    Imagine having the best spot-up shooter in the league, on your team.

    ...and he's the 4th option. Ridiculous. o_O

    just caught the highlights. They’re officially un-guardable. The one play even harden was wide open for 3 this is ridiculous

    They should just leave Harden open at the 3 point line, statistically He's the worst shooter out of Kyrie, Durant and Harris lmao

    Lol. Harden would have much higher percentages if he was dounled and triple teamed. The harden ankle breaking videos wouldn't have gone viral if he didn't make the shot.

    It wouldnt be the playoffs without Harden losing a teammate to injury.

    Thank goodness he has some depth on that team, plus KD and Irving.

    I wish Lamarcus would of been able to stick around. I've decided I want Harden to win a championship at all costs. Screw the NBA world for underrating him when he was in Houston.

    Green is a big loss. Harden just can never catch a damn break. They won’t need him for Boston. But Phili or The Bucks they for sure will.

    i think hes cursed or something...hes been perhaps the best player in the last 5 years but... theres no way he'll win it...i expect either kyrie or durant or harden to go down with injury and other strange things to happen on his way to the finals

    folks still waiting to find any reason to act like this nets team isn't about to win a title. quit trying to deny it. They're head and shoulders above the next best team. As long as those big 3 are playing, there isn't anyone stopping them. They're winning it and I'm going to be happy to see Harden get what he deserves when it happens

    I haven't been watching basketball closely but I thought Jeff was a huge part of the team. If this moves DJ into the rotation, this is a HUGE blow to the squad ,lol

    Kyrie is returning to Boston, we’ll see if the fans keep it to booing and normal trash talk or get out of pocket and start hurling racial slurs or saying or doing very disrespectful things

    Utah fans did what they do to Morant’s family, we’ll see if Boston fans end up living up to their reputation

    I really had to laugh at Boston sports media throwing Kendrick Perkins out there to say he never experienced racism from the fans in Boston so they can say “see, Kendrick Perkins is black, and never had a problem, so racism here is way overblown”

    Marcus Smart says otherwise

    countless other players say otherwise

    just because not all black players get called racial slurs doesn’t mean it’s not a problem there

    we’ll see if Boston fans live up to their reputation

    IIRC, Steve Francis missed a good chunk of time with plantar fasciitis back in the day.
