    I saw Kimbo's videos some years ago. The one where he hosted backyard fights for people that had no other means of finding decent work to make money, for themselves and or their families. Mainly young guys and sometimes gals. I was thinking with this pandemic and all how much a worse predicament the lives of those people are. I know Kimbo died years back, and he was a genuinely honest and fair fighting manager, so that just makes it worse.

    Wait, so the Nets already got Mills. Then:



    And now the Nets might sign LMA again?

    Irving / Mike James
    Harden / Mills
    Harris / Claxton
    Durant / Griffin
    LMA / Millsap

    Last season, the Nets needed depth and good big men. They addressed both aspects. They're complete now. That's a really strong 10-man rotation. Alize Johnson, TLC and Bruce Brown are all decent spot minutes players too.

    If it wasn't over before, it's over now.

    That rotation is unfair without LMA already, is there any way they don't win it all this year? They could probably survive a couple of injuries and still be fav's by a long shot....

    you left out James Johnson. They signed him too which huge for their defense and toughness.

    Sheesh man. That lineup is deadly. Shooting. Skills and smarts galore albeit some past their primes. 48 minutes of elite elite ball handling.

    What else am I missing ??

    TLC and Mike James aren’t there anymore.

    Harden / Mills / Jevon Carter
    Irving / Cam Thomas / Bruce Brown
    KD / James Johnson
    Griffin / Millsap
    LA / Claxton

    Not to mention the buyout market && JJ Redick is still out there.

    You're both right! I gotta brush up on roster changes.

    I guess Mills made James expendable. I thought James was solid though, in the times I watched him play.

    Is there any way Harden messes this up thou? Most likely Harden will become a facilitator since he loses his shot in the playoffs...

    The first year had nothing to do with refs they rolled the league.

    any team can get lucky and win 1 championship...that they didnt win more (except the other one where they were mightily pushed by refs) just proves my point....

    Luck was the Raptors and the Bucks. Warriors destroyed the league that year.
