Win
    Washinton Win
    Toronto Win Quality
    Detroit Win
    Golden State Win
    Milwauki Win Quality
    Cleveland Win Quality
    Atlanta Win Meh
    Charlotte Win
    San Antonio Win

    They have Toronto's Number. The Raptors cannot do anything with them
    Milwauki and Even Cleveland are somewhat Quality wins IMO

    Portland and Atlanta feels meh to me
    (not that either are push overs but I just don't believe in either team)

    Everyone else is cellar dwellars - BUT YOU MUST WIN THOSE GAMES

    I think too many teams . . .esp teams in the 4 5 6 7 spots - give up games to cellar dwellars
    and that is why they not higher

    Win the games that you are suppose to win!!
    Honestly .. . I think the Rockets could have at least 5 more wins if they did this.

    Have you seen their offense/defense rankings since Nash has been fired?

    Of course. They won 12 in a row.

    What I'm saying is, people were blaming Kyrie, not Nash, for the implosion of the Nets. Now Kyrie is balling and Simmons is back in game shape, and it's because they changed the coach.

    It's the defense and rebounding. Vaughn is holding them accountable and he shortened their rotation. This is good article explaining Vaughn's impact. It wasn't just Kyrie's issues.

    Good thing Harden is not of a jewish faith. Let's see how they do without KD pacing them - bet they'll fall apart once more with a headcase at the helm and no one to rein (sooth, in KD's case) him in. Harden's half effort would be better than Kyrie running the show. In regular season, anyway.

    is he talking about himself? because he quite literally missed half of the season because he wouldn't get vaxxed causing Harden and KD to play extra minutes leading to multiple injuries and losses.

    yeah, sounds like Kyrie is actually taking a shot at himself, but anything for clicks I guess

    if Nets had this version of Harden in place of Ben Simmons along with Nash gone, they would be meeting Boston in the ECF

    Kyrie's been on good behavior for two months and already wants to be rewarded for it :D
