KD has 19 made field goals, and 17 turnovers through the 1st 3 games of this series this is 1 of the worst performances from a superstar ever
lolololol this man can pull up from 30 you cant block his shot 7 footer with unblockable jumper and handles Durant is a cheat code the reality is you always need great teammates, luck, home crowd and even the refs in your bag to win....
KD looks like he’s quit and is just ready for this season from hell to be over Nets have 1 of the worst home crowds in the NBA, and definitely the worst in these playoffs half the crowd was fans of the other team, and compare the atmosphere to any other team in these playoffs, and it is extremely subpar…didn’t even feel like a playoff game seemed like Nets were playing at a neutral venue instead of at home
I can't figure out what scenario is better for us this offseason: the Nets signing Kyrie to a max extension or letting him go and not signing him to that extension. The thing is I think Kyrie has more left in the tank than Durant, and his departure could have a chain effect that is overall negative. Or not, as it will open up cap space to sign others and fill more holes. Will be interesting to see what they do either way. We know Kyrie will want the max, and that the Nets will be looking for a hometown discount or some control with team options on the later years.
Harden looks the same. It always looks the same. Happened with Dream. Happened with TMac. Remember seeing it with Dirk as well. Wade. They all kinda look like more reserved versions of themselves and it's always around that 33-35 year mark. Then they really just can't do it anymore. I think last year was Harden/KDs last "real" year. Credit to Steph still looking spry.
KD literally averaged 30 this year…nobody was claiming Father Time then what’s happened to Harden is totally different, his finishing has fallen off a cliff…nothing about KD’s game has fallen off a cliff
KD is down 0-3. Lebron isn't even in the playoffs. Just because they can manufacture points in the regular season doesn't mean they can do it again the playoffs where the defenses ramp up and you have to overcome that. He isn't the same player anymore. Harden even moreso. All 3 are on the decline and it shows.
KD being down 0-3 is irrelevant…Celtics are the much better team now that KD is struggling and has now quit against Boston, Father Time just magically showed up for him in the last week and a half
So they probably try again next year with Simmons, then after that inevitably doesn’t work everyone bounces?
Agreed with this. You can't just go from "arguably best player in the world" to "old and washed" in 3 games. There's no need to make excuses for Durant. Boston's defense is just top tier, and Durant just couldn't find a way to overcome it. It's that simple.
Poster hates tanking so much is willing to say the stupidest sht to anyone who would bother to retort. logic will not persuade that one. Imagine saying dumb sht and say take that for data as a catch phrase.
A mix of things 1. Boston defense 2. 40+ minute maximum effort games to get here 3. Father time. Rocket River
