NFT: LBJ/Lakers vs. Nets...

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 12/18/2018 8:20 pm
NBA TV showing this one. Both Ball & Russell have both looked good tonight. I haven't seen much of Nets this season, but they don't look half bad. Hopefully, for their sake, Levert comes back 100%.

& I think LeBron to the Lakers has been bad for the NBA. The finals are going to be worse without LeBron in it and the east coast is in bed for the majority of games LeBron plays.

I don't know. I think most people were getting tired of Cavs vs. Warriors. Now we'll at least have Kawhi's Raps, Kyrie's Celts, The Greek Freak, or Philly in the Finals. Some new blood.

The NBA has been pretty damn compelling this season. A lot of good teams, stories, & games.
F Lebron.

a little more competitive balance continues this summer. KD leaves Golden State for the Clippers, Knicks, etc., maybe Kawhi leaves Toronto for the Clippers, Knicks, etc, Lebron doesn't land a second superstar - the league would be wide open, until Anthony Davis fucks it up again.
Nets looking good

Backcourt is dinwiddie and Russell at full speed with the ball for their 8 minute spurts is hard for opponents to guard
I still think AD ends up in Boston

My guess, though I know he signed with Klutch & LBJ's righthand man, Rich Paul.
If Nets hold on,

It would be their sixth straight win.
LBJ drills a 3 right before the end of the 3rd.

90 83 Brooklyn going into the 4th. Very good game.

Nice win for Brooklyn.

6 in a row.
things are coming together for the nets  
Eric on Li : 12/18/2018 9:58 pm : link
impressive without levert and considering how bad they looked during that losing streak.
I’m enjoying this Nets team..  
Sean : 12/18/2018 9:59 pm : link
They are playing very well.

The Nets were tragically bad in the closing minutes during that eight game losing streak, but they didn’t actually look bad. They had a lot of bad luck, some horrendous officiating and a couple of their guys were clearly ‘learning how to win’.

That’s what was so frustrating. The team has legitimate talent and looks like they’re firmly entrenched in the 6-10 seed range. So impressed by what Sean Marks has built.
Nice win for the Nets........  
Simms11 : 12/18/2018 10:29 pm : link
Confidence is building. They are really a deep team and their bench can just keep things rolling when they come in. Nice core of players. Marks doing a really nice job. And they now out from under the Ghost of Billy King past!
Phew

I was afraid this was going to be a political thread.

All the way with Lebron James!
Nice to see allen  
hitdog42 : 12/19/2018 6:05 am : link
Stuff lebron to start the game as well.
Btw kuzma is one of the biggest chuckers in the league- plays no defense- don’t love him as a starter at all

Dlo situation with the nets will be very interesting at year end contract wise

I agree. My fear, however, is that they target a few of the top FA PGs and fail to sign one while DLo signs elsewhere. IMO Dinwiddie,who I love, was signed to be a backup PG who can also play meaningful minutes when opposing teams go small. In a perfect world we nail down a top flight PG but that’s far from given despite the cap room. DLonis making a case to be the future of the team, but I’m still not completely sold on it.
