    The Nets court looks like a kindergarteners canvas

    Rockets might not get a single lottery pick out of all of it if were being honest

    I don't understand their uniform jerseys . . . is "Nets" in parentheses?

    Might not, or might get multiple. All depends on 2023, when the big-3 becomes FAs. Will they stick around or move on?

    Like the rockets are doing right now, no team is going to bottom out knowing they have no draft picks. They will just end up overpaying for borderline half stars like oladipo and stay mediocre

    Just another triple double. Harden will lead the league in assists. Forgot who made that claim on cf’s earlier but he’s the player who does a multitude of things for them offensively out of the big 3

    Nets now a league best 9-3 against teams above .500

    they’re 5-6 against teams below .500, they clearly don’t take them seriously

    It's clear now they wouldn't have lost a couple of days ago if they had Harden.

    What are you talking about? Harden got a lot of stops tonight. He's one of the main reasons why the Nets played good defensively tonight.

    Kawhi couldn’t back him down at all

    Kyrie is the one who was getting killed all game defensively

    This team is going to start breaking the 150 point barrier on the regular once they really start clicking. Defense will be there when they actually care.

    Also one thing, I really liked how Nash coached the game tonight. Im starting to think he's really flexible and he learns from his mistakes. I dont think Mike is a puppeteer coach behind the scenes.

    Can't believe they actually switched to Harden, who was probably all "robot, PLEASE".

    Not many players can back Harden down. He's too good of a post defender. If you're looking to beat Harden, you have to drive by him quickly.

    He did much better tonight. Brought Jordan back in when needed. Called the right timeouts.

    But having Harden back is the key. He can control the game and make the right plays. See how there was no panicking towards the end when Harden had it?
