    Now you guys are seeing the "team" ball you wanted to see lmao. This is what happens when Harden or Durant or I guess Mills arent doing everything on every play.

    Bucks looks even better than last year, the defense and offense are both scary. Bunch of shooters on offense, crazy length and toughness on defense and rebounds

    The nets look really bad. The front court is non existent. A bunch of old men and inexperienced Claxton. So much injury concerns on the entire roster. No depth at all. Abysmally bad defense. This is a great time to be a Rockets fan.

    Patty Mills is the only Australian they need.

    I have dreams and fantasies about the Rockets being stacked from their own draft picks. Then receiving top picks 2023-2026 from the Nets down the road. :p:p:p:p:p:p

    same talk when they barely beat Orlando in Harden’s 1st game and lost B2B to the Cavs…when the Nets finish 1st in the East different tunes will be sung

    Idk man I typically don’t overact too often. Who is the starting center for the nets? Claxton looks awful. Aldridge can’t stay in front of anyone. Looks completely washed. Who is going to play defense? Blake griffin? If patty mills didn’t become steph curry this would be over already. If kyrie is out the year, when does Durant rest? Griffin and Aldridge going to play every game? Doubtful. Where’s the depth? This team looks horrible

    It's one half into the first game of the season against the defending champs. They'll figure it out.

    Don't forget - Nets were without Durant and Kyrie for different long stretches of time last season. Yet, Harden dicked around and got the Nets to the 2nd seed.

    it’s the 1st half of the 1st game of the season

    Nets don’t need to play defense during the regular season…they didn’t last year while having injuries all over the place and still finished 2nd in the East with ease

    this is all the same stuff that was being said in Harden’s 1st game in Orlando…they don’t look good, they can’t defend, they have no depth…we saw how the regular season ended up going for them

    I’m not debating that. They’ll make the playoffs. Keep in mind Harden declined to commit to the nets when asked by reporters. I doubt he stays if his options at center are nick Claxton and a retired guy. There are like 5 guys on this team who have large roles who are serious injury concerns. How much rest can they get this year with no depth? So much could go wrong

    what were their options at center last year when they were 2nd seed in the east again?
